L.A.

Last Monday Annalise and I headed to LA to visit Grandma and Grandpa and friends. The squishy girl was perfect on the plane ride there and had some firsts! She went in a swimming pool for the first time!

Grandma also bought her a kiddie pool so she had her first experience skinny-dipping too! She quite enjoyed it.

The next day she threw her first pool party (co-ed!). Her guest was named Graham. This time she wore a bathing suit.

She got to meet my friend Angela's son Sammy,

and hang out with my dad,

and she finally met Staci's daughters Olivia and Camilla.

She got to go to Orange County and meet Julie, Melissa, Kathy and Jodie, and their kids.

Brody is just her age.

And Mady taught her to play the piano:

The flight home was divine (no tears) and all in all the trip was exceptional. Seeing my friends was invigorating, heartwarming, and refreshing. LOVE YOU ALL!
