Cali

Our long awaited trip to go see Grandma and Grandpa Terry finally arrived. The only problem... after two months of being healthy, we were all battling a nasty cold/flu bug.  Jackson probably had the worst of it - fever, cough and running nose.  So, Wednesday morning came and I doped him up on Ibuprofen and we headed for the airport.  BJ came to wish us off and help me deal with a crazy two year old at the airport.  It was a long day but we made it!  The trip home was probably just as stressful and Jackson was feeling better.  I decided that no matter what, it is just a huge challenge to travel with a two year old boy! 

This picture was taken when G&G picked us up - you can see how well Jackson feels :(

All considered, we had a great trip and Jackson really enjoyed seeing Grandma and Grandpa Terry.  I just wish we would have felt better so we would have been more fun for them!  :)   We were still able to do many fun things even feeling a little under the weather.  The weather wasn't very warm but we didn't mind (sometimes I think warm weather works against me with Jackson).  There was even a huge rain storm which is unusual for down there.  I took many pictures - here are a few of the fun things we did.

Went for golf cart rides - Jackson's favorite part of the trip!

 Played on the toys

 Played with Grandpa's exercise ball
 Ate Cheetos for the first time
 Rode the train at the mall with Grandma
 Went to the Living Desert and saw animals

 Jackson's favorite (and mine too)

Thanks Mom and Dad for a great trip!  We can't wait to see you more when you return home. Love you!
