When we finally arrived at Mel's house she was ready to entertain the kids while Piper, her pup, tried to figure out what the commotion was all about. J napped almost immediately self selecting Mel's bed, clearly feeling right at home, or at least making herself right at home. (Partly also avoiding the dog, which eventually she sort of warmed up to.) A did the same finding Mel's settee in her guest room, deciding it was her "princess bed", and then declaring that Mel was to sleep with her in that room. Mel obliged because she is a good friend!
We spent a relaxing afternoon with Mel's childhood friend Jess and her son, then eventually heading to Hermosa Beach for a La Playita dinner, which is a staple for every visit. The next day we visited with Safety Connie (Mel's Mom) and her three-legged dog before heading to the beach, despite the fog. J spent her time getting sand in very nook and cranny while A spent as long as she possibly could stand in the water.
A fav memory is when I told A to give Mel a few minutes to talk with her friend, A looked at me in all seriousness and said, "well, she's my friend too."
