Friday night we went to the drive-in movie in Dallas for a girls night with Heather. Saturday I went to Heather's house for a few hours to hang out while Katie spent the day with Grandma Bonnie. Grandma Bonnie made dinner for all the family who were able to come celebrate Katie's birthday on Sunday. Inside all of the fun were many good byes that were rather sad. But early Monday morning, we said good bye to Grandma Bonnie and Bill and began the first league of our journey - Grass Valley, CA. It took a few hours of loading and unloading, arranging and rearranging the back of the pick up, but we got it in - dresser, night stand, bike, and a few other things too. :) The road south was a little heavier than the poor truck was expecting, but it made it safely to Grandma Morrish's house Monday night.
Tuesday was a relaxing day, which was lovely after our previously busy last few days. Katie and I hung out with Grandma and Jack for most of the day. For dinner we met Kevin, Kris, and Dresden; Adam, Leslie, Hannah, and Elijah; and Melissa, Charlie, and Jack at the park for a celebratory picnic dinner for Katie's 19th birthday!
The fair opened on Wednesday and we all enjoyed the animals and the food and the shows. Katie had fun with Hannah on a few rides. As a grand finale of the rides, Katie and Charlie rode one of those that flip you upside down. I have pictures, but I haven't loaded them onto my computer yet, so they will come soon. It was a very enjoyable day and so great to spend it with our cousins and grandma in Grass Valley.
We drove to Redondo Beach today and had dinner with Alan. It was so fun to see him! Christmas was the last time we all saw each other, so we all had a lot to talk about.
Well, that's all for now. More to come in a couple days...And with pictures, I promise.
