Wow! I really need to get better at posting updates on the blog. Lots has been going on recently, so it'll be a few posts to get caught up. Here's the highlights of our California trip to Blizzcon.
London had her first experience with the SLC and Long Beach Airports and being on a plane. We had an easier time on the flight home, than the flight there. I think the chocolate chip cookies and watching Scooby-Doo that Jetblue has made it easier.
Drew tried to give London an animal cracker. London looked at it, but it back on the tray and then pointed to the chocolate chip bag "Cookie!" She informed us that animal crackers are NOT cookies.
We went to the Rainforest Cafe with my Aunts Margaret and Ruthanne, who were on their way to visit my cousins Thomas and Kara. London really like the waterfall and the stuffed gorrilla and monekys, but the "thunderstorms" scared her.
We also went to the Santa Anna Zoo at Prentice Park. London really like the monkeys and parrots. We had a great time playing on the playground there and going to the farm petting zoo and seeing geese,pigs,sheep and goats. We left with a stuffed monkey that she now carries around with her
Another first was playing the pool at our timeshare. We started out in the smaller kids pool. London sat on the step and splashed her hands in the water. We worked our way over the big pool which she really liked. A few of the other kids were jumping in doing cannonballs. She would laugh everytime they jumped in. She is getting more independant all the time. She wanted me to let go of her so she could go off on her own, but since we were in four feet of water I had to disagree.
Drew and the boys(Steve,Spencer, and Kenji) had a great time at Blizzcon seeing the demos for new games and going to the Foo Fighters concert.
We made it back home safetly and started gearing up for Halloween.
