I would like to start by thanking our fabulous friends and family who housed us on this trip. First we have the Soules family, then the Brown family, then the Saunders family. Thank you for making it a great trip!
We stopped in Victorville and spent a night with Brian, Brooke, and Lana. Adelaide and Lana had a great time together. I think they remembered they were friends back in the day before they moved away.
We went to the mall and let them play in a sweet kids area. Then they got Kung Fu Panda toys.
They really had a blast.
The next day we ended up in Disneyland. How it happened again I'm not sure, I think we're addicted.
This was Adelaide's crowning achievement. She was finally tall enough to ride the Go Coaster in Toon Towne. It was her favorite ride ever. I held on to her while she kept her hands in the air and squealed with joy. My little daredevil.
When we went last October she didn't get any mouse ears. Now she has "Mimmie" ears as she calls them.
The Disney crew.
The next day we landed at our final destination, Jef and Robyn's house. I love La Quinta in March.
Addie surfed,
and played in the sand.
We made a short trip over to Joshua Tree National Park one of the days. There is a section of the park called Jumbo Rocks which totally rocked our California world.
It consists of gargantuine rocks towering in the middle of the desert. Super cool if I do say so myself.
We spent a few hours climbing our little legs off and the kids especially had a great time. They can roam, and hike, and feel on top of the world all at the same time.
Our next trip we are planning on camping at Jumbo Rocks because we loved it so much. The best part is that every woman I saw there roamed around in a bikini. I want to do that.
Last but not least, I stocked up at my favorite store (and your favorite) Trader Joe's. Can we please get one of these in Utah? I will beg, work, plead, cower, whatever it takes. This place seriously rocks. What are my favorite things you ask? Their Indian simmer sauces are delicious and their Joe Joe's are better than Oreos. I also love their selection of nuts and pastas. Oh, their dark chocolate pretzel thins are to die for.
Here's to wishin'...
