As most of you are aware the Gardner's LOVE going on vacation! Who doesn't? Cole and I have realized we only have 4 more summers till Jason leaves on his mission. Only 4! We quickly decided we need to come up with a "Quality over Quantity" vacation strategy. I'm posting this for you, my faithful blog voyeurs, to help us come up with some fun and meaningful vacation ideas for our family. As you can tell from some of these pics we have done some of the necessary family trips, Disneyland (several times), San Diego (Also several times), Walt Disney World (still my favorite!), and even Dallas Texas.
My question to you is where would you suggest? Please keep in mind we have 5 kids and the economic times. Continental US preferred, though cruises are a option.
At the beach and yes that's a naked baby Erik.
Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World. Loved, loved that vacation!(2005-hence the skinny me)
Disneyland with the Hendrickson's in 2006
The "Grassy Knoll" in Dallas Texas when we visited the Quinns in 2008.

maybe RV it to Nauvoo & church history sights. or national parks in the western US (Zions/Arches/Yosemite etc.)
I think DC would be awesome, and Yellowstone. I also think the RV trip to church history sites would be cool in a couple of years, but I think you should add stopping at famous mom & pop diners to that trip (like they do on food network). Canada. Alaskan Cruise. New York. The Carolina's Beaches. Need any more?!
Umm Safford Arizona hello?! You have had the awesome opportunity to see a few of the amazing things Safford has to offer, but not the boys! Just think how much they would love the DQ, the fine Mexican cuisine that Casa Manana has to offer, and don't forget the people watching that can be done at the Super Walmart! If nothing else your boys will never complain about their living conditions ever again LOL! Just a thought! Slap mah fro!
Yeah, yeah....let's RV it to Yellowstone or Nauvoo. That would be awesome. Oh wait...we weren't invited. :(
DC, Williamsburg, Jamestown, Amish country....sound famaliar Cole. That was an awesome trip, if you could do it! Great history lesson too.
I like the Yellowstone idea! Danjee and I took the kids last summer. SOOOOO gorgeous, and very kid friendly. It is a lot of driving, but we enjoyed it a lot.
OK, so if you don't choose Safford then I think you should totally do the church history tour...get the RV and all. That would be so much fun. Maybe the QUinn's could follow you along :)
