California

Last weekend we went to CA. We planned on going for a few weeks and then we found out our dear friend Cory's funeral was that same weekend so we decided not to go. I was really sad because I NEEDED a vacation. Work had been really stressful for a few weeks and I needed a break. But last minute on Friday I desperately sent a text message to my boss, who had the day off, to see if there was any way I could get Tuesday off. She knew I'd been pretty stressed and even though we were going to be short handed she said I could go. We were SO excited. It was seriously the most relaxing, fun trip we've taken since our honeymoon. I was sad when we had to come back. The trip went like this:

Saturday-

• Arrived in CA around 9:00 pm, watched BYU vs. Oklahoma game on Tivo and ate hamburgers with the family.

Sunday-

• Slept in and attended church with Danny, Erin, Benny & Kristalyne at 11:00 am.
  
• Ate lunch
• Took a nap
• Went down to San Diego to have dinner at Grandma & Grandpa Bennett's and played games until we couldn't see straight we were so tired. (By the way I almost reached a 1,000 points while playing dominoes that night. And no that is NOT good.)

Monday-

• Got up before the sun and ran in a 5K with Danny, Erin & Carson. It was a tough course so I didn't run all the way (huge hill!) but it was fun...and for the record Bud ran too. He won't admit that he liked it, he hates getting up early and doesn't exactly love running when there is not a ball involved, but he did say he felt good afterward.
• Took a nap
• Spent the rest of the day at the beach with family (didn't get sunburned)
  
• Had dinner at Norte's Mexican restaurant in Carlsbad
  
• Played dominoes at Danny & Erin's with Mom, Dad & Jamie (didn't win but my score was WAY better).

Tuesday-

• Slept in until 10:00 am
• Had lunch at "Wings -n-Things" with Danny & Mom
• Checked out the progress on the house
• Long drive home

As you can see from this post we had so much fun and were so relaxed we didn't take any pictures. Oh well...maybe next time.
