Trip to California Cont.


Lunch with Great Gampy...He will be off to visit his sister Ella and in Phoenix and brother in San Antonio...tomorrow morning...so we had to get our visit with him early on...We are at Lenny's...oh...no... I mean Denny's for "Linner"...you know that time between lunch and dinner...Isabelle and Papa were handling the other end of the table...with Isa belle telling Papa all about "it"... I really don't know what this was all about, but she was surely telling him something...

Now we're back at Dan and Marilee's...where they are playing "Pirate Ship/Captain Jack"

"AARRRRRR Matey!!!"
Kaley was havin just as much fun as Isabelle...or at least it sure looks like it!!!
I sure love these little sweeties...

It was really not as hot down there as it could have been...but for me it was not comfortable, so we tried to sty where it was cool...We went to the movies once...7 of us...to see "Ratatouille"...then one evening Dominic, Johanna and Kaley went to the show to see the latest "Harry Potter" movie...

We spent time with our friends Joe and Dianne one day and finished up our planning for our up-coming Cruise to Alaska... I can't wait to get on that ship...

I spent one afternoon with Jenn and Autumn and Jackson...

Being there for just a few days was really hard when it came to getting in all the visits...and no we didn't make it to each and every person that we wanted to see...

But the real reason that we were there was to spend time with Dominic and Johanna...our nephew who just retired from the Marine Corp and his daughter that lives with her mother in Iceland...she is 9 years old...In the first picture, below...you have Johanna and Isabelle and in the second one is Dominic and Kaley...Yep, you're right...we're at "In-&-Out Burgers"..for the second time that day...The girls all love it so that's a GOOD place to go for dinner...

Dominic has spent his 20 year career in the Marines...he has done many tours in the "Sand Country"...protecting our soil from terrorists...We are so proud of him and love him dearly, and wish him all the luck in the world in his quest for a new career...and thanks so much for bringing Johanna to visit us...

Yep...I was there too...Here the girls are making McDonalds dinner...it is amazing to watch the the three of them interact...age doesn't seem to be a problem at all...they just got along so well and played endlessly...Having a wonderful playroom with all the needed props is pretty good too... None of them eat much so a "pretend" McDonald's diner was just what they needed...


Seeing Kaley, Johanna & Isabelle together has been really nice...They are so much alike...in so many ways...yep they are all girls...now there's a good place to start...Their hair is almost all the same color, they all like "In & Out", they all like ice cream!!! and most of all they love their Mema and Papa...

Thursday,our last day in Sacramento!!! The kids (Kaley and Johanna) along with Mike and Dominic went to "SunSplash" in Roseville...for the whole day!!! They had a great time...you'll just have to take my word for it until someone sends me pictures,that is when i went to see Jenn, Autumn and Jackson...Then we went to dinner at Granny's favorite restaurant "Jumbo Chinese"...we just love it...The food is wonderful...

Kaley and Johanna playing...Aunt Patti and Johanna checking out the Chinese Calendar...Now we have Kaley eating SHRIMP...now that's a first...she was really stepping out of her comfort zone...she tried several different shrimp dishes and other dishes as well...I was really proud of her...Now we have Marilee taking a picture of Kaley eating Shrimp...this ws a big event guys!!!Here's the group...there were: Marilee ans Isabelle, Aunt Mimi and Uncle Ralph, Dominic and Johanna, Lee Merchant, Aunt Patti, and Mike and I...it was a great dinner and a great time...


Thank you Lee for dinner...it was so nice of you...Our little girls...



Kaley, Johanna, Isabelle
