Artsy!


Yesterday we went on our date to Laguna Beach to see the Pageant of the Masters and the Festival of Arts. This was our fifth year going and I just love it more and more each year. The first year we went we found this little alcove off to the side of PCH and from it you could see the most beautiful wedding spot. That was in 2004. In 2005 we ended up getting married at just that spot! Thus, the pageant is very special to us because if it weren't for this special event, we wouldn't have found that special place. In 2004 we decided to make it a summer tradition so that we would always have an excuse to get to Laguna each summer. Andy did miss one show in 2006 because of work travel, but I was able to bring Karen as my date along with a couple of our good friends. We try to expose different people to the event each year because so many have never heard of it and it truly is a site to see! The show takes place as soon as it is dark and consists of living art. You really have to see it to understand. But if you would like to go you must purchase your tickets in January to get good Saturday seats. Our date was great! We shared our time with Karen and Pete and we always love an excuse to hang out with them. It was weird having no babies in the car though. I kept turning around on the drive down to check on them because they were being so quiet! Hahaha! Two of our other good friends watched them for the day and said they were very good. You have to wonder if people are truthful or if they just don't want to make you feel bad because your children are stinkers! Or if your children are truly angels for other people, but just not for you!

These pictures were taken in that special alcove overlooking our wedding location. There was a wedding going on and it made me really nostalgic. I can't believe it will be 3 years next month!
