SoCal

What to do on vaca:

1. Replace a boogie board with an air-mattress. My family was the coolest family at the beach.

2. Ride the accelerator at Knott's Berry Farm.

3. When getting on a ride, don't look at the person who was in the seat before you were. It may or may not freak you out.

4. If you plan on showing up at a restaurant with a group of 27, call ahead of time.

5. Buy It's its at the grocery store. 350 calories of ice cream in between 2 cookies covered in chocoloate- so worth it.

6. Watch Baby Mama and quote it even more.

7. Boys remember- 5 hours of golf for you does NOT equal 2 hours of shopping for us. 5 hours of golf = at LEAST 5 hours of shopping.

8. Wear sunscreen. and lots of it.

9. Embrace the humid-curly hair with the no-makeup face.

10. 1 huge family, or 3 big families, or 5 families. However you look at it, it means 6 cans of sunscreen, repeating every story 8 times, 10 boxes of Its-its, 12 boxes of soda, 15 bags of garbage, getting everywhere 30 minutes later than expected, and at least 100 laughs.
