November Travels

We went over to Pacific Grove for 5 days and stayed in the "Little Yellow Cottage" with Grandma. Uncle Sean & Aunt Tessie were there for a few days, and Lexi was able to see her Godmother Marilyn for a day! Then down the coast we went to visit Lexi's Family in Santa Barbara - she and Hannah had a blast. Then down even farther to Temecula to see family! I wish we had more pictures of Lexi and her cousins - they had so much fun together!

In the tunnel at the park by the cottage house. This is one of my FAVORITE pictures of her!

Uncle Sean and Daddy demonstrating how the Teeter Totter works...

Aunt Tessie teaching about the teeter totter!

At the Monterey Bay Aquarium in the Splash Zone just for kids... Lexi was definitely NOT afraid of seaweed (here or at the beach) and did not quite grasp using just two fingers to touch the starfish - she wanted to just pick it up with her whole hand :-)

Looking under the water at the penguins with dad.

Up high in the sardine dome!

See the Seahorses...
Penguin kisses

Getting sleepy...

Sound asleep while we walked Cannery Row (in the rain) but she was warm and dry!

This is the same spot on 17 Mile Drive in Pebble Beach where we got engaged in 1999.

It was fun to take Lexi here to play!
After getting excited throwing seaweed, we both got a little wet!

So, Lexi found a great spot to be AWAY from the waves!

And a better spot to play with dad!
Last Day in Pacific Grove! Thanks Grandma for a great trip!

At breakfast with Hannah - GIRL POWER!

At the Santa Barbara Zoo - going for a train ride - CHOO CHOO!

Passed out on HWY 1 along the coast... Definitely quite relaxed.

With her cousin on the Big Girl slide.

Ally! So stinkin' cute!

Ronan - you were swallowed by a whale!

She really got the hang of this horse... Giddy up!
