While the rest of our family left for Portland/Utah/Wyoming, only brave Grammy stayed for a few extra days past New Year’s! She courageously volunteered to watch all four girls so that Jake and I could drive down to San Diego for the Utes Bowl Game and stay overnight in San Diego.
Our friend and fellow Ute fan, Lucero, went to the bowl game with us, as well as Kennedy and Sebastian, plus Lucero’s sister. It was cold and rainy, but fortunately our seats were in the suite level, and we were so grateful we weren’t watching the game in the miserable rain. Little Sebastian understandably started to get tired, so they ended up leaving at half time, something we probably should have done too! The second half of the game was a disaster and we’ll just say Jake didn’t want to talk for like three hours afterwards.
We walked the coast and Seaport Village on New Year’s before driving back home to relieve Grammy of her duties!
Back at home, the girls had a little New Year’s celebration of their own. Grammy was pretty exhausted when we got home, but everyone was in one piece!
Eleanor had a great first day of 2019 on the swings.
After New Year’s, we took our annual new year’s beach photos at Aliso Creek.
Attempting to get Eleanor to sit up long enough for a quick shot.
Good job, Eleanor!
2019 here we come!
Lots of love,
