San Juan Bautista

My nephew Brendan is in the fourth grade this year and for him it means he gets to do a report on a Califronia Mission. My mom promised him that she would take him to see a Mission during spring break and me, Ellie, and Tanner were lucky enough to get invited to tag along. We decided to visit the San Juan Bautista Mission . It was a lot of fun. I remember visiting a couple of the Missions when I was in the fourth grade and doing my report.

Breanna standing with the Mission behind her.



All the lovely children who we let accompany us.... Of course that roosters that were at the Mission would have probably preferred that we left them behind. The four younger ones chased them everywhere!



Grandma and Brendan went inside the Mission, but we kept the trouble makers out of there.... especially that little blond one, you can't trust him.



Cemeteries..... Oooo..... Creepy.....



Breanna and her three trouble makers.... Ethan, Caden, and Brendan. This picture was taken in the garden area which I loved! There were so many beautiful plants to look at! I think Bree got some inspiration for her own house.
After we were done with the mission we let the kids play at the park for awhile. Then we decided that the adults needed to have some fun too! So we went to...... Gilroy! We looked through a lot of the shops and had dinner. We decided next time to make it a girl trip, leave the boys behind and bring Meghan and Kaleigh along with us.... did you know they ditched us and went to Utah instead, Lame! Oh well we had beautiful weather and they had snow.... serves them right!
