Cali Trip

We took a trip to California in March. We finally got the chance to visit Keith's brother Brent and his wife who now live in Beverly Hills. The have a sweet set up with a cute house in a beautiful area of town and the best weather.

This was Selah's first big trip. She rode on a plane and did amazing by sleeping in my lap the whole time. All the new sights, and new people were so fun for her and she did so good. It was like getting to meet a whole new side of her. She of course didn't love all the hours in the car though, but again did better then I expected for sure. We covered so much California territory...LA to Mammoth then back to LA then a full day north to Monterey, then on to San Leandro and the San Francisco.

It was wonderful to get to visit family and good friends that we haven't seen in a long time. We had such a good time and loved the variety of weather. Keith got a couple days of snowboarding in and I even got to ski a couple runs. California is such a cool state, because you can be enjoying the sunshine in LA by the beach and a few hours away have a ton of snow to play in.

Here are some pictures of our travels:

Crazy, but this is the only picture I took while we were in Mammoth. There was so much snow on the ground, but it wasn't to cold.

Then we drove to Monterey to visit our friends Ben and Joy.

The drive took us all day, a long car day. It was a very beautiful drive though. In this picture we were wondering if we were going to go over this bridge...though as we got closer we saw that it wasn't purple water, it was wildflowers!

Highway 58 was so gorgeous, full of rolling mountains and all sorts of flowers of every color.

Joy took us hiking at Point Lobos in Carmel. It was so beautiful.

Selah loved riding on Daddies back.

Sweet Elijah! So full of life.

It was good to be with friends that have been so missed.

Then on to San Francisco

My only picture of Ben. Look at the long hair, I am still not use to it. It was really great to see him. We met him for lunch in at this rad place where they put your fries in the sandwich! genius.

Selah did such a good job taking both naps in her stroller as walked the streets.

We got to stay with Keith's friend Christian, and his sweet wife Caitlin.

Thank you to everyone we stayed with! You were so sweet to give us a place to sleep and feed us such fancy dinners. What wonderful friends!! We had such a good time.
