Daddy had some business timed in California which coincided on the dates that Nana & Poppy would be there home sitting a house on the beach. We decided to join them all for a last minute trip, and stayed with Mimi in Manhattan Beach. Cousin Andrew and his family joined us mid-way through the trip.
Your first flight ever was uneventful with exception to the fact that both you & Kenzie had colds. But, once we grounded - the fun began...although I wouldn't peg it as one of the more relaxing trips we've ever taken. :) You were a lot of work for me, especially in a lovely home with fun things to dismantle!
There were several beach visits. We were all excited to introduce you to the ocean. You squealed with glee at the rushing water and hurriedly crammed some handfuls of sand in your mouth. Fortunately, you quickly learned this was not a thing to be repeated!
The time change was a bit rough...finding us awake at about 5:00-5:30 a.m. each morning. That's not my favorite time to be up, that's for sure. But, beach time is really therapeutic for the soul and we were soon all smiling again.
The flight home was a bit scary due to poor weather - but you slept through the majority of it, snuggled in my arms. Your first flight, first vacation, and first introduction to California was a wonderful adventure. We can't wait to do it all again!
