California Trip

I know that this is not super recent, but I wanted to post these fun pictures. After Clint graduated, we went to California to hang out with his sister Amelia and her family. We had a blast! Here are some pics from the trip.

Airport Highlights...We have some good times at the airport

So, we found out that United has a "red carpet" for their first class passengers. Imagine this...you are waiting with a crowd of people to board a plane, and the United employee starts calling groups to go through the ticket area. "Gold Group, now boarding in our red carpet line... Silver Group, now boarding in our red line...Group A, now boarding...don't you dare try to walk in the red carpet line..." I know it's an exaggeration, but not much of one. Clint and I could not stop laughing as we watched the first class passengers walk on the two-foot-square red carpet before boarding the plane. If I were a first class passenger, I would be ticked that the extra money I paid for a plane ticket was going towards red carpets! I wish Brian Reagan was on our flight - this would definitely have given him some fuel for his next comedy act. Oh, and we tried some great sourdough bread in the San Francisco airport. Here is the baguette we got "to go" before our flight.

Amelia, Dennis, Austin, and Darby "hanging loose"

Dennis and his "baby" Mojo

These pics show a few highlights from our trip. Austin and Darby are both on swim team this year, and so we were able to watch them practice. Also, Clint had his first cavity filled by Dennis while we were there, and I got to watch the procedure. It was so cool seeing Clint's cavity up close...it was huge!

Amelia is a Young Women's leader right now, and she thought of a cool idea for a church service project - "Extreme Church Makeover", with team shirts and everything. I went to the activity, and it was alot of fun. Honestly, if you just saw these big smiles you never would guess that these kids were at a service project.

Some of the amazing food we had on this trip. Fish with shallots, beef brisket with salt lick barbeque sauce, pistachio pudding, and the best turkey, bacon, guacamole sandwich I have ever had.

Clint liked the food so much at one restaurant that he licked his plate clean, and was very disappointed when there wasn't anything left to lick.

That was our trip! Okay, and by the way, can someone tell me how to get rid of all the blank space in my posts. Sorry...I'm a little technologically challenged.
