Garner Family Trip 2022- California

 The Garner side doesn't always do a family reunion every year. All of the siblings are spread across the country and schedules can be hard to work around. We felt so lucky that we had almost everyone on this trip to CA.  

One of my favorite memories was us singing along to Miles playing the ukulele while we drove down.  Having older kids is such a fun adventure!  We got to Ross and Amandas to spend the night in preparation for our drive to our camping site. The next morning, our van wouldn't start. We sent Lindy on along with an extra seat in Ross and Amanda's car, but the rest of us had to spend the majority of the behind at Ross and Amandas while our car was in the shop, which was kind of a bummer, but it could have been a lot worse!

We made it to our campsite that night. The next day, we hit up the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Outings like this are worth it, but always stress me out a bit.  crowded spaces, kids...etc. We also managed to hit up 2 different beaches on this trip and the Redwood Forest! The kids thought it was cool that they could all walk inside a tree! We really know how to maximize our time! It was so magical and I'm so grateful we get to help create these memories for our kids!
