Weekend Visitors and Valentine's

This last weekend, we had visitors...again.  My mom says "Everyone's your friend when you live in California."  Mark's best friend and his girlfriend came to visit us for a couple days.  We had a lot of fun with them.  We took them to our favorite restaurant in Newport, The Crab Cooker (they have the best clam chowder), we also went to LA.  On Valentine's Day we went to Knott's Berry Farm (but nothing can beat Disneyland) and then to a BBQ restaurant called Lucilles which was very good.  The whole day was very fun and we are happy that we were able to spend time with friends.  Here are some pictures of us at Knott's.

I did NOT want to go on this rollarcoaster, or any for that matter.
Mark said my family wouldn't believe I went on this, so he had to get a picture of it. 
(P.S. I hated it)

He's excited

Ants

Apparently, Irvine is just one huge ant hill.  This was our third time that we have had ants, it's not fun.  We even live on the top floor of our apartment complex, but somehow they manage to get into our apartment and come out of the strangest places.  Thank goodness they are gone, and hopefully they will not come back!

Surfin' USA...

...Well not quite, but Mark has been surfing Southern California.  Mark has gone out surfing a couple times since we moved here, but on Saturday he finally caught his first wave!!  He was so excited about it and wanted me to see how he's improved, so on Monday we went to Huntington Beach and Mark went out while I watched and took pictures.  I was impressed with how he did.
