Day 5 (Sunday, May 11th)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grandma’s house.<\/p>\n

On Sunday morning we woke up bright and early and left for Long Beach. The drive was a little more than an hour in length. We were going to meet my Grandma (my mom’s mom) at her ward… 9am church.<\/p>\n

She teaches sunbeams, so we sent 2 1\/2 year old Bridget to her class. I think she was a little confused that the structure of class was different, but over all she did okay. Grandma had lots of snacks – I’m sure that helped.<\/p>\n

After church we went back to Grandma’s house. My Uncle Carl lives there with her. Neither of them had met Bridget before – I was pregnant with her last time we saw them. So it was pretty fun for her to get to know them. She warmed up really quickly.<\/p>\n

Just an example of how Bridget warmed up to them. This is her with Uncle Carl. <\/em>

One of my favorite early childhood toy memories were of these Tinker Toys. Grandma still had them – in their same old, original, packaging. I could help but play with them for a little while. Bridget even joined me for a few minutes.

After we got back to the hotel that night we hit the resort pool with Dave’s sister. It was a nice relaxing way to unwind from the past few days. Later that evening Dave’s parents arrived – we all had a barbecue before hitting the sack for the night.
