California Love

In October Dustin and I were able to go to California twice. The first time was a family trip with my side.  It was the first time we've been on a family trip in years. Everyone was able to go except Bryce who couldn't get away from BYU-I. We spent two days at Disneyland, including a very fun night at Mickey's Halloween Party, we got to go trick-or-treating! Then we spent a day at Knott's Berry Farm.

Someone looks excited!
It's a Small World


Loved all the decorations!





Our second trip was to San Francisco two weeks later.  It was an early birthday surprise for Dustin.  He has always been a huge 49ers fan but had never been to a game.  We had such a fun time at the game and exploring San Fran.  We did one of the bus tours so we were able to see most of the city.  We highly recommend going to San Francisco if you haven't before.

New York, New York!

Over Easter we were able to visit our friends, the Garretts. They were kind enough to let us stay at their place and show us around the city. I honestly have to say that it was one of my favorite trips!

We saw a few shows, went on a night cruise, went to Easter Mass, and had the most incredible food! We found one restaurant that was completely gluten free! First time I could eat everything on the menu and it felt amazing! We also found a mac n' cheese restaurant and a few gluten free bakeries. New York is definitely one of my favorite places to visit.
 

For some odd reason this reminds me of Newsies.

Honeymoon

We went on a cruise to the Bahamas and then Disneyworld.  We had such a fun time and I promised Dustin that I wouldn't make him go back to Disney for a few years, seeing how he took me to Disneyland for my birthday. That promise only lasted a year :).

I want to live here forever!
