Scott's birthday - We had a wonderful evening celebrating Scott as we putted around on a duffy (electric) boat in the Balboa Peninsula. It is such a great excuse to be outside, on the water, enjoying the ocean breezes and the sunset. I invited all of our Stowell family. Rob and Claire and Robby were out of town, but the rest of us enjoyed every minute of our evening together! We rode over to a beach front restaurant and picked up yummy appetizers to dine on throughout the evening. I love the way the boat takes away any distractions except for enjoying one another's company.
Scott's taking his job very seriously. Michael took over the reins so Scott could just "chill".
Haydin Adrienne was our youngest guest of the evening. It was her first big outing and she was amazing!
Ahhh, a night away without the baby, MBA school, or FIDM.
The Big Guy and Stacy. Wouldn't be the same without them!
I love you Scottie!!
We couldn't resist the allure of the Balboa Fun Zone lit up at night. So we docked the boat (illegally) and slipped over to the carousel.
Michael and Candice's first time away from the baby. (She was just a few feet below in Aunt Stacy's arms.)
Nicole - hamming it up. Dan - with a look of fear and trepidation!
It was actually quite beautiful and soothing up there in the dark, looking out over the lights and the water.
Then, Candice goaded Nicole into jumping on the bungee trampoline by getting on herself (six weeks after giving birth to a baby!). The sounds effects on the video are hilarious!! Sorry, I don't have some video clips to share.
