This year I decided to have fun. Every month I will have an adventure of some kind, whether it's a road trip, or a vacation, or a day somewhere new.

January's adventure was a trip to see the commissioning of the USS Greenbay. It was interesting!

Road trip to UT

Orem, United States


Some family things took me up to UT, and though I had to say good bye to my sister and BFF for a while, I had a great trip

Home Sweet Home

I didn't want to come home from this trip--sure, I was tired and a little sick while up there, but I was on vacation with people I love--many of whom I haven't seen in a long time...but life goes on, and I gotta work to pay the bills, right? Start saving for the next big adventure.

Road trip to April's

San Marcos, United States


I wanted to visit my friend's family, and Chris wanted to go to church at boot camp, so we made a trip down to the San Diego area to do both. I had to work/volunteer on Saturday afternoon, so as soon as I got off we headed down and spent the weekend there. On Sunday we went to church at the MCRD in San Diego--It was weird being pretty much the only girl there. I mean, The Branch presidency's wives were there, but that's it. Let me tell you: singing was weird! Haha. But it was interesting to see everyone and it really was a very spiritual meeting. I got a personal tour of the facility, and I saw the McCain Family seats at the "taco hut" (I don't really know why, but that's what the building is called) where they watch the graduations. Some day we'll go back on a Friday so I can see a graduation.
I also went to the gun show...not really exciting because it's less a show and more a swap-meet. So unless you are buying parts for your gun (I don't have a gun) you're really just wondering around and looking at shirts and bumper stickers that insult Obama, or warn that there is a gun on the premises, or in support of the troupes. Some were really funny and others were kinda deep. Don't get me wrong--It's always fun watching people at these things!
On Camp Pendelton there is a beautiful beach! It's really clean because you have to get on base to get there. I was really looking forward to getting some time in a swimsuit and the sun, but it was pretty windy and cold, so maybe next time. Instead we went to the shops and I bought myself some tax-free perfume! :-) Then on our way home we stopped in Vegas. Ok, so Vegas isn't on our way home...and we didn't really go there, but I felt like I was in a Vegas casino when I entered the South Coast Plaza--very fancy. We ate burgers at the Rainforest Cafe...As classy as we get. Hahaha.
