My Trip - Part 2

The last day I was there, Grandma took me to Laguna Beach. We ate lunch at this beautiful restaurant by the ocean. I guess it's a restaurant they've been going to for over 60 years!!! We just walked along the beach a little and took some pictures.

My lovely grandmother




We got some people to take our picture and it ended up they were from Germany!!! It seemed like such a coincidence that we'd meet people from Germany just like us.



It was alot of fun and a nice relaxing vacation, but I'm glad to be home. I really missed my guys!!! I hope I can take Eric there in the next few years when he's able to enjoy it more.

My Trip - Part 1

I took a week-long, baby free trip to CA to visit my grandparents. It was so much fun to see everyone but it's good to be home.

The first day I was there, my grandma took me to get glamour photos taken. It's kind a little tradition she has started with the granddaughters. It was so special. I felt like a model, they do your makeup and hair and then show you how to pose.
This is the pose we picked and I really like it.



I then went up to my Aunt's house in the mountains for a few days. My uncle is a football coach at the highschool so I got to go and see my first football game. It was fun and I understood it more after my aunt explained the basics of football to me!!! Afterward, we went to a victory party and had a feast of enchiladas, taquitos, homemade refried beans, chips-n-salsa, and salad.



My Aunt Ronda and I at the game...it was freezing cold but we got to sit in the announcer's booth which helped.

The next day we went to a recording studio to get the harmony part recorded on a song my aunt wrote. It was really fun to see how everything gets put together and wonderful to hear her song.

This is a picture of the house they are building. It's really spectacular.



I got to go to my cousin Philip's wedding while I was down there and it was lots of fun. I saw my other cousin Jason, Uncle Tom and the Dalys (sp?). I only got pictures from one side during the ceremony. Here is Philip at the altar.



My cousins, April and Jessina were bridesmaids.
