A trip to FCCLA Nationals has been a staple of my Summer for my entire career. I've been to lots of fun places: San Diego, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Orlando and of course...Anaheim, CA. I've missed the last few years due to budget cuts and other factors. This year I was back in action. We took a group of 13 girls and 2 boys and spent a week attending meetings, competing in events and having a good old time at Disneyland. I've decided 5 days is the perfect amount of time to take teenagers on a trip. 7 days is 2 too many. :) It's a long week with non-stop action. I was exhausted at the end, but glad to have been there. 
We took a few of the girls to church at the Crystal Cathedral. A fun and different church-going experience. That's one of my favorite things to do...find somewhere new and interesting for church while we're gone. It's fascinating to see how the various churches operate. 
Diane and I have been to Anaheim three times now with FCCLA. Each time we're there we have tried to have lunch at the Blue Bayou. You know, that cool restaurant you see at the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Well, this year we finally made it! Totally worth it! Ambiance. Delicious. Dream. Come. True...
