Vacation Time!

Jar and I just returned from a great summer vacation. We went to Bakersfield, California (about two hours outside LA) to visit my older bro David, his wife Melanie and their two kids, Audrey (2yrs) and Jordan (6 weeks old). They blessed Jordan while we were there, which was the original reason for our trip, but we turned it into a vacation, since it will probably be the only one of the summer.


Chillin' at the SLC Airport- we are so ready for our vacay!


Extremely small plane we flew on...we had to walk outside at both airports! We also had to sit in the very back of the plane...lets just say I wasn't thrilled about this.


We're in Long Beach, CA!!! Yes, see the palm trees behind us!


Time to go to LAX to pick up my parentals! We coordinated flight times with them so we could share a rental car.


This is our sweet rental car for the trip...vrooom!


And there they are! Mom & Dad Wilson! LOVE THEM!


After LAX, came the long trip to Bakersfield. We cruised past Santa Monica Blvd...well, I wouldn't say cruised...more like putted...LA traffic was horrible! We kept at it for a while but then we stopped for dinner at Red Lobster along the way to break up the drive. Then we finally arrived in Bakersfield!!
