**PHOTO OVERLOAD**
The highs of this trip were:
| Kayaking with my 69 year old Grandma (she rocks!) | 
| Getting PBR's (piggy back rides) | 
| A million jumping photos | 
| Shopping at SLO Swap Meet with Auntie V and finding lots of Shabby Chic treasures | 
| Winning at Bunco | 
| Lunching with my Point Loma roomies and their hubbs plus a couple new baby additions to the group :) | 
| Happy Hour at Embassy Suites | 
| Endless hours of entertainment from MaMa and those kahluas and cream. | 
| Jumping on the bed, of course | 
 
|  | 
| Shopping with the girls and getting a new coach purse | 
| Oh yeah, Andrew got a tattoo. | 
| Dinner with my bestie and friends | 
| Farmer's Market | 
| Meeting up with Texas friends at Pismo Beach. Small world! | 
| Making sandcastles for Ethan to destroy :-) | 
| Seeing my sister's play in Camria | 
| This picture made us laugh hysterically. What do you think of my man legs? | 
| Hitting 150,000 miles on the Camry. That was the only high for this sad car. | 
| Seeing all of my dad's family and taking silly pictures at the beach. Nice nip-slip, uncle Sieb! | 
| swimming (near the shark tank - don't look nessie!) in las vegas | 
| shopping | 
| shopping | 
| shopping | 
| Anniversary dinner at Mario Batalli's restaurant in the Venetian. Thank you mom and dad hoag! | 
| Mid State Fair with family | 
|  | 
| Skipper's Beautiful Wedding! | 
| San Diego with my furry little princess. And Maddie Bear too :) | 
And now for the LOWS which coincidentally all took place on the 
1300 mile drive back from Vegas to San Antonio:
| check engine light comes on. Andrew replaces coolant. | 
| Monsoon hits in Arizone causing zero visibility. Eeek. | 
| 3 hours from home the grill fell off the front of the car. Here's Andrew recovering it off I-10. | 
I am currently undecided if we will ever make this treacherous drive across country again.
Maybe if there were more shopping stops along the way!!!
What a wonderful recap of your Calif time. Loved looking at your photos...Vegas looked like fun! Happy Anniversary to you two!! Thanks for warning me about the shark!
