Trip Home: Part A

So, I have been away. HOORAY for away. Today's a new day. Say hey! Ok sorry, my glee at having a vacation and going home for a week caused me to channel Dr. Seuss for a second there but I'm over it.

Check out this beautiful picture:


So many lovely faces all in one place! JOY! J and I flew on home to LA last week and it was SO needed and enjoyed. We pretty much ate and drove around for a week but that's all you're supposed to do in LA anyhow. Oh and we got to spend some serious quality time with our kins. You know how it is. My bro and me at his pimped out office balcony overlooking Wilshire Blvd. Yea he fancy:


We flew in on the 4th of July which was nifty. Jonathon and I cruised up to Griffith Observatory to watch fireworks go off all over LA, it was pretty incredible.



Of course we got to spend some QT with Jon's sweet mom and Gammer.



Viva Los Doyers! We drove up to the top of Dodger Stadium to buy tix for later in the week and to soak up the views of beautiful downtown LA.




Things LA has that Florida doesn't: a) my family b) good food c) good shopping d) perfect weather. Yea, it was a little tough to leave. One of the highlights of our trip besides seeing loved ones was all of the fun shopping we got to do! We even found name plates with both of our names spelled correctly! It was thrilling. :)



We did a lot of eating. And I mean a lot. Like, gained 5 pounds in 5 days a lot. It was grand. Me and my handsome husband out for one of our delicious dinners with the crew.


BFFs


I love these goofballs.


AND I love these goofballs.


My beautiful family (sans beautiful husband of course).


Oh I want to go back just looking at these pictures is TORTURE. It is nice to be home too though. Things Florida has that Cali doesn't: a) my TEENY boy. I got the world's best snugglies from the baby upon my return so I shouldn't complain.

Part B of Cali trip to come soon!
