California Trip!!!

Alicia I stoll thease pictures from you I hope you don't mind. Your such an awesome photagrapher I couldn't help it. Any way a little over a week ago I started feeling like I just needed to get out of here for a little bit. I wanted to just go on a trip. Of course it would have been better if I didn't have to take my kids along but that is how it goes. I texed Alicia to see if she wanted to come with. I thought that she prob couln't cause they are right in the middle of building a house but to my suprise she said she could come. The next day we packed up the kids and headed out. It was a long drive to say the least. Jaxon and Wade never stopped fighting. The babies did pretty good though. The first day we went to the beach and it was so much fun. We swam in the ocean and road the waves. I miss the beach. That night we went to Knotts Scary Farm. It was pretty fun but for some reason I got off of one of the rollercoasters feeling so weired. Then I felt sick. I think it was a combination of things that did it. I was so tiered from the drive and I had a bad cold and it didn't help that it was 2 in the morning. Alicia was such a good friend. She drove me home. I held my puke in all the way home but as soon as I stepped out of the car i bent over and puked my guts out. It was Awesome!!! Alicia just stood thier in support. I felt better afterward anyway. Thanks for being such a good friend Alicia.


The next day we went to the El Toro air force base and road in a helium balloon. It was pretty cool. It was kinda windy so they only let us go up 200 feet in the air. I think we were all scared. I can't imagine going up 400 feet witch is what it usually dose. Wile we waited the boys had fun climbing in the trees and dropping from the branches.
The next day we went to D Land. It was awesome cause we got in for free. Thanks Jonny. The boys had so much fun meeting Mickey Mouse. Wade told Mickey that he was his best friend (along with grandma Hoagy of course). We got home from D Land at about 10:30 at night. Alicia and I both looked at our sleeping kids in the back of the car and then at eachother. We were both thinking the same thing. "Lets drive all night." We packed up in about an hour and left. We decided we would both stay awake all night talking to keep eachother awake. We stopped and the gas station and stocked up on energy drinks. The whole night is a blurr. I don't remember half of the stuff we talked about but I remember laughing so hard and just feelin compleetly delusional. All in all it was a fun trip. One that I will surely remember and laugh about for years to come.

hi boob! It was so good to see you two weeks in a row! Too bad we dont get a word in edgewise with all our kids running around. It will be so nice when they are like 10 and we can have a conversation again! Does your mom have Noelles boogie board?

Hi Merivale - Yes, it is in my garage - give me a call so we can arrange to get it back to you.

Dianna and Alicia - thanks for making the weekend so much fun. I know you were both stressed with Jaxon and Wade - but they are really good boys, just full of energy. And Meribelle and Kingston are amazingly sweet. We had a blast.
