California

So me, cache, mom & ted went to Concord, California at the first of July for a week and a half to watch gramma while my aunt virginia and uncle gil went to macanak island for their 50th wedding anniversary. For those of you who don't know my gramma welling moved to my aunts house last september because she needed to live with someone and so we moved in her house last year. It was so good to see her again since we haven't seen her for awhile. Todd couldn't go cause he had to work and couldn't get enough days off. We left the morning of July 3rd and got there that night around 9. It was a long ride especially from park valley through Nevada, just thinking about Nevada makes me tired it is trailers as far as the eye can see. I think we saw 1 house throughout the whole state, people even had 2 singlewide trailers put together to make a doublewide it was so funny. The drive was so pretty once we hit California. Cache was so good on the long drives. We spent the 4th with gramma and my aunt & uncle going to a parade and driving around the valley looking at all the different fireworks. We went to San Francisco, Jelly Belly factory, Sausalito,Green Valley & Stinson Beach. The road to the beach was about an hour one way and the windiest road I've ever been on, I've never gotten car sick until that road WOOF! Cache slept on the beach for more then 3 hours while me, britany and halli played in the water. (oh ya my sister britany and niece halli met us in california on the 5th) Cache loved the ocean and didn't even care when it splashed up to his arm pits. San Francisco was fun but it was so busy. We spent one whole day at pier 39 it was so fun seeing all the street performers. We spent a few days at Green Valley Country Club. We went to the driving range, golfing, and got some great golfing tips from my uncle. We missed todd's birthday while we were there but celebrated it when we got back. We missed todd so much. Cache would talk to him on the phone everyday and laugh when he heard his voice. It was so fun to see gramma and spend so much time with her. We miss her so much I wish we could still see her everyday. We love and miss you gramma
