The cruise

So me & 3 friends from work, decided we all needed a vacation. So we went on one! Last week we set sail for a quick 4 day Mexican cruise. We flew into SanDiego, took off that night and were off for some fun!
Our first stop was Catalina Island, CA. Here we started the day off with some parasailing! Kate had never been, so it was fun to watch her squirm! After that we spent time on the Island driving around in a Golf cart. We also went and saw some botanical gardens with this cool building built to honor someone.
After catalina, we headed for Ensenada. And they had golf carts too! Amazing- but what a different situation. Here we were driving in the middle of regular streets and cars all around us. Jessie took control & owned the road. We also went to the beach and spent some time looking for sea shells. I found tons of sand-dollars!
While we were there, there was a parade as part of some sort of carnival. It was fun to be a part of and quite different than any parade i have been to. We also wondered around and bought some cool stuff.
After that we had a 'fun-day-at-see' day. We spent most of the day relaxing & trying to catch some sun... not a lot of luck though.
All in all we had a blast! Look forward to next time!

Snow fun


Rex came home for some R&R (2week vacation) from Iraq.
We had a blast spending time together!
Our first adventure was snowmobiling at Daniels Summit up near Heber.
It was so much fun.
The weather was beautiful and the snow was everywhere.
It was the first time for me and it had been a while for Rex. Rex fell off the back once and bruised his ego a little bit.
As for me, once a got more adventurous I decided to go off the path... and went for a bit of a bumpy road. It was fun until I hit a creek... and snow flew ontop of me... I jolted me around a bit.
We had tons of fun !
