Weekend Fun - California Trip - Part 2

Saturday 10/23

Dad and Jeff joined me for my morning quiet time, which was okay, because it was drizzling the whole time anyway.

Dad and me:


The three of us met up with Brent and Meredith and we drove over to my cousin Eli's gym to watch him practice his gymnastics.

Practicing the high bar:


Video (taken on cell phone - pretty fuzzy):



Here's a "where's waldo" picture of the gym (hint - he's on a pommel horse):


After about an hour of watching Eli do his thing, we headed back to our hotel to check out & get some lunch along the main street of Seal Beach.

We met back up with my uncle's family to walk around Olvera Street - where the city of Los angeles was settled way back in 1818


Uncle Ron, Aunt Nancy and (cousin) Oliver:


Meanwhile, back at home...

It was a typical, fun Saturday morning. Daddy and Amelia went downtown for the farmer's market.

All dressed and ready to go:


Amelia showed off her dance moves for the passers-by:



And enjoyed a cookie snack at the bookstore:


Later that afternoon, she got all dressed up in her Fairy costume and went to the local community Halloween party.

Flitting about, just like a fairy:


Selecting a pumpkin:


This picture is a true statement of Amelia -- a little poof of pink in a world of gray:


Choosing some candy:


Enjoying a treat:


And, of course, a trip to the playground before they headed home.


Sunday 10/24:

I have no pictures from my trip for Sunday. It was spent travelling home!

Meanwhile... back at home:

All dressed up for church - quick playtime before they left:


Later, the headed out to a soccer game:




It was a good trip, but I was happy to be home!

Daddy did a GREAT time one-on-one with Amelia. She was always very well dressed, with nicely-done hair! :)
