Spring Break- finally!

I hope that you are as excited as I am that this/these posts are finally finished! We had a wonderful Spring Break and are excited to share our pictures. Before I do, let me give a little background on our trip.

This is how our first conversation went:

Carynn- "I can not wait for Spring Break! We will finally get two weeks off that we do not have to share with a major holiday like Thanksgiving or Christmas. I want to go somewhere where I can relax, read books, eat and get a tan. Somewhere where the kids will have a blast but do not have to be with us every second of the day. I want a VACATION!!!"

Steve- "I have been thinking about this vacation and know exactly what we will do. I will plan everything. Don't worry about a thing!"

Carynn- "That would be awesome! Not only will I get a great vacation- but I don't even have to think about it. What could be better??"

Okay- in case you are wondering- I was thinking along the lines of a cruise. Great food, fun, relaxation. This was not what Steve was thinking, however.

I have to admit that I was slightly disappointed when I saw his blow by blow itenerary of the trip, but I would NOT change it for the world! The vacation was AWESOME!! By the way- I did get great food and I did read 3 books!! The tan is another story.

So... here are pictures of the vacation with brief notes. For some reason, I can only post 5 pictures at a time- so I had to break this up into many posts. Take a journey with our family up the California Coast!!! (it is 13 posts long- so you will have to go into older posts to see the entire trip).

Enjoy!!!

WOW What a post! My goodness. I love the play by play with you and Steve too, that's so funny! I have to say though that it looks like he did a pretty amazing job planning the trip, way to go! I seriously can't believe all that you did in that week. I love all of the pictures too! Thanks for posting :)

Holy cow you guys saw alot of the state, I am so impressed. It all looks so beautiful, we have done a separate vacation to most of those places and love them all, I cant believe you were able to fit them all into one trip! Great pictures, glad you enjoyed, now you just need to hit the pool on Saturdays and you will have yourself a tan
