Josh and I have been so lucky that we have had so much family over to visit Callen. About a month ago Stephen, Julie, Brooklynn, Chandler and Adaley came to meet their nephew/cousin. We had an amazing time together. A week and half after the visit, Stephen and Julie came back out for a work trip in San Francisco. We were delighted to have more time with my bro and sis in-law! During our time we went to Carmel and checked out the town and took in a whale watching tour in Monterey.
Our first stop was Carmel by-the-sea, which is a colorful town with cute little shops, cafes, and white sandy beaches.

| This boy LOVES his aunt and uncle! We had a little photo shoot at the restaurant in Carmel. |
 |
| Frameable! I love Callen's expression. |
The next day we went whale watching with the Wesling's. We couldn't wait to see what this trip had in store. First out of the harbor, we saw loads of sea lions, seals, and otters basking in the sun or playfully splashing in the water. I never knew how friendly and entertaining these animals could be.

| A school of dolphins swam by. |

| A humpback diving down for food. I just love how his tail flips up. |
 |
| We were really close to the whales. Our guide said that their sonar showed the whales swimming directly under our boat. |
 |
| We also spotted a blue whale towards the end of our trip. It is amazing to know that we saw a portion of the biggest animal. |
We had such an amazing time with my bro and Julie! It is times like these that I feel happy to be back in California and closer to family!
