San Jose Vacation

Our big summer trip to San Jose, California was a success! The girls had a lot of fun and it was neat to see a few of the olympic hopeful gymnasts up close and personal. The girls had their 1st plane ride and did great.
Emily thought it was "awesome" and when she finally opened her eyes to look out the window wouldn't stop gabbing about everything she could see.
Grace wasn't as wild about the take off and landing because it hurt her ears a lot. But she was a trooper and chewed thru an entire pack of gum on the way home.
Jillian made friends with the pilot, airline attendant and the man sitting next to us. I don't think she got what the big deal was to fly but really liked the pretzel package and cup of sprite.

We had fun at the gymnastic event and the hotel offered free breakfast and dinner. What more could you ask for? (Dave loved the free food ...) We were lucky enough to bring along two very good friends from our gymnastics gym with us which helped make our big vacation adventure even more fun.
Here are a few pics ...



















(Middle Pic) Can you see Shawn Johnson in the white leo, bottom right?
(Last pic on R) Gracie lost her 1st tooth. Can you see the black space on the bottom?
