D: I was put in charge of filling everyone in on a weekend trip we took to San Jose back in May. Naturally, that means the post will be published now. Originally, our plan was to meet up with my family in Sacramento on the Saturday so that we could see Shannon and Axel. They were in town taking care of my mother, who was fresh off surgery replacing the wiring on her pacemaker. I got a call on that Friday telling me that Dad, Mom, and Shannon were sick with the stomach flu, so they would not be able to make it to lunch the next day. Sensing a need, Alicia and I decided to pack up right then (it was 6pm Friday night, mind you) and drive to San Jose. It turned out to be a wonderful weekend. Alicia, Everett, and I did NOT get sick while we were there. Everett and Axel had way too much fun together, and the grandparents had way too much fun with them. My dad was better by time we got there, so he played with Everett to his heart's content. Like so:
Before this visit, Axel refused to sit up. When he saw Everett doing it, though, he was willing to give it a go.
Shannon and Mom still weren't feeling particularly good, so we offered to take Axel with us on our Cheesecake Factory outing (the one we had planned on in the first place). We were a wee bit cramped, but Axel made it easy for us by falling asleep as the food started to arrive. Alicia did actually manage to get a picture of Aerin's face, but she decided to leave it off and stay on Aerin's good side.
Cousin pictures!!
