Back in The O.C.

Sunday afternoon was a quiet one. We stayed home, and the kids played in the yard. Gus' sister came over shortly after we arrived, and stayed until the kids went to bed. It was fun, and uneventful!

The next day, we went to have lunch at Papou's restaurant-- a big hit, as always!
From there, we went to the nearby park, and then to the Fun Zone out at the end of the Balboa Peninsula.
Both kids had a great time playing the arcade games, especially skee ball!
And Gus wrote the ferris wheel with his favorite little girl!
Once Nikos had earned an adequate number of tickets for a "decent" prize (not the one he really wanted, but alas...) we took the ferry across to Balboa Island! I hadn't been there in a long time.

We walked around and checked out the crazy Christmas decorations, which were just starting to go up. The boat parade goes right by these houses, so they get all decked out. We all especially loved this one house-- and this was just one little piece of it! It was so elaborate!!
And that was pretty much our day! Gus' sister came by for dinner after she got off work, so the kids got more quality time with their theia. And Gus and I went to go see a movie. Fun!
