Beach Birthday

David's birthday was this past Sunday so we celebrated with a trip to the beach. David, Lenae, Joel, and I packed up and headed south to Doheny Beach in Dana Point. We stopped at David's favorite donut shop, Tastee Donut and Burger, and got chocolate donuts on our way out of Pasadena. It's a dive for sure, but the donuts are very, well, tasty! Then we headed south to Irvine, where we stopped and ate lunch at On the Border. Their chicken fajitas never tasted so yummy! Then, we were off to the beach. David pulled out his new surfboard and rode the waves while Lenae, Joel and I relaxed on the beach.

Doheny Beach is a great place to learn to surf and it has a nice little cove area, too. We took Joel and let him take his first step into the ocean. He seemed to enjoy it!

We headed back and made a Sonic stop in Fullerton on the way home. David went out with his guys' group for Texas barbeque at Barn Burner on Sunday night.

On Monday night we invited our neighbors and friends over for chocolate cake and ice cream. It was great to have some of our favorite people there to celebrate with us. All in all, I think he had a pretty good 27th birthday.
