CA here we come!

I just wanted to say how excited we are about our trip down to my hometown, Fresno, CA and then onto Disneyland! The way Jonathon says Disneyland is so darling, I showed him pictures of the last time he went as a baby and the recent ones my brother and his wife sent us in front of the "Cars" and so to say the least he is very excited. I'm excited to be in my old house too, swimming in my pool, relaxing at home, relaxing watching t.v. (we don't have cable so this will be nice), and spending time with my mom and the rest of my family and old friends. I'm excited to go to the beach too! I haven't been to a CA beach since last summer, Southern Cali beaches are so peaceful and beautiful! We are driving down, today I got all the snacks and drinks we need for the big drive. During Christmas we drove and it actually worked out great, Jonathon did very well, so we are hoping we have the same luck this time around :) We leave Friday morning after Jake's last day of teaching Seminary. By the way, I am so proud of him for teaching seminary again, he is the best teacher, and the time and effort I see him put into each single lesson makes me realize how much he loves the scriptures, how much he loves teaching, and how much he loves his Junior class. He will miss them but is excited to start back up again this fall.
Well, until next time, I will post some pictures of our fun trip later on! Happy Summer!
By the way did I say how much I NEED this vacation!!? Very much so, finally, to get away for a while!
