We were so grateful and were counting down the days until our first weekend get-a-way over Memorial Day weekend. Here are some pictures and highlights of our escapades.
1. Once we landed in San Diego we went straight from the airport to the Padres game. I didn't realize Brennan hadn't been to a Major League Baseball game before so I'm glad I got to take him to our home-town heroes - the Padres. We had so much fun with our small group there and loved just being at Petco Park.
2. Then Saturday was nothing but all wedding. We were so glad to be able to celebrate with Jon and Nicole at their wedding. The ceremony was beautiful as anticipated and we took a couple photos at the temple before the day carried on. Here are a few:
Brennan and me outside the temple. I don't think we'd been back to the San Diego temple since our own wedding. I loved the spring flowers they had out. It was such a beautiful day.
Of course I had to get a picture of all the studs. We're slowly marrying them off. 2 down, 1 on the way, and one more to go.
Alisha decided to take a quick trip down to San Diego too and met us at the temple for pictures.
Then there was a luncheon, a quick one hour stop at the beach for some boogy boarding and then we were back at the reception. There was yummy food, dancing and the usual wedding stuff.
Jon was so thrilled when he saw what we had done to his car, but we did have parental permission. I think we did a pretty good job. Good luck Space Jon!!!
P.S. sorry for saran wrapping you in, but we couldn't have passed on such a great opportunity. You'll laugh about it later :)
Then the wedding festivities were done and we were off to enjoying the rest of our weekend away.
The next day we took a trip up to LA to do the traditional memorial day tasks of visiting ancestors. I was glad we got to squeeze in a stop at the local Armenian Independence Day festival too. It was fun hearing Brennan speak Armenian and we got to try some yummy kobobs, Armenian ice cream, and pastries.
There's not much more to say than that May was an exciting and quick month. We even happened to squeeze in an end of the month BBQ at our house, but unfortunately I didn't take any pictures. It was so much fun having all the Rigbys over for dinner and lawn games. We'll have to do it again soon and I promise to take pictures that time.
