Corner News-January 2, 2016!

Welcome to the first official post of 2016!  2015 was an amazing year, but we want to make 2016 even better.

But, before 2016 even got started, we took a family vacation to Morro Bay.  This beautiful beach destination is only about 2 hours away from us, so it’s nice for a day trip.

After we arrived and had lunch, we started walking down the street for some shopping.  But before we could get anywhere, we saw some seals sunbathing on a deck.  Why not take a picture of them?

Next, we did some store looking.  It’s like window shopping, but we actually go into the store and look around.  This particular store always has these star lights in it, so Haley and I like to look at them.  Of course, I took a picture of the pink ones.

Next, we went to mom and my favorite store.  It is called the Garden Gallery and it has some beautiful items that it has for decoration.  They had a lot of Christmas Trees up that had different decorations.

I also saw this adorable old fashion car in The Garden Gallery.  How cute is it?

So after all of our hard shopping, we had to go get candy.  There’s a great little place called Kelly’s Candies that we get all of our sweets from.  Haley decided to pull an Ariana Grande and “lick” the candy before taking it home.

But the staple of the store is the Dutch mints.  They are hard candy shells with a soft mint inside.  Mom and I always buy a bag or we will be sad.

And finally, we made it to the beach!  It was an absolutely beautiful day, so why not make a video to document the day?

I hope that you enjoyed our little mini vacation.  It was a great way to spend our New Years Eve and it was a great way to start off the new blog year!
