San Diego

Dad had a convention in San Diego with MBNA over the weekend. As I get older, it seems like less and less of an opportunity to do what we used to do as a family, and that's going as a group to these conventions. You see, when I was little we got to fly around the country once a year and go to a location the annual convention would be at. So as a family, we've been to Birmingham Alabama, Savannah Georgia, Memphis Tennessee, and so on. This year it was just a quick drive down the 5 to San Diego. I was on the fence about going because of school and work, but I ended up getting to go, and we had quite a fun weekend just relaxing while dad was in workshops and meetings. We barely left hotel property the entire time, and I must say, it was amazing to just not stress about the day to day stuff.




 How cool is it when your hotel has their own seals?
Mom was toying with her camera alot. She's getting really good!













 Shells on the beach hurt.

Yosemite with The Beards

A very fun day with fun friends from Las Vegas!! Friends that we consider our extended family!! We had many laughs and tears throughout the day! Making memories with The Beards. Casey & Julie can to see us over Presidents Day weekend and spur of the moment we decided to drive to Yosemite. It is beautiful in the winter. I can now say I have seen Yosemite in all four seasons. It is truly a gorgeous place to go. God knew what he was doing when he created Yosemite!
