Palm Springs for Baron's 40th Birthday!

For Baron's 40th birthday we went to Palm Springs for a getaway weekend while Baron's parents, Granny and Pappy, stayed with the boys.  We first stopped at the March Air Base museum to check out some great airplanes.   The we made a quick stop at the Skechers Factory store.   Once in we arrived in Palm Springs we were off to dinner and then to see the famous Palm Springs Follies.  The Follies was a wonderfully funny show. The next day we went to the Desert Springs Cemetery to see Frank Sinatra and Sonny Bono's grave sites.   We then took a short drive to Joshua Tree National Park.  It was a bit cold there but it was so beautiful.  That evening we caught a movie.  The next morning we took some pictures of the Marilyn Monroe statue and the Elvis and Priscilla Honeymoon House.  Then it was off to home.   We had a wonderful time and we are so thankful for Granny and Pappy for watching the boys so we could get away.  Happy Birthday Baron!
