santa barbara

today we drove from anaheim to santa barbara, where craig's mom grew up.  we spent some time at the beautiful mission.

 we were able to find the headstones of craig's grandparents and his aunt, who are buried in the beautiful santa barbara cemetary, overlooking the pacific ocean. 

this is the house that linda grew up in.  the owner was nice enough to let us come in and also look around the back yard when she found out who we were.

we ended our fun trip at a very cold baseball game.  it was really cold and we all wore our free angels beanies.  the game was much more enjoyable from our vantage point behind home plate.  caroline and i gave up in the 8th inning because we were freezing.  we headed for the car to warm up and read.  we thought the boys would be along soon, but the game went into extra innings.  since we were driving home after the game ended, the boys took mercy on us and left after the 13th inning and the angels won the game in the 14th.  sam was a good sport to leave. 

thanks, craig, for an awesome spring break vacation.
