It's been quite a while since Trav and I took a trip on our own (like 2 years). So, we decided it was time to go. And of course, we hit Disneyland. (where else would the Searle's go) We had so much fun, it was a great time to go. It was decorated sooooo cute for Halloween, we loved it. The Haunted Mansion was completely different, they transformed it into The Nightmare Before Christmas. I think we'll take the kids next year around the same time.
One day we went to LA to a dumpy, scummy, little place called Santee Alley. It's where you get purses, shoes, sunglasses, stuff like that. It's a hole in the wall and kind of funny. My husband was a little scared (wuss), but got some Raiders shoes for pretty cheap (so that was worth it). We missed the kids, but had a blast. We decided that we need at least one trip a year on our own.
My advice to all of you is to go on a trip without the kids once in a while. It's great for your marriage! Also, for those of you who know me, know that I didn't even take a camera. I'm starting to get a bit better with the kids, but for me a Trav (no way would I drag that around). So, sorry, no pictures. I hate pictures of myself anyway!
