California

The trip to California was wonderful! We flew standby with Roman and were so lucky to get on both flights and be able to all sit together! I just kept feeding Roman to keep him from crying. On the way there, he ate three 6oz bottles and nursed! It's only a 3-1/2 hour flight! My boy can eat!! Once we got to Sacramento, we went straight to In and Out Burger! My absolute favorite!! Then we all went to the hotel to celebrate Bill's birthday. Grandma and Aunt Judith met us with a wonderful cake.

Roman met his Great Grandpa for the first time. Buddy is 95 years old. This was such a wonderful experience. Buddy was awake and happy to meet his great grandson. It brought tears to my eyes!

Four Generations of Franks men!

The next day we left early for Napa Valley. It's a Franks tradition to go to V Sattui Winery. After Matt and I did a wine tasting, we bought a bunch of different cheeses and breads and had a picnic. It was the most fabulous day! I loved every minute of it and Roman loved his piece of bread!
We left early Saturday morning. It was such a fast trip! Less than 48 hours! The pictures with Grandma and Grandpa mean so much to us. It was such a special time! Thanks Bill and Pam for everything!!
