By Wednesday she was doing considerably better, able to sit up in her wheelchair and visit in the dining room. The staff were cooing over the girls, especially baby Bethany, and Grandma Geri was proud to show them off.
We spent the evening with Uncle Gary and Aunt Nanci and cousins Haden and Allen, and Xavier and Amber and Michayla dropped by to visit. Eva and Amanda were enamored with Bandit and Cleo as always, chasing them around the house and trying to hug and pet them.
On Thursday we packed up, checked out of our hotel and took the girls to see the beach. After one last visit with Grandma, we started back to LA. We stopped in Orange County to visit my Aunt Gayle, Uncle Mark and cousin Paige, who treated us to dinner. The girls enjoyed playing with their dogs and they enjoyed meeting Bethany for the first time.
All too soon we had to get back on the road to LAX. Our flight left at 9:30pm and poor exhausted Amanda had a meltdown during take-off that turned us into the dreaded family that nobody wants to fly with. Thankfully she fell asleep soon afterward, and the rest of the flight home was peaceful.
