Birthday Surprise

As Jess will openly admit - she wasn’t looking forward to her 27th birthday this year. Being that we don’t exactly have a vast social network out here on the west cost yet, and faced with having to spend her actual birthday on a plane to Singapore, Jess actually thought her birthday would be a rather low-key event this year.

Oh, how wrong she was.

To mark her 27th birthday this year, Jess’ family flew in to surprise her. They arrived in Orange County on Thursday and surprised her at dinner later that night. Jess and her family spent the following day in and around Laguna Beach and then we all headed to a resort just North of San Diego called Rancho Bernardo Inn for the weekend. The original plan was to spend Sunday night back in Dana Point, but Jess and I ended up having to grab a plane to Singapore that afternoon. Not exactly the best way to spend your “official” birthday, but hopefully everything else made up for that 17 hours stuck in a plane.
