Its been a while since I posted. Sorry for the delay. Here's a recap of our amazing weekend. This was Derek's first road trip to Delano. On Friday, we made a stop at our good friends' Elbert and Rina's place before we headed to Delano. They recently had a little girl named Hailey, a month later after Derek was born. Elbert & Rina's family moved from Utah about a month ago and will be in San Pedro (Los Angeles) for a while. Besides Nora, they are the only really close friends that we have that are parents. They currently have 3 kids, Elena, Kaylin & Hailey. There were a couple of firsts. Derek was the first baby boy that Rina has ever held in her arms. Also, met a baby girl for the first time. He also saw live fishies for the first time.
After hanging out and dinner, we headed up to Delano for Erica's 10-year high school reunion. We arrived in Erica's home town for Derek's first trip to Delano. He did really well and only cried when he was hungry. His grandparents were extremely happy to see him. Before the reunion, we hung out at home and chilled. Derek was having a fun time with his lolo & lola, playing in the baby gym and smiling and talking away. Right before the reunion, we picked up some food from Elmer's, a fast food joint exclusively in Delano. Afterwards, Nora met us at home and then we headed to the reunion.
Nora, Erica and I headed to Azul's Bar in Bakersfield for the Reunion. It was great to see Erica catch up with some people that she hasn't seen since high school. I have to say that this reunion was way better than my high school reunion. Great times!
On Sunday, we headed back to San Diego for the Colts v. Chargers game. Nora is a huge Colts fan and we are huge Charger fans. This has been some kind of tradition. We went to the Chargers & Colts game last year too. Derek's first ever Charger game fun for everybody, including Derek. From the very beginning of the game with the fireworks to the very end, Derek enjoyed every moment. He got all of these "your baby is so cute" comments. We decked him out in Charger Gear and he made a great impression. Derek was very observant of the lights, the noise and the game. The only time he cried was when he needed his diaper changed. Other than that, the game was another successful outing. Too bad the Chargers lost. Oh well.
