Ah, the happiest place on earth

So, Joe and I got back from our vacation last week and I guess it took me a little long to make the report. We spent our first night at Joe's aunt's house in St. George and the next morning went and picked up the Hafen's. We drove to L.A. that day. That night we went to dinner with Joe's cousin Matthew who works and lives in Santa Monica. He works for a video game company (electronic arts) designing the game "Medal of Honor". He's really fun and nice but we don't get to see him very often. We went to Beverly Hills and looked at the ritzy houses and Rodeo Drive and the temple after that. The next day we went to Disneyland. We got there at 7:45 and stayed until 11:15 it was a fun day, but it sure was a long one. Brandaige and I didn't go on as many rides as Ryan and Joe did because she is pregnant and I gave my stomach a rest some times, but I went on some fun ones (including "Its a Small world") The next day was Sea World, but it isn't as big so we only stayed until 4:00 and then we went to the beach and the San Diego temple. The next day we slept in (ahhhhh) and started home. Apparently L.A. residents like to go to Vegas on the weekends and we hit the traffic just right because it took us 5 hours to get out of L.A. Fun. It was definitely a fun trip and the Hafen's were a blast, but I made the definite decision that if it were my choice I wouldn't want to live in L.A. And don't worry siblings...I bought you some cheesy souveniers from the happiest place on earth!!!
