Leaving on a Jet Plane...



Bella had her first plane ride last week! We flew to El Paso to visit grandparents, Aunt Amy & great-grandparents. She did ok on the plane, but it definitely is not her favorite mode of transportation. Warning: this blog is going to be long and picture-heavy, so set some time aside!

We got to El Paso on Thursday afternoon. After lunch with Mimi & Aunt Amy, we went to visit Zayde at work. He was able to show Bella off to all of his co-workers. We also went to Al Varela's so that Mimi could show Bella off to her friends. We then went to see Uncle Brent and cousins Megan & Jacob. Bella also got to meet Tia Sofi! That night, we all (Mimi, Zayde, Amy & Paddy) went to dinner at our favorite Greek resturant to visit "our friend". They had a very scary high chair that basically consisted of an old carseat on a chair, but Bella LOVED it. She was having so much fun.

On Friday, Nana came over for a visit. We then had lunch with Zayde and then went to visit Papa and Julia (Julia helped raise me!). We also went over to see Nonnie & Poppy. Bella is completely fascinated by Poppy. We had dinner that night with Nonnie & Poppy.

On Saturday, we went to a fun birthday party and then lunch at Avila's. That afternoon we just hung out until dinner at Nana & Papa's.

Sunday, Mimi & Zayde took care of Bella for the day while Amy & I spent some time together. That afternoon, we went and spent some more time with the great-grandparents. We had dinner that night at home with the family. Bella spent a lot of time playing with Zayde and trying to bite his nose off.

We left to go back to Dallas on Monday. We had a great time and will miss everyone in El Paso!

Love,
The Singleton Family
