While Eric was on a guys trip in the Wind River, Jack & I went home to CA for the weekend. It was so nice to be back in California. Going home for the weekend made me realize HOW MUCH I love and miss CA. 
We got to LA at 8am Friday morning. My mom & Jimmy picked us up from LAX. We went to The Oaks mall and went shopping for a while. OMG that mall is SOO nice! A fraction of what it used to be. When we got back to Santa Paula my mom watched Jack while I got a much needed back massage. That night we went to the local car show. My favorite was an old Ford from 1917! It was fun to stroll around on Main St. Jack & I made it on the front page of the paper. I new that kid was going places!
On Saturday we went shopping at the Camarillo Outlet Mall. Gotta love shopping! Ann came over Saturday afternoon... I love hanging out with her!! Ann, myself and Heidi went out in Ventura Saturday night. So much fun!!! I'm still laughing about it today.
On Sunday Aunt Connie, Charlene & her boyfriend Joe came to Santa Paula tomeet Jack. We all went down to the Fandango. Whats a Fandango you ask?? Well, its like a street fair with music, food, and vendors. Good local fun!
Monday grandma took Jack to the Labor Day parade. He loved seeing all the excitement! Later we went to Santa Maria to see Grandpa and Laura. We loved seeing them, and we got to meet their puppy Smokey. Smokey must have known Jack was just a little baby because he gave Jack lots of kisses and was extra gentle to him. On our way home we stopped in Santa Barbara to see my cousin Anna and her little girl Juliette. Juliette is so precious and she gave Jack some nice toys and a book. 
We came home on Tuesday. Traveling alone with an infant is a lot of work!! Its nice to be home. Jack was SO happy to see his Daddy. We both really missed him!
