David got to go to his first wedding - for Josh's cousin Sarah and Cory - and it just happened to be in California! It was my first time to California too, so we made a long weekend out of it and got to spend time in San Francisco after the wedding (which was in Upper Lake at the Sarasota Springs retreat center).
The wedding was amazing - we spent the whole weekend with all of Josh's relatives and met lots of new friends too. The venue, and the drive up and back, was beautiful. We saw lots of vineyards, lakes, and cows! We didn't get too many scenery shots but we got a TON of family pics. SO, let's let the pics do the talking :)
First, the way there - David did awesome on the plane ride there & back (this was his third flight, after all - he's a pro!). Here he is checking out the rockies:

And spent some time with our favorite cousin Sue:

And hanging with with our most favorite uncle, great-Uncle Ray!

It was truly one of the most beautiful weddings I've ever attended, filled with love and great times spent with family and friends. And if David remembers anything about it, I'm sure he'll agree :)
After the wedding festivities were over, we stopped at Armstrong Redwoods on our way back to San Fran. The redwoods are ENORMOUS! Pictures don't really do them justice, but we tried :)
We also took a detour to try and show David (and me!) the Pacific Ocean, but it was pretty foggy and drizzly, so this was the best shot we got along the side of the road.
We didn't get many shots of David in San Fran (he slept for the whole 2hrs we toured around the city!), but here he is with daddy hanging out in the hotel room on our last day in Cali. (he looks like he's 5!)
We had such an awesome trip - David once again got flying colors for his traveling skills (even if he doesn't sleep great overnight when we're in strange places, the actual travel part of our trips are always great, so we just need to schedule time to sleep when we get home! :)).
And here's one final shot of him entertaining himself on the flight home:

| Not sure this counts as David 'seeing' the Pacific Ocean.. guess that just means we'll have to come back :) |
