SAN JOSE

This has been a crazy month at work with all sorts of changes and with all of this I've been absolutely exhausted! Lucky for me I got to take a little Vaca with my Spencer!!

Spencer's little bro Chad was graduating from middle school so we went to join the family for the celebrations!! Here's just a few pics to highlight the trip.


On our way to the airport..


Getting ready for our first plane trip together.


We got lucky enough to not have to sit by anyone else.. by avoiding eye contact with everyone!


Waiting for graduation to start and wishing it wasn't so HOT!


Spence got the sheer excitement of the moment!


Spencer's adorable cousins, Kimmie and Meggy

Headed home...


The trip was too short but we had a great time! While I was there I also got the chance to have lunch with my Grandparents! I have a new love for Northern California! We were so sad to leave but grateful for the time we had. Thanks so much to Mom/Connie for taking care of us better than anyone should! Thanks to Dad/Ed for keeping Spencer in line and telling us when to go to bed :). Burdett's you're just great! We love you and miss you!!

Memorial Day

I had an AWESOME memorial day weekend!! One of my best friends, Lisa, came down to visit southern California with her roommates from Idaho and I was graced by her presence for the WHOLE WEEKEND!

We had a so much fun! I set her up on a date with my friend Mikey and Spencer, obviously came along with me! We went down to Mission Beach rode the Giant Dipper roller coaster and walked along the boardwalk for a while.

-- Highlights of the night--
1. When the roller coaster stopped before our ascend to the top.
2. Watching a cop car in pursuit of an idiot driving down the boardwalk.
3. Three girls screaming from their beach house of how wasted they were.
4. Dancing outside of Canes with Spencer like drunken idiots.

The next day we drove up to LA and met up with Lisa's roommates and slept the night before driving up to 6 Flags the next morning. It was Spencer's first trip to 6 flags and I was so excited to share one of my favorite places with him!! My mom got a bunch of cheap tickets from her work but Spencer and I got the best deal of the day!! We got $10 tickets! It was awesome!!! We rode a lot of fun coasters, but the highlight of the day was X2- as usual. I LOVE ROLLER COASTERS!! And X2 is the best. Every time I ride it I get so nervous/ excited like i've never ridden it before! My favorite part of the ride was hearing Spencer scream like a girl the ENTIRE time!








So happy about our cheap tix
