My mom turned 50 this year and she had always wanted to take her family on a Vacation for her 50th birthday. So she asked all of their children if they were interested in going on vacation with them. The only child that wanted to hang with them was me and my family. So we were treated to a wonderful vacation to Southern California. It was so much fun and we were so busy each day. So here goes. All about our vacation! 
We figured we better stop at a restaurant and have some breakfast before we go to the airport! Luckily we didn't have to fly out until 10:30. So we had sometime in the morning to eat and get to the airport.
here we are we just parked our car in long term parking and grabbed our luggage. Then we hopped on the shuttle from the parking lot to the airport to check in our baggage. The boys are so excited they can't hardly stand themselves.

The boys are so excited they can't hardly stand themselves.We had no problems with checking our luggage in (I was a little concerned cause your luggage can only be 50 lbs each and if you go over its lots of $$$.) and then you have security and that's not much fun to have to go through. But the boys did great and before we knew it we were on our way!
the boys watching another airplane load its passengers and all of their luggage! (they both were not sure what to think about all of this flying stuff)
Shawn and I just chillin' waiting for our airplane
Bry just waiting just watching everything going on around the airport

Shawn and Kode! Our seats were split up so Shawn took one boy and I took the other one. This is the first time that the boys have ever flown before. Kode did great!
Bry's first time on an airplane. He was a little nervous but he did well.
the flight was only 2 hours and 15 minutes long. Not bad! We flew on Jet Blue and they had serious radio and direct TV for each of their passengers. I really liked that everyone could choose their own thing. It made the flight much more pleasant. (the boys watched cartoons the hole time and I enjoyed HGTV) We flew into Long Beach. I was very impressed with that airport. I loved that it was very small and you could get off of the plane quickly and your luggage didn't take long to come out and then you were off to the rental place in a timely fashion.

After we dropped off all of our luggage at our rental house we decided to do a little exploring. We all decided to go down to Huntington Beach Pier and enjoy the water and the views!
Shawn just soaking it all in! It was so calm and relaxing. Not many people around and you could hear the water coming to the shore. It was so beautiful!!

SUCH FUN!! I L.O.V.E. the Long Beach Airport. It's like stepping back to 1950's noir. I'm so glad you had a great time.
