SUPER-CALIF....---(SAN DIEGO)

We had the most wonderful family vacation last week! The kids decided last spring to plan a little family reunion and San Diego was the destination. They chose to leave their kids home with the other set of grandparents this trip. We certainly missed having them with us but it made it much easier doing things without so many babies and carseats.
I don't think we could have fit one more thing in our schedule! Some of the things we did were:
Old Town San Diego (yummy Mexican food there), Mission Beach, some surfed, shopped, ate at Little Italy, Tide pools in LaJolla, Sea World (did everything possible!), Bob Hope Memorial, San Diego Temple grounds, Breakfast with Shamu,
It was such a fun place to go as a family - I highly recommend it! Eating at a very delicious Mexican Food Restaurant

And then....

Jessica and I headed to Mesa, AZ "early" Sunday morning. We had to stop at Tawnya's for a little nap before we continued on! We got to Shara's about 7:00 p.m. It's been a long time since we've drove down there and it's still a long drive! I flew back Tuesday morning and Jessica is going to stay down there for a while. It was nice to see everyone but it was a very quick trip for me! Abby and Aunt Nappy having breakfast

So cute in curlers

Watching Baby Einstein as Abby gets her hair curled. (Again, very few pictures!)

Conference Weekend

Is he just the cutest little guy ever! He found a bowl that fit perfectly on his head!
Oops - forgot to turn it

The Valentine Fam came for a visit for conference weekend! I took very few pictures - (not sure where Lucas was at the time!) We sure love to have them come!

NAME THAT FACE!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
