We had a wonderful opportunity last week. David had one week off between last semester and the semester that started today. My sister Nicole kindly planned her wedding to take place on the week we had off. So, we flew out to California! We got in real late Monday night the 20th. Tuesday was my birthday so we just relaxed and enjoyed time with family. Grandma Jo (David's mom), made a delicious strawberry shortcake to celebrate. Yumm :)
Peter and Evelyn had sooo much fun playing with their cousins. Anne's kids, Ryan, Natalie Jo, and Jason, played real well with our kiddos. They enjoyed swimming in the back yard and just being kids, playing and running all over.
My older sister Vanessa was able to fly in with her two little ones! It was so great to see them. I got to meet her newest addition, Jackson. He is 6 or 7 weeks old. He is adorable and such a happy camper. He's real easy going. It was great to chat and catch up a bit with Vanessa. I wish they didn't live so stink'n far away!
David, Anne, and Grandma Jo ran a 5k Saturday morning. They all exceeded their goals set for time. David came in 2nd overall. Anne came in 2nd for girls. And Grandma Jo can sure move. They all did great!
David and I thoroughly enjoyed witnessing Nicole receiving her endowment and being sealed in the Fresno, CA temple. It was by far the highlight of our trip to California. Nicole planned out a wonderful reception. My mother, sisters, and I were busy the days up to the wedding preparing food and gathering supplies. Everything turned out beautiful.
