Jon and now Joseph love to take photos. Here are some they recently have taken from our Southern California trip.

Disney and AMA

With some Christmas money we received this year, we decided last minute to take the kids on a Southern California adventure to visit Jon's sister and family. The kids has a blast playing with cousins and we took them to Disneyland for one day and then Jon found out that the first AMA Supercross race of the season was the very weekend we were there in Anaheim, so Joseph, Dan and Jon went. I have to say what a wonderful invention DVD players in cars have been as we cruised down I-5 with no arguments or "when we we get there?" questions. We feel like we celebrated the end of 2008 with a great memory our kids will cherish. We haven't been to Disneyland since Ben was a baby and the other kids were 3 and 5. It was a perfect time to take them as the crowds were low and it was still decorated for the Holidays. Ben truly believed that the stars in Space Mountain were real and Emma got to meet Jasmine and Alladin. I loved staying up late and visiting with my precious sister in law Christa whom I have known longer than my husband. It was a wonderful trip.
