California Trip!!!

Last weekend, Mom, Betsy and I headed to California for a quick trip to see the Grandmother. Seeing Uncle Dave and Aunt Kay was a great bonus too!!! :D We all got in Friday (well, after Betsys plane was delayed, she showed up EARLY Saturday!). The next morning, we got up and headed out to Modesto, to the Cook house. What a great house!!! :D It was so fun to see Grandmother, and she was excited to see us and have "company". We sat and chatted for awhile, and then decided to go on a trip to Yosemite National Park. It was about a 2 hour drive away, around steep and curvy roads! About 1/2 way there, we popped a tire! What an adventure that was. It took a little while to get fixed, but back on the road we went!! Betsy and I entertained everyone with a few AMAZING renditions of "Great Adventure" by Steven Curtis Chapman. Can you believe Grandmother said she couldnt understand us???? :D We stopped at several vistas to check out the view. At one place, we were able to see Yosemite Falls! It was so cool....beautiful. We also saw El Capitain...which I've heard about for years! It was a long trip, but amazing. And the best part, Grandmother said as we were driving home, she'd had a wonderful day. It was a Great Adventure!!!!! :D
