California Recap

Miles and I flew to California on Feb. 22nd and came back on March 3rd. It was nice to spend time with my sister and her family. Miles loved being able to play with his cousins Lily and Ian every day. He loved playing the piano with his Kuya Ian (I'm not sure if Ian was as excited as Miles though, hehe) Miles loved everything Ian did. haha

During our trip, we went to Disney California Adventures. The weather was perfect for our outing, so many people were there as well. It was a great time and Miles got to ride a few rides. We even rode the big ferris wheel (I hate ferris wheels, they make me icky) =P 

It was a nice relaxed trip with no specific agenda. A couple friends visited me and Miles, which was nice during the week. My friend Neha drove 2 hours to see us and brought nice gifts for Miles =) So nice of her. It was fun to talk and catch up with her. On our last Saturday, we went to Santa Monica to hang out there.. and my friend Ralph met us up. I haven't seen him since September so it was nice to see him again.

During the week, Miles and I tagged along with my sister doing the carpooling thing with the kids and her friend's kids. Miles really wanted to go to school with his Ate Lily and Kuya Ian. At nights, we hung out at home or went out to eat a few times. We spent some time at the beach before going to dinner one night. Miles loved that...to the point of drama when we had to leave. =P We also went to Lily and Ian's piano lesson on Friday. Miles liked listening to the music while we waited in the waiting room. Also on Friday, we went to Lily's school for their Jog-A-Thon. The weather was nice and sunny and hot. Perfect day to just sit out there and watch kids run. hah

It was so nice to be in California and get away from yucky weather back in the east. It's funny to think that my sister and her family will be here in a few weeks and we can all hang out again.
