Convention and California Vacation Recap!!

I sooo enjoyed convention! My friend and downline Cathy got to attend for the first time and we had so much fun, especially since we were stationed at the fabulous Disneyland Hotel. We got to play at Disney for a couple of days and then ooh and ahh over all the exciting announcements that convention brings...

Here are some highlights of Convention and Disneyland....


What a fun surprise to push a button on the night stand and hear the song "A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes" while the hand carved wooden headboard lights up with fireworks above the castle. We knew we were in for a fun filled week!



Off to Disney and Monsters Inc.



Here is a sample of all the different sizes our new cricut cartridge can produce of this 3-D flower. Anywhere from 1/4 inch up to 11 3/4 inch of 700 different images!!! Unbelievable versatility!




Cathy and I "on stage" at the end of convention.

On Sunday, Bryan and the kids came out to join me and we headed to Carlsbad to experience Legoland again and escape the hot weather and head to the beach!

Here are a few pictures of our trip....



Leah and Ian with Hagrid...



The kids at the new Sea Life Aquarium...



And at the new Legoland Water Park....



We bought a boogie board for the kids to try....They absolutely loved it!!!


We found a restaurant in Carlsbad called Tip Top Meats which was basically a huge European Meat Market complete with whole suckling pigs and every kind of meat and meat delicacy you could think of. We ended up eating there twice and here was Bryan's Jagerschnitzel that he ordered the second night there.....We would go back there in a heartbeat and recommend it highly!!
