First trip to Busch Gardens. We used John’s “Here’s to the Heroes” ticket and at that time instead of a one day pass, they gave us a season pass! We were only able to go twice though because I was only visiting for the summer and had to return back to California to finish wedding planning. ...
On my 22nd birthday, we took a trip to Los Angeles for wedding planning purposes and some pleasure as well. We went with my mom and sister and had Roscoe's for the first time. ...
This trip was John's visit after deployment, and also the year and month he proposed (he actually did it a few days after this day trip). I got two free tickets to use for Wild Animal Park because we chaperoned for the school I was working for and they let me bring him along. We were with the students for a bit, and...
This was my first time visiting Joh when he first moved to Virginia. I remember going to the mall after apartment hunting and saw this sign and was like "What the fuhhhh!?" I remember when Virginia was so new to me, and everything was so foreign... now Im basically considered a local! ...
So back in 2008, I spent 6 weeks of my summer vacation with John in upstate NY (Saratoga Springs/Ballston Spa, NY) where he was doing his last phase of schooling. It's a quiet and small town, something I wasn't used to. It was nice. There were a lot of lakes and trees! They only had 1 Wal-Mart, 1 Target and 1 mall, and...
We took a trip to Boston for the first time in June of 2008. It instantly became one of my favorite cities (its funny cuz that list has definitely grown since!). We went the day of the Celtics parade after they won the NBA Championship. It was insane. Im not a big fan of basketball anymore, so I didnt keep track and had...
This was my first visit to see him after he joined the military. He was in A-School at the time of my visit. Look how skinny he was!! We had close family friends living in Charleston so I was able to stay with them while John was in school, then Id hang out with John in the afternoons and over the weekend. It...
I cant remember exactly when in 2006 this was but I know it was before John left for bootcamp. It was our first time at this amusement park and we went with two of our friends who were dating at the time. ...
Our first trip to big bear was in the fall of 2006, we took a trip up with a high school friend who didnt live too far from it, so we took a day trip up to check out the area. It was a nice vibe away from the city. December 2006 - John and I, along with 19 other friends, got together...
This trip marked our first of many out of town trips (with my family). This was sometime senior year in high school I believe. I was so happy when my parents let him come on our annual family trip! We’ve gone to several trips before this, but it was school affiliated, so being able to have him join us for a family trip...
