Pioneer Day? We'll vacation for Labor Day then.

My stake attempted to have a pioneer day picnic, but that's just not the same as a free day off work, fireworks and movie and popcorn that we usually do with my family. But I didn't miss the tradition too much because Ryan's parents came down to hear us speak in church this weekend. (hee hee, they would have come even if we weren't speaking but at least they would have been able to leave sooner and not get home that night at 4 am) We took them to a couple of our favorite restaurants, showed them the Santa Monica Pier, the Hollywood walk of fame and Grauman's Chinese Theater. We had a lot fun together and loved having them come.

Well so Ryan earns a day and a half of time off a month. I want him to have five days for when the baby is born. So, with no time off to really take a vacation, we are planning a sort of suicide trip to Utah the weekend before Labor Day. He'll fly back Monday night, and then I'll drive back later that week. There is still some debate about whether or not I'll be doing it by myself so if you know anyone who needs a ride to Cali that week let me know...

Hey you should talk to Whit and Dan because I know they are planning on going to Disneyland on Labor Day. If nothing else maybe you could at least caravan?
