Vacation in Redding CA

We weren't able to get a picture of Bryce by the bus, so we took a picture!!

After a few days in portland, I surprised my mom in Redding. I knocked on the door, she answered and was SO excited....it was great. The next day Bryce came to Redding on a Greyhound....he left at 10:00 p.m and got to Redding at 7:00 a.m. While in Redding we went mini-golfing, aqua golfing, Frisbee golfing, and real golfing. LOTS OF GOLFING!! It was a lot of fun. We went to dinner with my parents, went shopping, visited people. It was great. Bryce said it wasn't relaxing at all becuase his idea of being relaxed is doing nothing so I had an idea. We floated down the Sacramento River....but still not relaxing enough for Bryce. Bryce turned into a tomato in the wonderful 85 degree weather! It was beautiful there and Bryce is a beautiful shade of Red. Bryce also went on a motorcycle ride with my Dad and 2 buddies. He did really good for not going for 6 years, but took a couple hard falls. We had a really good time, but it's nice to be home again. One of the reasons we went to Redding is because 3 months ago our car was totaled and so my Dad told us we could have the old car (99 Benz) because he was getting my mom a new car for their anniversary. My mom, didn't know this, hence the surprise! :) It was a huge blessing. We love it, but man it's hard not to speed in it! the tank's huge. $70 to fill up, but we can get from RENO to REXBURG on one tank! Crazy hugh? Life is good. I'm going to start the twilight book today....I'm pretty excited. Oh and I got a 3.75 GPA for my last semester and now I'm officially a college graduate! THANK GOODNESS! I Don't think I would have been able to take one more semester.
