California 2009

Well, we just got back from our trip to California. The Nixon's were planning a trip to Disneyland and invited us to tag along... so we did. Marley even got to come along. We stayed at the Knotts Berry Farm Hotel. It was nice and the people were nice, but the beds were not the most comfortable.... but we survived the beds and had a great time. We spent 2 days at Disneyland and California Adventures and went to Huntington Beach one day (got burned) and then we drove to Long Beach and found the Queen Mary. Friday we went to the Soak City Water park across from Knotts. It was fun but chilly. Tim and I didn't stay the whole day because I was having a bad day (just not feeling well). Marley had to leave on Thursday to get back to work. It was hard to see her go. We loved having her there and the kids just plain loved her. It was fun having a vacation where there were small kids. We went with just Melanie and Tracy a few years back and Tim and I went to Cali about a month earlier and it was quite a different vacation. So this was nice. We did all the big rides in Disneyland and California Adventures. The kids were very brave. Bekah even went on the Matterhorn and soring over california. Everyone went on Tower of Terror (except Melanie, she'd been before and didn't like it so she sat this one out). I am thankful for the years we lived in California and were able to take the kids to Disneyland. We went about twice a year around the kids birthdays. It was great then and this trip brought back many fun memories.
