Soquel, California

So over Thanksgiving, Jon, Bella, and myself joined some of Jon's family in California. I don't mean to brag, but it was mid sixties to seventies the whole time we were there :-)  We had a fun time up in a sea of Redwood trees, and watching the deer from the back patio.  I gained 4 pounds in the 5 days that we were away. YIKES!  Too much delicious food to resist.  Bella enjoyed time with her grandpa Gary (papa), and got to see the

 ocean again.  She also enjoyed seeing her GREAT Grandparents.  Grandpa Don is hanging in still in a nursing home, and we got some very sweet generational pictures while we were there (Thanks Janet!).  It was a long, fun, filling, beautiful, entertaining, warm trip.........
