Spring Break Vacation!!!

We took our family vacation a little early this year. Matt was blessed to find a job REAL quickly, but won't start work until the 22nd. It was a perfect time to "play" on Hannah's spring break. We loaded up the car... and headed west to San Diego to go and visit Joanne and Lauren. We drove all night and all day the next day - 25 HOURS! Whew - it was a WHIPPIN'! I don't think that I will ever do that again! We got to spend 5 wonderful days there. Joanne was the best tour guide! We did so much! On the way back home - we decided to take another route and go north to the Grand Canyon. It added 2 hours to the trip, but WAY worth it. I took about 700 pictures total, and it was REALLY hard deciding which ones to put on here... enjoy!


A few misc pictures:
