What is a trip to southern California without a day trip to Balboa island?  Mom was savvy and grabbed us some tickets for a boat ride around Newport harbor to see all the Christmas lights - it was all sorts of delightful.

Then it was off to Ruby's at the end of the pier for some dinner:

And toppin' off the night with a Bal Bar or two, or three...

and lots of happy couple shots:

P.S. This is my pose for the next couple of weeks - notice the polite pinky up ;)
