Christmas morning we had a fairly lazy morning with opening presents, having a super soaker war, and eating a delicious linner. We headed out into the desert in the evening for some shooting. Ben had brought a stuffed duck that said Aflac that he wanted to shoot, but the little animal had a life of its own! It stayed on the tree no matter how many times we shot him!
The next day we went hiking with parents and then did our annual Christmas lights tour. I can now show people in WA what they are missing out on!
Sunday we went to church, freestone park for James to ride the train, Inn and Out and some bocce ball.
Monday Ben and I met up with my good friend Keri to catch up..there is truly nothing like an old friend!
Tuesday my mom drove us out to CA and stayed the night at Ben's parents house. On Wednesday we all drove down to San Diego for brunch at Jessie's inlaws. Austin & Kelsey even made a surprise visit!
Wednesday afternoon we went sailing and met up with Ben's great aunt and uncle.
Thursday we drove into LA and saw some of the floats for the rose parade, ate lunch to Phillipe's, and went to the very interesting Venice Beach. There were some interesting characters out, but completely worth the incredible sunset we saw! We rang in 2010 by watching a movie and struggling to stay awake!
Friday we spent the day with Ben's grandparents playing 7 hours worth of cards!
Saturday we went back to San Diego to get Ben some suits and get a burrito from a shop near Ben's 1st college, SDSU. We also saw Avatar in 3D which was incredible.
Sunday we flew home! Wow, it's exhausting even writing everything :) Happy New Year! We hope that this year is a year full of blessings for you!
