Sarah and I visited the San Diego when I first met Sarah's grandparents. As most people do we fell in love with this Temple, it is a stunning building. We decided to take some pictures of us there for our Spring/Easter pics. We are very grateful to the missionary who took time to show Adrianna pictures of the inside of the temple and who took the picture of us above.
After staying most of our vacation with family we enjoyed some time to ourselves in San Diego. We stayed on Shelter Island on the San Diego Harbor overlooking the bay and the city. We enjoyed a day at Sea World, another at the Zoo, we spent some time at the San Diego temple, and we relaxed near the hotel. It was refreshing to be so close to the ocean again.
While in California we were able to visit with some friends Sarah grew up with. We met up with them at the Fashion Circle mall in Newport Beach. We had a lot of fun visiting at the mall enjoying the different fountains and enjoying each other’s company. The mall even had a store especially for me, unfortunately it was all women's clothing. After we'd had our fun around the fountains, we headed down to the ocean to enjoy the sunset at the beach. The girls loved playing in the sand and enjoying the waves on the beach. We couldn't have picked a nicer place or more beatiful weather to catch up with old friends.
I have been experimenting with some slide show programs. I found that Picasa throws together a pretty descent slide show movie in a couple of clicks that took me an hour to create in Photoshop Elements. That is an hour spent looking at cute pics of my girls while they sleep, so I guess I cannot complain. Anyway, here are some pictures from our first day at Disneyland. We had a great time mostly riding the rides in Fantasy Land like the Tea Cups, Alice in Wonderland, etc. Adrianna especially loved the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, which ended up being her favorite ride. We ended the day visiting with Pooh and his friends Tigger and Eeyore where we got some cute pictures of the girls (primarily Adrianna as Alicia didn't want to have anything to do with any of the characters!)
We recently returned from a 2 week vacation to California. We decided to drive so that we could visit family in Arizona along the way. We had a wonderful time visiting family, going to Disneyland, staying in San Diego, enjoying the coast and the beach and beautiful spring weather. Now I have about 1500 pictures to go through and blog posts to make which is a bit of a daunting task. I hope to get some of our favorite pictures up soon.
