some California highlights...

The biggest highlights for Zoey were meeting Garrett, Jeffrey, and Carson,

seeing Jilian, Jaimee, and Maya again,

Carson and Zoey (Can't you see she loved every single second of being loved?)


Jaimee and Jeffrey
being loved by Grandma and Grandpa Mouritsen,

Garrett and Grandma


Grandpa and Zoey
and meeting Uncle Mark.
Again, can't you see how thrilled she is?

Some highlights for me me were, of course, spending time with my family (especially my sisters, though there are no pictures of that!),

Jeffrey and Dalene

seeing Zoey enjoy this amazing thing called sunshine,

Zoey's cousins were so good to her!


eating grass - yes, I even let her get a little dirty

seeing dear, dear friends,

Cindy Hotz Peachey and Dalene


Zoey and Annalee - Cindy's daughter


Dalene and Jenni Jespersen Frisby

and, clearly, eating yummy food from the best donuts (almost daily) to In 'n' Out Burger (twice) to Togo's (thrice).


We miss you, California!

Glad you got to enjoy sunshine, family, good food! Those are the important things in life. The sun will eventually find you back east!

It was so fun to see you - as it always is! Hopefully it won't be too long before we see each other again. By the way, have Melissa give me her friend's address. Ever since you told me she moved here, I always try to figure out which house they live in when I drive down our street.

HEY... I didn't get ANY donuts!!! I am NOT happy.

(How sad is that... all those cute pictures and all I can think about is the donut I didn't get!)☺

Where's the salt and pepper?!--I could just eat her up!

You DO know that you have the cutest baby in the world--right?

What a trip!

In N Out are you kidding me?? I am drooling. I dare not tell my family! I hated it my first time eating there, but quickly came to love it. Only indulging once a month! I am sooooo jealous!
