The weekend of his birthday and father's day, Brian and the boys went on vacation to Southern California. On Friday they met up with Mark (one of Brian's good friends he met while working at DaKine) and his family. They went to Universal Studios. The hits of the day were Water World and Jurasic Park. On Saturday, Brian got to go to Disney for FREE because it was his birthday. They had a lot of fun with Mark's family; Mark has 2 boys similar ages. It was a lot of driving, but Brian said it was worth it. Even if you factor in that Eli puked going over Donner Pass both times. :o)
