Summer California Trip


We had a wonderful visit to California this summer. It was Eliza's second time flying, and she did great! We were able to catch up with many relatives, and took several mini vacations along the way. We made our way up the California coast to Fort Bragg and Mendocino, where Eliza got to see the ocean for the first time! (We found it humorous that she saw the Pacific ocean before the Atlantic.) We were accompanied by my (Heather) mom, brother Adam, and Kristin. It was a quick trip there, but we got a lot of site seeing in, and some good eats. We then made our way to Chico for a couple of days and stayed with Adam and Kristin. We had a lovely picnic, and found an amazing park for Eliza to play. We then made our way back to Live Oak for a couple of days, to visit with my mom, cousins, and our Great Aunt Dorothy. Flying back home through San Francisco gave us the opportunity to visit with David's Aunt Greta, and her husband Richard. It was their first time meeting Eliza, and we had a wonderful evening and night with them, full of conversation and many laughs. It was a great trip with many photos and memories.
