Ella's First Trip to California

This week we flew to California to visit our west coast family! We had so much fun, though I wish we had been able to stay longer.

Our flight was delayed about an hour and a half, so it was well past Ella's bedtime by the time we boarded. Luckily, she had no trouble sleeping on the plane and spent most of the flight passed out :)

 

We made it! The view from Chad's parents' house is just as gorgeous as I remember!


The morning after we arrived we drove up to Fillmore to visit Chad's grandparents, Noel and Debbie. We had a wonderful time hanging out with them, and Ella fell in love with Great-Grandma Debbie and Great-Grandpa Noel!







 After a great 2-day visit we drove back down to Laguna Beach for an early Christmas celebration.




This was Ella's first introduction to present-opening and she took to it like a natural! She had so much fun tearing into the wrapping and finding surprises inside. 




On Saturday we went to Grandpa Don's 90th birthday party. It was so nice to see Grandpa Don, Grandma Sylvia, and the rest of the family.
