Bray's 2010

Since the Bray's don't have that exciting of a life on a day-to-day basis, I thought I would give an update on all the fun plans we have for this up coming year.

To start off with, TODAY we are going with our friends Tabitha and Brandon to one of our favorite places...


This was a spur of the moment trip, but those always turn out the best. We are going to just enjoy a weekend with our friends and try to relax. No big plans down there as it is suppose to be rainy on Saturday, but if we can find a good deal on a show we will be there!


NEXT...


In April we have a family trip planned down to California. I am so excited as I haven't been to California with my family in years... and I mean years as in when I was in elementary school.

I am so excited because my nephew's Sawyer and Wyatt will be joining us. We will be taking them to....


AND



I cannot wait to take Sawyer to Disneyland and see him react to all the characters. Sawyer did not like Santa Claus this year so we might find that we share a unique phobia. For those of you who don't know, the thing that scares me the most in the world is people dressed up in those costumes. I don't understand it as I know they are just people, but it really freaks me out. I have even worked in one of those costumes myself and seeing my reflection was scary lol... Anyways, I think Sawyer is just the right age to enjoy the beauty and design of Disneyland. He might not remember this trip but we will be able to capture his excitement through photographs.

Sawyer just loves going to the aquarium, or fish and frogs as he calls it, so I just cannot imagine his face when he see's the big water animals at Sea World. Once of the cutest things he does when he see's something cool is go "W----O----W" and says it over and over and over. I think he will just be so amazed at what he see's there his mouth will get dry from him talking so much.


Next....


In July we are venturing off to the big city of New York!!!!



I have never been to New York and that has been one of the place Trent has always wanted to take me. We found a great deal for a long weekend trip and snatched it up quickly! We will be able to tour all of New York and have a few days to just hang out and enjoy the city life.


Next....


The last trip of 2010 will be to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico in October.



I am so excited to go back to Puerto Vallarta.When I went on my cruise to Mexico in 2006 (I think that is when it was) this was my favorite stop. The mountain sides were covered in vegetation that was just a beautiful shade of green and combined with the blue ocean was such a wonderful site to see! I am so excited to be going back. We will be going with Trent's family and will get to stay for 10 DAYS. Yes, 10 whole days!!!

I have two things I want to do while we are there...
1) sit on the beach and get tan (or burned)
2) rent wave-runners and play in the ocean
When I went last time we had excursions planned so I didn't actually get to spend any time at the beach except for the few minutes my friend Rachel and I stopped at a hotel beach for a few minutes just so we could say we did. That was also the first, and hopefully only time, someone has mistaken me for being pregnant.... I have to say, not a fun experience and apparently I can't forget about it.
Trent has always talked about the time when he rented wave-runners at the beach in Mexico and had a great time. Granted when he did it, it was right after a hurricane so he had big waves to play in, but it sounded like so much fun I have wanted to try it as well. So hopefully we can get the chance to try it while we are there.


We are so excited to have the opportunity to go on so many vacations this year and want to get the most out of each experience.


Until Next Time....

Did Trent also tell you he would not let me drive the wave runners because he knew how excited I was to jump those big hurricane waves? I would love to rent wave runners in puerto viarta. It will be an awesome trip. It sounds like you guys will have a great 2010.

What a fun year you have planned! What a great time in your life, enjoy it! It was so cute to hear what you said about Sawyer, I share your thoughts and can't wait to see all his excitement as well. You're such a good auntie and uncle! And I can't wait to hear what you think about New York, I'm sure you will love it!
