Trip to Cali

Ok, last post for tonight. We just got back last night from a relaxing trip to Fresno to visit with Nathan's family. A big congratulations goes out to my sister-in-law, Brenna Stokes, who graduated from CSU- Fresno after 10 years and three kids. I am amazed at her determination and perserverence (I don't know if I could do what she did). It was great to see the niece and nephews, they have all gotten so big! It also happened to be Prom weekend for my sister-in-law Heather so we spent many hours making corsages and curling hair. She looked beautiful, as always! Nate and I had fun doing all the cool California stuff that he misses so much. We went to In and Out Burger and Nate took me to the ghetto to see his former junior college, Fresno City- it was a very interesting experience. Since we flew into LAX and drove up to Fresno (that's my husband- the penny pincher) we got to stop in Valencia on our last day and see my old childhood neighborhood. We saw the old house, the community pool where we all learned to swim, and our elementary school. It was weird to be back but also kind of cool to see our old stomping grounds. We got in last night around 1am and I had work this morning at 7am so I am exhausted but it was well worth the loss of sleep. I only get two days at home before Mom and I leave for Outdoor Ed so I may not post for a few more days but I promise to take incriminating pictures of mom camping and post them as soon as we get home! Much love to all... see you soon!
