California August 2007

We took a very long vacation in California. To save some time and brain cells I am going to give the quick and easy run down of events.

Drove to Vegas, Jaynann went to the Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Concert. Drove to Merced, hung out with friends and family, went swimming, went to Great America, went to Snelling to help build a deck, golfed with Ganon and Dave, hung out with friends and family again. Jaynann went to Texas to see Christian, Jaynann came back to Merced, hung out with Daniel and Rachel in Roseville. We went back to Merced and became very lazy and did the same stuff I mentioned before. Great trip, kids were great in the car, and we finally have some responsibility at home since Dave and Mom took care of us so well.

Check the pics...

Christian's graduation from the Air Force was so
great! All of us were there to support him. I am
so proud to have a brother serving our country!




My mom and three brothers! We went to
Six Flags and they won those basketballs.



My sister Kim and I outside of one of the rides.
We all had a blast going on all the rides together.
I felt like a little kid running around and hurrying
to the front of the line.



Talon munching on raw almonds at Uncle Jim
and Aunt Susie's Almond Orchard in Snelling, CA

Grandpa and Talon riding the tractor through
the orchard. Eric's dad used to drive this exact
same tractor when he was young on Eric's
grandpa's almond orchard. Eric's aunt and uncle
tracked down this same tractor and fixed it up.
It had been about40 years since he had driven it.

Eric and the boys hopped on with grandpa
and it was pretty cool to see 3 generations on it.



Did I mention that we drove? Thank goodness for
a DVD player in the car!
