Aunty Chriddy and Uncle Garrett get HITCHED!

This is long overdo... but time always finds a way to slip away from me!

In January, we hopped on an airplane and headed west. Destination: Los Angeles to celebrate Aunt Christine and Uncle Garrett! 
It was really great to be back in LA, the weather was perfect; it was so clear you could see all the snow covered mountains! We hit a lot of our favorite restaurants and found some new ones...
The best part of course was visiting with friends. Andrew, Kim and Olive were generous enough to open their home to us, and let me say this, Lula was beyond stoked! So much better than a stuffy hotel room. The Cahn house is like paradise to her... a playdough table, an art table, books and toys everywhere. Movies, popcorn, cupcakes, princess dresses... not to mention her pal Olive!  Lula was living it up! Thank you Cahns! And we will miss you Sunlight Place!!
One our favorite activities was catching the metro and heading to the science center, there were so many cool exhibits. In the short amount of time we were there, we saw a real baby chicken hatch and got up close and personal with the space ship Endeavour!
Not only did we get to visit with our old LA friends, since Chriddy was getting married, there were so many people we don't get to see very often... like Auntie Sarah from NYC and the Rabins who live on the Big Island! Phoenix I miss you so much!
 I hate that we see everyone so infrequently now, especially with kids because they change so much so quickly and unfortunately the week went by way too fast.

But I will say this... it ended in spectacular fashion...



Garrett and Christine's wedding in one word: EPIC!

In several words: beautiful, sentimental, classic, inspirational, funny... with great atmosphere, great food, great people, incredible desserts (noviello) and a dance party that was off the charts. Did I mention the entertainment? That speaks for itself, if you haven't seen the video prepared in honor of the groom, do yourself a favor and copy and paste this address...

I wish I had more pictures of the event itself, because it was truly beautiful, but I decided to go sans phone, camera AND Lula so I could fully enjoy the evening. Let me just say... I totally did! Congratulations Christine and Garrett! We wish you a lifetime of happiness, thank you so much for including us in your incredible day! We love you and miss you!
