    After the horses we went to check out the peacocks that lived at the country club. The girls were showing pretty good restraint by not chasing them across the yard.

    After spending some time with these horses Dahlia and Monti were both trying to work both of us into buying them a horse as a pet. I must admit they were pretty easy to love but I’m not sure they would play ball like Dahlia wanted them to do.

    At Venice beach the kids looked for shark teeth while we watched the sunset. Dahlia was so excited to see the sun set into the ocean. She just wasn’t quite sure what would happen when that sun touched the water. She kept telling me, “This is my first sunset ever.”

    Joe’s mom took the grandkids back to the hotel while we grabbed some dinner. She had bought a box full of funny teeth so all of them could have a set. Dahlia had a hard time keeping her teeth in she was laughing so hard.

    Billy and Lori did a really nice job making sure their reception was fun for everyone. They had a large craft table set up near the pool where people worked on making custom masks for the evenings. The masks turned out really great and it entertained the kids for a long time.
