9 Day Adventure in Shasta

Alex, we got back late last night from our 9 day trip to Shasta, where you did exceptionally well for the longest trip you've taken so far. Mommy and Daddy can't believe how great you did, despite some teething pain here and there. You met soooo many people, how will you ever remember all their names? You of course loved seeing Oma and Opa, Uncle Rob, Aunt Shelly, cousins Jonathan and Justin, and Uncle Don. You enjoyed meeting new buddies Carolyn, Jenn, Estee and Jerry w/ their little ones, and soooo many new friends. We'll post some pics soon!
