We set off for what has become our annual trip to Cali the second week of March. Garrett was excited about getting on an airplane again, and I was praying Scout would love it, too. G loved it, as usual, particularly having so many new conversation partners. He noticed a man with a long ponytail when we got on the plane, and just had to talk to him when we saw him later on the way to the bathroom. He always notices alternative looks (long hair on guys, colored hair, tattoos) and is compelled to give compliments. The man was nice enough to say nice things about G's hair, too. We did everything we could think of to help Scout sleep, but she fought it like a heavy weight champ. She finally fell asleep 30 min. before we landed, completely spralled out across both of us, forcing us to remain in what became quite uncomfortable positions.
T (what G calls their aunt) met us curbside, and immediately bonded once again with the kids. L.A. traffic was unusually light, so we took a little detour and stopped at our old house, which was Garrett's first house. When we finally got to the cousins' house, it was a grand reunion for the kids. G and Scout wasted no time getting acquainted with new toys and a new backyard. Scout loved Emerson's stuffed animals, and G had fun racing his aunt on Parker's zip line. Both kids were super excited to see Big Al (what G calls Ryan's brother) when he came home, too.
