Three Days of Bliss 



Chuck and I have never been big Disneyland fans, but when you are invited to spend time with your daughter and granddaughter at the happiest place on earth you say, yesssss!!!! Karen made all of the decisions, drove every day, and allowed us to sit back and
enjoy our time together.  We loved every minute of every day.  Each evening, we returned to Margie and Chris' condo on Redondo Beach, where we awoke each morning to the sound of the surf and a view of Palos Verde Penninsula. We ate out every meal which was a treat in itself....El Coyote in Hollywood, Mama Ds on Manhatten Beach with Summer and two of her children, The Crab Cooker in Newport with Jennah and Kendall and baby Bryce (who is adorable) and lunches at Disneyland.  We highly recommend these 1 on 1 vacations.  We are back in Heber and preparing for the Christmas Festivities with the rest of our Family over the next two weeks.  We wish you and your families a Very....

MERRY CHRISTMAS
