San Diego trip April 2009

Finally getting to posting about our San Diego trip. We went April 24th-29th. We had a great time. Missed the kids like crazy but they were home safe with grandma. They all did wonderful. Got a little tired out on our trip, having to walk or ride public transport everywhere. Good exercise this vacation. James had to combine the vacation with business, as we were actually there for a nurses conference. We had about two full days together and some time in between. It was a great trip.

The kiddos the night before we left.

(I wanted a pic on the camera to look @ while we were gone.)
