Spring Break- Disneyland, Wild Animal Park, & Toes

Jared, Audra and I went to Disneyland at the start of spring break. Audra hasn't been in a couple years, but Jared wouldn't go on any of the fast rides with her, so we stuck to more mild rides,like Pirates of the Carribean. Yo ho yo ho....

San Francisco here we come! Dec 6, 2009

We took a three day weekend trip to SanFrancisco to celebrate our wedding anniversary, 29 years! This is only the second time we have gone away together, there have always been too many responsibilities because our anniversary falls between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and we have a big family. But this year the time was right. We had a wonderful weekend. We took a tour and saw a play. Rode the BART and the cable cars. Walked, talked, laughed, dined, shopped, took pictures (tons of pictures). Really just enjoyed hanging out together. The kids survived fine without us. They even sent us a bottle of champagne! We look forward to taking more trips together. Chicago? New York?

Hawaii! 6/09
