Our First Trip

Last weekend, we went on our first trip with Eliana to visit her great grandparents at the coast. They had not seen her yet and were more than excited to meet their first great grandchild. Oma (German for Grandma) Martin traveled with us as well and it was so nice to have her around to help out.

When we arrived, Eliana was asleep and Great Grandma and Grandpa Sherman couldn't take their eyes off of her. Of course, Eliana kept sleeping and sleeping, but finally she awoke for a short bit to everyone's delight. Great Grandpa Sherman didn't want to put her down once he got a hold on her, but GG was able to steal her away for awhile for some snuggle time of her own. It was so great to have four generations together....what a blessing!

Dylan and I were able to relax a bit, too. We even went on our first outing without our daughter....yes, a twenty minute trip to Safeway...to buy diapers, woohoo! We also took our first walk as a family and took a few pics near the ocean. We didn't quite make it down to the sand, but maybe next trip. We had a wonderful time and think we may be able to take a longer trip soon.
