Randy and Caitlin....

So, the real reason we went to San Diego was for my Brother-in-law's Wedding...Below are a few pics from the wedding, I am still playing with most of the photo's in Photoshop and still am converting some to Black and White, but here is just a taste of some of the pics.

PINKS...

So, Katie really hates it when I watch Food Network(mainly "Diners, Drive-ins,and Dives") because I begin to get ideas on either what to cook or places to eat at...We actually had three places lined up to go eat during our trip to Southern California(1)Hoodad's (a fairly normal Burger joint owned by a surfer in Oceanside) (2) Tioli's Crazee Burgerhttp://www.tioliscrazeeburger.com/ where I was ready to either eat a Kangaroo or Alligator Burger,but we went on a Saturday night and there just wasn't room to eat and we did not feel like waiting (3) Pinks http://www.pinkshollywood.com/, we're in luck,we were able to hit it on the way back from Hollywood...

That's my girl...10" Chili dog with mustard and saurkraut...none went to waste!!!

Mr.Plain Dog...Still polished of a 10" dog and some fries...

California...Land of the Fruits and Nuts

One of the reason I like going to Santa Monica and especially Venice Beach is because of all of the street performers on Venice Beach and the boardwalk. Even though we didn't get to make it to Venice or Santa Monica, we did meet some interesting characters in Hollywood...


Getting ready for Christmas a little early....Notice the elf in his lap...

Elvis Lives.....and wait, Peter Parker isn't the only one to catch Spiderman on film....

Yoda challenging Logan and Jake to a Jedi Dual to the Death...Sorta unfair since all they had were balloon swords freshly made by Captian Jack Sparrow just seconds earlier....

Talk about weird, for Two days we just kept hearing this woman talk about here obsessions for a cartoon mouse....

We're going to Hollywood baby...

So,a few days before our trip back to Southern California for my brother-in-law Randy's wedding, I get a phone call from Jakob and he says,"we're going to Hollywood BABY!!!! So here are a few pics of the kids in Hollywood.
Overall it was a good trip, except for hitting a snowstorm in Flagstaff while driving back. We saw most of what we wanted to, Disneyland, Hollywood, some friends, some family. The only thing we missed out on was a trip to Santa Monica and Venice beach, we just ran out of time, an extra 2 hours in L.A. Traffic put us behind schedule one day...maybe next time...
Logan and Kellsie saw a few names they recognized and had their picture taken by the stars, so Jakob kneeled down and said, "Dad, take a picture of me by this one" It was Britney Spears...only Jakob would randomly pick that one.
