We just got back from a fantastic family vacation! It included all of the musts: thrills, fun, relaxation, laughter, late nights, and sunshine! We started in St. George at Sam's grandma's condo for a few days. We love going down there to swim, shop, and eat at In-n-Out. Chase took his first unassisted steps at the condo, which was a thrill. From there, we drove to Southern California for a day at the beach, 3 days at Disneyland, and the BYU/San Diego State game. It's was so nice to spend the week together without any distractions of regular life.
Here's a little photo summary and commentary of our trip:
THE BEACH
Our family at the beach. We went there when we arrived at California, but the weather wasn't great, so we didn't get in our suits. We still had fun playing, though. (I tried through the whole trip to get a good family shot, but Chase is always checking something else out... I think it was a bird this time.)
Chunka getting his toes (and pants) wet.
After a long car ride, Chase was so thrilled get out and get dirty. What a cutie!
DISNEYLAND
We loved meeting the characters...
And riding the rides...
and meeting Tinkerbell's fairy friends...
and playing...
and being with family...
and watching parades...
and cheering on the Cougars...
and spending time with Grams and Papa...
(My parents joined us for 2 days in Disney and the football game. So nice of them to come help out!)
and experiencing everything Disney has to offer...
(This is what Sam chose for our lunch one day. A GIANT turkey leg. It was good!)
and smiling...
When it was all done, we played so hard, we were all tuckered right out!
