Vacation... Days 1 - 2

This year my Mom really wanted to go to Disneyland to see it all decked out in the Holiday decor, so what better way to spend Thanksgiving than with my family! (minus Kim's family, wish you could have been there)!


Day one:
We drove to Primm, NV and stayed at Whiskey Pete's.  We left after Austin got home from school (about 2:30) so we didn't arrive until around 9:00 PM.  The kids were AMAZING during the drive!

Day two:
We drove into California, the Suburban died on the freeway... Luckily Tim was driving and somehow managed to get us to the side of the road without being hit by any of the crazy drivers out here!  Also, we were very lucky she restarted and got us to the Hotel, now I am just praying we make it home okay... but I am on vacation and am trying not to worry about such things :).  We are staying at the Hampton Inn, in a one bedroom suite, something we have never done before and I must admit I am loving it!  We have a kitchen, front room and a bedroom so the kids have all the space they need!

Once we got settled in it was too late to go to the beach like we had planned; so instead Tim and I took the kids swimming at the Hotel, then left the kids behind and went to an all adult dinner!  Tammi suggested we go to the Pike, which of course we were all for.  However when we got there, my Mom's face was absolutely priceless!  She looked completely terrified... The area surrounding the restaurant was what my Mom would call "a bad neighborhood" and it didn't help that all of the servers were covered in tattoos and piercings... Priceless!!  It all turned out wonderful, the best fish and chips I've ever had!
