MAY 2011

California Closets had their yearly "Conference" in Orlando this year. It was the first week of May, which is a pretty big week in my life.... My birthday is the 2nd and I married the man of my dreams on the 4th.... (It was our 12th anniversary). So, Rob decided it would be a great idea for me to join him in Orlando for the week. I have to say, I'm sooo glad I went! I got to sleep in everyday, work out as long as I wanted, and sit by the pool in 85 degree weather... while hearing kids yelling out "MOMMY!" and knowing that they weren't talking to me! That said, I seriously missed the kids soooo much!!! After the 2nd day, I couldn't wait to come home to see them! It was such an awesome trip. I enjoyed it a ton more than I thought I would and it was nice to get a break. It was also really cool to meet the corporate employees and other franchisees that Rob has talked about for the last few years. They all LOVE Rob! He got a few rewards too, which he was totally psyched about!
Sadly, I didn't take many pictures, but it was definitely the highlight of MY May, so it's goin on the blog! :) Thought I'd share some pictures of where we stayed...













On our anniversary, we came up to our room and found this:

Masquerade!


The BIG GALA night was a "MASQUERADE" theme, and me, being the huge FANTOM that I am, couldn't resist taking the opportunity to dress up and pretend the masked man would show up. Sadly, he didn't. And Rob didn't dress up either, oh well. :)

APRIL 2011

We went to Sacramento for SPRING BREAK to visit Nana and Papa, Uncle Mark & Aunt Shannon & cousins, and our awesome friends from when we lived there. Even though Rob and I started to cry the minute we pulled into our driveway from the 17 hour long drive, we had sooo much fun! !! Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be making that drive again ANYTIME soon! UGH!

First, we drove to Walla Walla to visit Grandma Jan and Grandpa Ken. It was so fun to see them! Then off we went on our 17 hour voyage...










Hailey's book that she started to write on our way down there:












I drove all the way to Redding. We got there at like 3:00 am... it was pretty CRAZAY! I could NOT drive any farther! So we stayed at a scary hotel there and the kids were up bright and early for us.... (they're so fun to travel with!) We were so happy to finally make it to Sac! While there we:
Went to the Jelly Belly Factory













Drove by our old house :(


Spring Break cont.


Went to the Sacramento Temple

























We did tons of fun stuff! It was a great trip. I only lost a few more brain cells...









(Don't let the smiles fool you... this may have been the only "happy" moment of the whole drive.... both ways!) LOL It sure makes for fun family memories, don't it?
