Six Flags

I feel like I haven't blogged in forever with school starting again and being gone every weekend. Anyway, I started school last Monday and ever since then I feel like I don't have the chance to even get on the computer for anything other than school or work, it's actually quite annoying. My mom has been wanting to take the kids down to the zoo in San francisco or somewhere that has animals. So Last weekend my Mom, Danielle, Vickie, and I took the kids down to Six Flags in Vallejo. It was actually a grandma's trip but I think that they felt bad leaving us at home:)) We flew out of Mckinleyville on Friday night and got rental a car. We stayed at a hotel that was right across the street from the park (which was really nice and convienient). On Saturday we were there the whole day. I think it was the longest that Connor has ever gone without a nap. The kids enjoyed it so much that we went back the next day. I turned out to be Hispanic day and the park was pretty crowded so we didn't stay long. We went back to the hotel and took the kids to the pool ordered dinner in and watched a movie, it was a perfect couple of days. On Monday we drove back to San Francisco and attemped to go shopping at Union Square, it didn't work out so well, too many people and every store we went into had so many stairs. After a few stores Danielle and I looked at each other and both said "are you ready to go?" Needless to say we went to pier 39 and had lunch at an excellent seafood/pasta resturant Scomas. We flew back home that evening. It was so nice to not have to be in the car for 6 hours each way. Here are some pictures from the trip, my camera was dead most of the time so I have to get more pictures from my sister, I'll upload them later.
