Family comes to CALI! Part 1



In July my Mom, Grandma Julie, and sister Katelynn came to Redding to visit us and see where we live and what we have been up to! I was so excited to finally have family come see me! So Brian and I had to drive to Oakland to pick them up on Friday night!
My mom, Brian and Grandma eating dinner the first night they got here.

We drove until midnight and finally made it to Redding! We crashed when they got here. Everyone was so tired! On Saturday morning everyone got up and ready we took them to my favorite spot in Redding, The Sundial Bridge!


Next we went to the Turtle Bay museum that was really fun because Brian and I haven't been there either so it was a new experience for all of us! We watched an animal show and fed the birds! One bird even licked Brian and wouldn't stop!


Then we just kinda hung out the rest of the day and did some shopping! On Sunday I woke up sick so we didn't do much! We went to the flea market and shasta lake damn and then just rested!



On Monday we decided to head to the lake!



The lake is always so beautiful! and we had a blast! Then we went to dinner with Brian's parents so they could meet my family!






Tuesday we went to a waterpark that is here in redding and that was a BLAST!!! Water is always good in Redding because the temperatures in the summer are usually over 100 degrees!






Then we took Mom, Grandma, and Katelynn to In n Out for there first time! 

Katy and Brian being silly! 

I will finish this up in another post! 

Thanks for reading!






June Idaho Visit

At the beginning of June we decided to take a quick trip to Idaho. We left on a Friday night, drove all night and got there Saturday morning. Spent Sunday and Monday there and drove home all day Tuesday. It was so fun to go see everyone even if it was just for a few days!



This is us on our way out on Friday night! 

Once we go to Idaho we just hung out with my family on Saturday morning and then Brian went to Beer Fest with his friends and I went shopping with my sisters and mom!

Then on Sunday we got up and went to church in the morning and then we had all my family and friends over for a BBQ! It was so fun to have all the people I love together in one place!

It was so sad to leave them but in the end I know we will see them again and have fun! I love my family sooo much and I love when Brian is with us too!
