A few weekends ago we made our
way to California for a wedding. If you haven't seen the video of the trip youcan watch it here.
I love
flying out to California because you travel through time and reap the benefit
of 3 extra hours. After grabbing our rental car (free upgrade haaay, under 25
surcharge boo), we made our way to the hotel. Jared went in to check us in
and – major gaff – I had booked the wrong days!! I had unknowingly booked the
hotel for July instead of August and we were homeless in California! I
downloaded the HotelTonight app and found a hotel less then 2 miles away for a
great price. Avatar Hotel was a modern video game themed place. It was such a
relief, especially when we realized that right next door was…..
The mothership. OK so we say we
went to California to see Kevin Newton get married, but really we went because
we are drawn to In N Out Burger like a moth to a flame. Always coordinate your
lipstick and your condiments. After ingesting a burger brunch that took up ¾ of
my daily calorie allotment in LoseIt app, we set out on a 3 hour ride through
central CA to Fresno. We listened to a great episode of This American Life, the
new Civil Wars Album and took in the Grapes of Wrath scenery. It was a great
little drive. Living flat on the ground my whole life, I get a huge kick out of
meandering up and down hills and watching cows gracefully graze on what looks
to me as a mountain edge.
When we got to Hanford, where the
Buckleys live, we got to work folding paper flowers and counseling Kevin Newton
on married life. The next two days were so much fun. Kevin and Jessica are so
in love and their reception was the best. They had a fresh churro stand!! A CHURRO STAND!! These were like Disney level churro's a kid you not. And Jessica smashed a piniata. What a babe that Jessica btw, Kevin Newton you officially have a trophy wife ;).
I also made the most darling new
friend. Kevin Newton’s nephew was apparently quite smitten with me, and I spent
the majority of the reception cutting a rug on the dance floor with him and
playing thumb war. We made some really good memories on this trip. I'm so grateful we were able to fly out there.
Babe alert! BABE ALEERRRTTT!!!
Hold the phone....I interrupt this stream of pictures to bring you this blue eyed angel. I am a lucky woman. Sorry y'all, go back to your business.
