2009 Summer Vacation/Anniversary Trip - Part 1

In July we took a trip to NorCal for vacation and for Amy and I to celebrate our 10th anniversary. We drove up to Pittsburg, CA (where my parents live) on the day of our anniversary, July 17th. It was great to great to visit with them for a few days!

My parents surprised us that evening by sending Amy and I out to dinner while they hung out with the kids. Thanks Mom and Dad! Here we are at dinner that night:

Then, on the 19th, Amy and I got to head up to the mountains for an anniversary getaway! Kaylin and TJ got to have more special time with Grams and Papa. Amy and I really enjoyed a chance to be alone together to celebrate our 10 years of marriage! HUGE THANKS and LOTS of LOVE to Mom and Dad for making that possible!

Grams is a photographer... so she always gets great shots to document our visits and special occasions. The next three pics are just some of the ones she took while they watched the kids for a couple days:

Cute shot of the kids down at the dock on the Delta


Kaylin showing off moves she learned in her dance class


TJ as "The Hulk" - He loves that gift from Grams and Papa!

The kids also got their chance at being photographers. Here's one that TJ took:

And here are three photos that Kaylin took:

We all enjoyed our visit with Grams and Papa... we love you both very much!
