California

Matthew and I returned from our long weekend in Santa Cruz last night. I can not believe how good the child was, especially on the plane. Alaska Airlines deserves a big shout out; they block out the seat next to a lap infant unless the plane is 100% full. It was great to be able to set him down in the seat and let him take a nap. We met the Uncles Brian in Santa Cruz and saw a lot of fun things: the beach, the boardwalk, and of course, Trader Joe's! Natalie adores freeze dried Mango that of course is not avaliable in Austin. I stocked up. The rental house was a nice little house and Matthew and I had our own room. Michelle and Pete had a lovely wedding. They rented a sweet, very pretty home and it was perfect for the occasion. Michelle wore a gorgeous dress from the 50s that was tea-length, perfect for her since she is a tiny lady. The weather was chilly but it warmed up for the ceremony and the sun was shining. All in all it was a great weekend. Last night was hard just because we got home around 12:30 and had to be up for Meagan's school bright and early. Matthew did it much better than I did!
