Ben’s First Thanksgiving!
December 8th, 2009
What a trip!!! Ben’s first Thanksgiving was an adventure of a lot of ‘first time stuff’ for him.
- First plane ride to visit family in SoCal– very exciting!!!
- First time staying at G-ma & G-pa’s house– thank you very much for turning your casa into ‘Ben Camp West’. Loved & appreciated that!!!
- First beach adventure– including dipping toes into the Pacific Ocean & taking a stroll along the Seal Beach Pier.
- First time meeting his great Aunt Mary!
- First time meeting his great Uncle Bob!
- First time meeting his Uncle Rick!
- First time cruising around the Irvine Spectrum. Loved playing in the turtle fountains with Aunt Janet!
- First time going to the Long Beach Aquarium. Awesome family outing!
- First SoCal 81 degree Thanksgiving Day! Can’t believe we were running the air conditioner!
- And… on the plane ride home Ben decided it was time to start cutting two teeth!
I know Ben really won’t have any memories of his first Thanksgiving, but I’ll be sure to dig out all of the pics of all of the BIG FUN we had! Thank you SoCal friends & fam for such an awesome visit! :)
Now, sit back and enjoy the SoCal Thanksgiving Trip ’09 slideshow…

Loved taking part in a bunch of firsts. Nice slide set – really captured what we did. Ben was such a good traveler. Even with cutting his first 2 teeth.
I miss him already…Oh, and I miss you and Jeff too! Those beach pics turned out pretty darn terrific! Really shows how much fun we were having helping ben explore his first beach. XOXO
