We had a free weekend and we decided to make a surprise trip down to Yuba City, CA to visit Mandy, AJ, Garren, Linda, and Dennis. We thought we could make it down there in a solid eight hours, and then sneak into the house without a sound. Unfortunately, Avery and Aspen, their two yellow labs, heard us and could smell Jesi. Our surprise was blown, but at least we were there for Garren's birthday on Saturday! We made the trek in our new car, which was really nice for Jesi in the back. However, the following day, we offered to pick up the food for the party, which was Mexican from a neighboring town. When we arrived back into Yuba City at another restaurant to pick up some salsa, we noticed the disaster we had in the back seat. Not only had the container of beans opened, but it has spilt EVERY WHERE! Why would packaging of refined beans be safe with only tin foil as a "lid". Needless to say, we had quite the mess to clean up once back to the house. We survived and thank goodness there is not a single sign of beans in the car. We got everything set up and people began to arrive. It was adorable to see Garren with the other kiddos. Here are some pictures that highlight the day.
