Baseballs, Dirt & Worms..The Glamorous Life of a Mom with Boys: Great West Coast and AZ Vacas

The Great travels of the west coast...ahh. We had so many great trips while living in Vegas. Only being about 3 hours aways from the great L.A., we indulged in our inner childhood and hit Disneyland and hit up the famous Newport Beach too. We had a great friend who lived in L.A. the fabulous Becca Wagoner we visited a few times. One summer, we crammed ourselves and our wiggly 1 year old Parker into the car and ventured the California coastline! We hit L.A. first, then up to San Francisco for some fine chocolates and seafood dining..such a great city! We are fortunate to know good friends (sort of relatives:) Erik & Rachelle and stayed with them in their hometown, Sacramento! From there we picked up our vacationing Aunt Linda who resides in the lovely Lake Tahoe area, and headed up to the Lake.

The following summer we took our first family with friends and their families vacation! Us and the other football coaching families packed it up and headed to the great Flagstaff, AZ. The house was wonderful, the kids ran all over the place while us adults kicked back, ate lots of cheese, wine, and talked and laughed.

We also hit Phoenix a few times, visiting our long lost Stone Ridge neighbors and great friends, Lizzy & Rodney who had relocated there. Lucky for Tim, the Cardinals always seemed to be in town playing ball, so we hit them up along with some great restaurants and an overall fantastic getaway with our friends.

Such great memories, so many wonderful friends plunked down all over the continent it seems. Memories I will always treasure.
