My fourth trip to CA this year - on a somber note

Well, it has been a while since I have had time to update my blog. One would think that at only 10 months, I would have lot's of time on my hands to do this but that is not the case. I am busy little guy.

Around the third week of October after watching Uncle Brian, Uncle Ron and daddy get done racing cross up in Westminster, Mommy called and told us that great grandpa Leonard had passed away. I was able to meet him a couple of times before he passed. Here is a pic of us at his house back in March. He was a big baseball fan and loved to be with his kids and grandkids and great grandkids.


We flew out on a Wednesday morning to CA, cousin Brian was with us also and we were there for a full week. I got to see all my great aunts and uncles and cousins. I always seem to be the center of attention when I am there, so I must be popular?

He had a full military funeral with an honor gaurd, taps and a 21 gun salute. He was a B-29 pilot in WWII. There was alot of crying and remembering by everyone. He will be missed by mommy and daddy.

We did go down to San Diego and see cousin Leanne and Jay and the boys. We went to this really cool resturant called Stone World Bistro. We had lunch with them and Ryan, Shannon, Aunt Peggy, Sara, Uncle Dan. They have really good food and their beer is made in house. They have a great park area, a pond with ducks and a firepit inside a water fountain.

We then went to Disneyland with Leanne, Jay, the boys, Aunt Michelle, Great Aunt Patty and Dan Jr. We rode the Buzz Lightyear ride, Dumbo's elephants, Mr Toad's Wildride, The Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Carribean and a bunch more that I slept through. Mommy, Daddy and I also got our pictures taken with Pooh, Tiggerr and Eyeore.

We had a really good time and were there all day and all night. I want to go back and get my picture taken with Micky and Minnie Mouse because I was already asleep when they were out walking around.

We did get to walk at the beach a little bit. Had dinner at The Brussells Bristro, Los Brisas and Dad's favorite, In and Out Burger.

Great Grandma might be coming out after Christmas also. It will be good for her to be in Colorado and seeing all of the other family that was not able to get out for the funeral.

When we finally got back home, the Rockies had lost the World Series, the Bronco's lost in overtime to the Packers and Halloween is just around the corner.
