San Diego Trip


Derek and I are celebrating our 10-year anniversary in October. To celebrate we planned a trip to San Diego (where we lived for 4 years while going to graduate school) here are some highlights of our trip:

Wicked:We have been wanting to see wicked for a long time...it was worth the wait! the cast was awesome! The girl who played Elphaba had been young Cossett in the origional cast of Les Mes-she was great. After the show I met the actress who played Galinda, she was so sweet!

Padres game: Nina (a former student of mine and dear friend) and Vladimir took us to the Padres game with tickets to the owner's suite and to the dugout; we were feet away from home plate! Our only regret was that we had eaten dinner before we got there-they had SO much delicious food! After the game I got an autograph from Kuzmonoff (one of the locals' favorite players) and Vladimir gave Derek a ball signed by Tony Gwin (a beloved former Padre and hall of famer)!

Visiting old friends: We had so much fun visiting with Nina and her family and also seeing the Connell family some of our dear friends from the 13th ward.


We are so grateful to my sis Becky for staying at home with our boys. We called her so often wondering how they were doing. After a wonderful week we have realized that although it's so great to get away and relax, life for us would be so empty without our little guys that we missed all week long.
