Princess Party

Hopefully to become a new tradition!

California Adventure!

We just returned from our much needed and anticipated vacation! We began our adventure Friday evening, driving to Las Vegas, where we stayed in the luxurious Beck Hotel! After arriving at midnight, Andrew & his dad stayed up half the night playing Rock Band!

















Saturday afternoon, we arrived in San Diego, just in time to hop on a ship for a two-hour cruise around the bay. Our thanks to Danny & Kristi, for purchasing this cruise for their honeymoon, and not using it!

















Who knew that San Diego was home to submarines, air craft carriers and naval ships? The men in the group especially enjoyed these!
















As well as the sea lions!

That night (and the next two), we stayed in the also luxurious Kringle hotel in Oceanside! The photo doesn't do it justice!

Sunday, we attended church with Whitney, and then took a stroll on the beach.

Where some of us got wet :) Very wet, in fact! A highlight of our beach trip was spotting dolphins in the ocean! (And for Andrew, definitely the kind man who offered to let him borrow his boogie board!)

Monday, we spent in Disneyland! Thanks again to Danny & Kristi who did all the legwork for our Give a Day, Get a Day! We had a great time! Biggest rush--definitely Splash Mountain! (And next time, I'm taking a change of clothes!)

Labor Day . . .

When no one comes over to barbeque and play with us.

Back to School!

The first day of Junior High--and I think they all look too young!
