I guess that's what we must seem like to you, anyway. We are back at Cheryl's today and I thought I should take this final opportunity to write while we're on vacation.
To bring you up to date - We had a great visit with Gary and Karen on Saturday. Leigh and Theresa were there and Gary barbecued steak for us again. Eric and Laurel came over and we had a ping-pong tournament, sort of. We enjoyed the house where Eric and Laurel are house sitting. They have a beautiful pool and we had another barbecue there on Sunday evening. Gary and Karen came over and Laurel's sister and family were there also.
On the 4th we went to Disneyland as planned with Eric and Laurel, Cheryl and Tiffany joined us later in the day and we had a great time. I even went on California Screamin' a very fast smooth roller-coaster that goes upside-down. I might go on it again with Cheryl, tomorrow but I don't like it as much as Space Mountain. I was very glad that Space Mountain is opened again, I thought we would miss it. We stayed at Disneyland until just after the fireworks, which were spectacular.
Tuesday was a day to hang around Eric's and swim and go shopping. I made lasagna for everyone.
On Wednesday we spent our entire day in Disneyland rather than California Adventure. We'll probably do both again tomorrow. It was just us and the girls at Disneyland and we stayed until almost closing. We had fast passes for Splash Mountain at 10:45 p.m. It was still fun, even that late.
On Thursday we helped Laurel clean the house and then came over to Cheryl's for another laundry day.
Friday was spent at Sea World. We all enjoyed the shows and they had three rides that we went on. I'd highly recommend all three, but be prepared to get soaked on two of them, especially if you're in the front of the Atlantis ride, like Dad and I were, and if you have people shooting at you on the rapids ride. (Thanks Cheryl and Clarissa) We spent the night at Speedy's and some of the kids came over Saturday morning to visit for a while.
Saturday we went to the Wild Animal Park and enjoyed the animals there. They also had a few shows with African singers and Acrobats it was a little slower pace than our running at amusement parks and was a nice change.
Now we're up to today. We got in late last night and went to church this morning, so most of us took naps. Tonight we're going to Eric's apartment because we're going to Disneyland for an early entry at 7:00. Cheryl and Tiffany will be with us again tomorrow and after our fun day there, we'll come back here for our final night. On Tuesday we'll head out for Yosemite and spend two nights camping there and two nights in the Redwoods before we go home on Saturday. It should be a wonderful time.
Now I need to go finish getting everything ready to go, and eat the delicious pot roast that Cheryl made for us.
I hope you are all having wonderful summers, too.
Love ya,
MOM
