Wrapping up the trip...

On Friday, we drove from San Jose to Davis, CA where Sarah, Hendel & Julian live. Along the way, we stopped at the Jelly Belly Factory. It was lots of fun to tour....well, mostly. They were making popcorn & some other flavor that day, and it did not smell good. To the point, one of the little girls on the tour lost her lunch... Next time, hopefully they'll be making strawberry!! :) Saturday, the guys when golfing. But before that, we all met up at the local Farmer's Market where Sarah & I bought yummy, fresh croissants. Hers was chocolate filled, and mine strawberry & cream cheese. Sorry, no picture...guess I'll have to go back to get another one! ;) That evening Sarah made cinnamon rolls for breakfast on Sunday. They were really good!!!

After church on Sunday, we packed a lunch and went Sacramento Train Museum. It was really cool! I especially enjoyed riding the train, walking through the museum and quaint train depot town. Wish we could've spent more time there...it was so cute!! They were having some type of festival or special of sorts...there were Irish & Scottish dancers in frontier style dresses, a "church group" walking down the road carrying signs singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic", and lots of other old time-y town type things. :)


On Monday, the guys went golfing, again. :) Brian has decided he never wants to rent a gold cart again as he has lots of fun walking the course with Hendel, plus, it was great exercise! Sarah and I hung around the house, then went to downtown Davis & Trader Joe's..(T.J.'s is a neat grocery store.) after dinner we went for a nice family stroll through Davis.

Tuesday was filled with packing, last minute visiting & rushing to the airport...after turning around to go get Aspen's toy keys that had been washed & forgotten. Aspen did wonderful on our flights! Thank you to everyone who prayed for her! The trip was extra special, and I'm so thankful the Lord allowed us to go. Helene, Hendel, Sarah & Julian were incredible hosts & hostesses!

I'm sorry the pictures are out of order...when I up-load the pictures from my camera hopefully there will be better ones and posted in order. :) I'll get golfing pics up soon!
