Ahhh Vacation is over!

Well, nine days is a long time for a vacation but it is always sad to go home.  We are missing the children and our family&friends terribly!  On Saturday, we left our beautiful Pebble creek room and, after a nice lunch at a Greek place in Carmel, we made the long drive down route 1 winding around mountains until we were sick.  The scenery was indescribable!  I made Brad stop at this one place called Jade Cove. It is one of the only places in the U.S. you can actually fine Jade.  So... I spent like an hour collecting rocks that look like Jade.  I think I actually got a few good ones.  We will see.  We will be happy to get home tonight!

Beautiful California

Brad and I enjoyed a week in Sunny San Francisco and the Monterey Penninsula.  Brad really enjoyed the golf and I really enjoyed the views and the relaxing time off! We are lucky and thankful to have a family who can take the children for a while.  Thanks everyone!

We saw a fortune cookie factory, visited Alcatraz and enjoyed delicious seafood in fisherman's wharf.
