A Trip to San Diego for Alexis to see family

Posted Apr 12, 2023
We decided to use the trip one simple wish gave us to go see Ariels family in San Diego. We have the date and decided to take a plane and have all details for that. Do you know how osw is going to want to go about paying for everything? We won't need a hotel so it'll just be the plane tickets, meals, and car rental we'd need help with.

Alexis is 27 years old and lives in CO

Alexis is dedicated to improving her life circumstances. After aging out of foster care she moved out of state for a fresh start. She is building a better life for herself, working and recently re-enrolled in college. Her dream is to start a nonprofit helping other kids who aged out of foster care with the challenges they face to reach their goals.

Nikki sent an update on the wish for Alexis.

"From Alexis: Dear OSW, I just wanted to reach out and let you know how our trip went. We had a great time sightseeing all the beaches and shopping in neat local shops. The food, especially the seafood, was delightful. Though nothing beats the quality time we got to spend with Ariel's family. I'm truly blessed to be marrying into such a wonderful family. They're so loving and accepting, I felt so much at home. After seeing the city and meeting those lovely people, we have started planning our move there! Thank you so much for making it possible to have such a wonderful experience in San Diego. We truly appreciate everything you have done for us. "
