The last leg of our trip was to northern California (aka "the place where Richard and I met"). Although a lot of our good friends don't live there anymore, we were able to see a few (Amanda, Cory, Christine & Heather)! We were able to eat and shop at our favorite places and go to the Farmers' Market in downtown of our beloved Chico! But, most importantly we were able to see some of our favorite people in the whole world - my sister, Lora, and her family!
This is the only picture I got of the boys with "the girls". Even though Clive was sad at that moment, they loved playing with Macy and Elle!
We played a lot of Xbox Kinect! Look at our mad skills:
After a couple of days in Chico, we spent our last day in Sacramento. We met our friends, the Jenkins, at the train museum in Old Sacramento. The Jenkins' moved away from our neighborhood last October, so it was so great to see them. The kids loved the train museum as well! 
After lunch, we stopped by one of Richard's school buddy's house and had a good visit with them. Then, off we went for an evening of fun with Richard's two my favorite roommates! Jared and Shane were Richard's groomsmen and will probably always be two of Richard's favorite friends. They just "get" each other and can talk for hours about everything nerdy you can imagine. I'm so glad Shane is married now, so I hang out with Emilee! We stayed up way too late (11:30) and got up way too early (3:30), but it was worth it!
We got home exhausted, dirty and numb from all the traveling; but we are and will be forever grateful for such an amazing trip to see such important people in our lives!
