Rachel's Spring Break Getaway

I was able to take another trip back to California earlier this month. My boss took some time off to go to Paris to visit his in-laws and I decided to browse the web for plane tickets back to California. To make a long story short, I ended up finding a REALLY cheap flight home to California from Iowa (which is very rare...it costs a fortune to get out of here). After Nathan and I talked about it, I booked the flight and told him Goodbye.

I ended up staying 10 days back at home. I don't think my Dad knew what to do with all the extra estrogen that was back in the house. The first few days weren't so hot. I had bronchitis. Yes...what a way to start off a vacation. I just laid low for a couple of days, but then was able to visit with family and friends once I got better.

One of the highlights of my trip was going to Disneyland with all my sisters, my mom, my niece, and my nephew. I have attached some pictures below for all of you to see.

To much fun for Elizabeth...

Wow that looks so fun! I wish I could have joined you. I am glad you got to go visit with all the girls.

I'm so jealous, it looks like you had a lot of fun! Sorry about the whole bronchitis thing. I hope you enjoyed it, because now that you are back in Iowa it is SNOWING! Blah!

Oh it is so good to see a picture of you and your mom and sisters- holy smokes!! It's been a long time since I've seen them! Looks like you guys had a fun time, but who wouldn't in California, right??

What a tall family! Bet it wasn't as fun as boards for my spring break, though!
