California Part 1

California Part 1     

    We are home from an amazing visit with some dear friends of ours in California! To say I missed them a lot would be a huge understatement. A year was WAY to long. I missed them fiercely and catching up was everything and more than I ever could have imagined!! Darryl, Wilder, and I drove down to Minneapolis so that we could take a direct flight from there to San Diego. Wilder did okay on the drive. There was lots of Sesame Street, stopping, and feeding him rice rusks to pass the time. We stopped at the Target in Fargo for a long break to walk around, eat, grab starbucks, and prepare for the next 3 1/2 hours. Wilder did great on the flight over there. I hate flying…so I did alright. Our friends were there to greet us and I am so glad Darryl took pictures. Those friends and those pictures hold such a special place in my heart! We went out for lunch and to the beach. The next couple days we just hung out, went swimming, drank tea, watched movies, and laughed (so much!!). Unfortunately Wilder came down with an ear infection and had a fever of 104 which was so scary for Darryl and I. But we were so thankful to have such amazing hosts and friends that took care of us while we took care of Wilder. Below are some pictures from the first half of our trip!!
