It comes to an end

Just like all good things, our vacation has finally come to an end, but not without lots of pictures taken and memories made. On our last day I got to go to lunch with all my girlfriends and their adorable little ones. It was so different from 6 years ago when we were in High School, but its so fun that we are all in such different places in our lives and still get together at rare opportunities like this one.All the ladies together againMe & Joseph and Michelle & DanielLittle Joseph-I couldn't get enough of those cheeks!!Me, Jack and Melissa-The 2 Jacks together again. Last I saw him he was a baby-not anymore!

Then for dinner Mark and I met up with his favorite mission companion and wife, Steve and Brittany and their adorable daughter Mackenna. The last time we saw Mackenna was when she was 3 days old. She is now a bright, bubbly, beautiful 1 year old. We had so much fun at Downtown Disney with them.Me, Mark, Mackenna and Brittany (Thanks for snappin the pic Steve)Mackenna and me (or as Mark likes to call her "Mark"kenna!! So cute :)

On our long drive Mark loved the accidental stop at General Patton's Museum. (The pregnant lady needed a stop). It was so random, in the middle of nowhere, but whenever there is a tank nearby, Mark insists on getting his picture taken. Just about the only time Mark is a willing participant in photos is when there are Army related items or babies involved :)
We had such a wonderful trip: Disneyland, surfing, wakeboarding, baseball game, kayaking, pool party, baby shower, BBQ's and more!!! We made sure to thoroughly enjoy our "last vacation" and we had a blast!

You look great. Your friends little Baby Joseph cought my eye. He looks like my baby Owen in his brown and blue striped shirt. Owen has the same shirt and I put him in it all the time. We are so excited for you and Mark. Baby boys are so much fun.
