It was a gorgeous day so we hang out in the backyard enjoying the breath taking view of the lush hills.

Tuan must say something hilarious 'cause we are all laughing so hard! |

In California evenings are very brisk once the sun goes down but tonight it was unusually warm and we were able to sit outdoor comfortably without having to throw on a sweater.
