Road Trip

This Memorial Day weekend, we took a road trip with Peter and his girlfriend Katie to Magic Mountain, IKEA and Hollywood!

The theme park was pretty crowded for the holiday weekend, and the ride X2 had just re-opened and that brought a lot of traffic too. We were able to ride 4 rides in 6 hours and eat a nice leisurely lunch at the Moose Lodge.


We stayed at hotel near the park and then went to IKEA for the first time ever in Burbank. Then we met Samuel and Meg (the boys' older brother and our sister-in-law) at Ribs USA for lunch. It was nice to see them for a little bit.


Then we traveled to Hollywood so the boys could visit the guitar shops. Steven has been wanting to go to Carvin to check out their basses. He is considering building a new one for himself, and wants to purchase the neck from Carvin.


Overall, it was a great weekend. It never rained at the park, it was cold though. We didn't wreck my mother-in-law's car, nobody got sick, and we only got lost once for about 5 min! Pretty successful I think.
