hello.......Heeeelllloooooo...... HHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO??? Anyone still out there? I have become a horrible blogger. Life does get in the way sometimes. I have MUCH to catch up on, but for now, I need to tell you about our FAMILY VACATION!!!!! Can I start off by saying that this trip has been 25 years in the making?? I have never been to California so this was QUITE the experience.
It all started at 4:00am Monday morning when thank goodness my alarm went off. I was bursting with excitment so it wasn't that hard to get up. After packing the car, and getting the kids up at 4:30am, we were on our way. I thought that I could scoop Kam out of her crib and gently put her in her carseat and she would go back to sleep. OH NO. That little lady had eyeballs the size of saucers and was raring to go. We made it to the airport at 5:30 (courtesy of Dad) and boarded our flight pretty painlessly and without any waiting. Sad to say, one member of the Kilner family did not make it on time and had to wait till the next day to take a flight. The plane ride was alright. I guess as good as could be expected. I got stuck on one side of the plane with Calvin next to me and Kameron on my lap. Brian got to sit on the opposite side of the aisle and got to take a nap (funny how that happens... and no, I'm not bitter). But HALLELUJAH! After 2 hours and 30 minutes we finally arrived at LAX!!! We got a shuttle to our hotel and since it was so early we didn't get to check in yet. But we rented a giant van and drove to Laguna Beach. I will post pictures momentarily because there is nothing that I can say that will do it justice. It was WONDERFUL. Kameron slept on a beach towel a majority of the time, and Calvin liked running from the waves and playing on the beach. The waves were awesome and Brian went body boarding. And I just layed there and soaked up all the vacation I could (after the plane ride I sure as heck needed it). It was perfect in every way. We got back to the hotel, unpacked, and headed out to dinner. I took the kids swimming at the hotel later and then we hit the hay.... Disneyland was day number 2 and we were going to need some rest.
