Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving we went to California to visit Andrew's family. Andrew's sister, Haley came with us. It was especially nice because then I could sit in the back seat and Andrew didn't have to feel like a chauffeur. Owen did so good in the car. He mostly just woke up to eat and then would go back to sleep. It was good because it didn't make the trip too much longer than normal. We did have to stop once, in the dark at a creepy rest stop to feed him. Andrew parked in the middle of the parking lot and kept the car running so that we could get away quick if anything sketchy were to happen. I thought it was funny but I guess its better to be safe than sorry.

Owen got to meet his uncle Brandon.


One day we went to the beach and it was 77 degrees! We had a backpack carrier for Owen and he really liked it and slept most of the day while we walked down the beach, looked at tide pools, climbed rocks, explored caves and enjoyed the warmth. We ate at the famous Splash Cafe and had their amazing clam chowder. It's in a bread bowl and topped with shrimp and crab, making it even better. It was crazy thinking that Thanksgiving was only a few days away with it being so warm.









Another day we went to Andrew's aunt's house and Owen got to meet more family. He really liked his cousin Jessica. She was really sweet with him and they just "chatted" to each other. He doesn't normally like when people are close to his face but he didn't mind one bit with her.


We also went to a friendsgiving for pie with Andrew's friends. It was a fun to see them again. We also went to pie night at one of his friend's parents house. We ate a lot of pie that week which is okay with me!

The rest of the week we just hung out, watched movies, I worked on a puzzle, and took naps. It is always nice to get away especially when family is involved. Holidays are just the best.
