California dreamin'...

Raegan and I traveled with my dad again this December to visit his family in the Bay area. Traveling with a super active 2 year old presents its challenges, of course, but she did so well! Mommy was proud.

The right side of my body was a bit numb by the time we landed from her constant wiggles and squirms! As the plane was taxing into the Oakland airport she stands up, turns around to the folks behind us, and exclaims loudly, "we made it!"

Ok, and turns out Danny Glover really WAS sitting a few rows ahead of us! My dad and I both did a double take, then looked at each other and whispered, "is that... Danny Glover??" as the poor guy was walking back to the bathroom. So... we ended up standing near where he was sitting at baggage claim and that's where this photo was taken during a fun conversation with the movie star.

Anyway, Raegan played with her great-grandparents and loved visiting their condo each day. Get this- My 83 year old grandfather was playing on the floor, getting pretend shots from Dr. Raegan! And my Grandma, despite her recovering hip injury, was doing the Hokey-Pokey and getting checkups too! Love you guys!

My wonderful cousins, and Aunt & Uncle came down for a night as well, and we had a fun dinner party together. (Along with two more old friends.) Matt and Liesl made my job so easy that night, making Raegan laugh, reading books, rolling on the floor, etc... Pretty much everyone had dozens of "shots" and "checkups" by the time goodbyes rolled around.

It's officially a tradition. I adore traveling anywhere with my dad. Always great places, yummy food, easy going attitude, and FUN! Thanks for the wonderful adventure!
