Our First Trip back to California Together










Chet and I flew to California last Wednesday and spent a week there. As I’m typing this Chet is just getting home and I’m on my layover to fly home. This past week has been a very busy but fun filled week. Chet hadn’t been to California in 10 months and 7 months for myself. He went ten months without seeing his brother John and friends. Our first night in Cali we went to Bangkok Blue for dinner (Chet and I’s favorite restaurant of all times) with John and Shauna. It was so delicious!

Thursday Chet and John went to John’s San Diego house and spent the night while I met up with my dad, and then Shauna. I got to see Syenna and play with the most adorable baby girl ever. She’s now 7 months and is so much fun to play with. That evening we went to dinner with my mom, brother, nanny, Bill and the Itzen family. We had a great time.

Then comes Friday. Chet and I made Dottie, Sean, Christina and Manny dinner and brought it to the Tarcon’s house. We met Brooks, Dottie and Sean’s three-week-old baby girl. Hanging out with them was so much fun. And the stuffed pasta shells were a success. Saturday was another busy day going to my dads house, then bringing dinner to the Bracci’s house and meeting their one month old baby boy, Carter. Following that we met Beth and Eric at their new place. We opened a bottle of wine and caught up with them and many other friends. We had a blast!!!!

Sunday was a crazy day. Bill (my nanny’s husband) fell and broke his ankle. The paramedics picked him up, they put on a soft cast and he might have to get surgery. Please keep him in your prayers for a fast recovery. After we heard that Chet and I went to nannies early to help mom and Ron get ready for the family party. We celebrated Mother’s Day and Christian’s Birthday. Sunday was another great day that ended with Usama Bin Laden dead and we spent the night at nannies.

Monday we helped mom pack up Malin’s office, had lunch at the most delicious Mexican restaurant, enjoyed a walk with Granna, dinner with Dad and the family and later on met up with Beth and Eric again. Tuesday we decided to go to Newport Beach, get some color, enjoy Taco Tuesday and stay the night at the guy’s house. Another very fun night.

And now it’s Wednesday. Dropped Chet off at the airport and enjoyed the afternoon catching up with Alex.

I never realized how busy we would be when visiting California. So many people to see, babies to meet and places to eat at. J We had so much fun, but now we’re excited to get back home. I have to say the food in Cali is much better than Montana. I got to enjoy all our favorite restaurants.
