Hogle Zoo

Me and my sister (have I mentioned I love love love that she is living back in Utah :) I really missed her) took these cute kids to the zoo last week.  A lot was under construction which stinks but I can't wait to see what its like in 2014.  The kids loved all the animals.  The new sea lions and seals were a favorite they were so active, the tiger was really active too.  It was a fun day, thanks Kristy for coming along.

Poor Kitty Cat

                                                                         Twinners

 If you can't tell she loves my Moms cat!  I actually felt bad for the creature that I had to let it go and she had to go inside for a bit.  I am surprised it never scratched her.

Cultural Celebration

Saturday night my sister gave me and my Mom her tickets to the celebration.  She even scored us some amazing seats.  It was so cool to watch the youth did an amazing job.  Elder L. Tom Perry was there and I got to see him up close and personal.  Love that man.  Thank you so much Vanessa for the seats and Kristy for giving up your ticket :)

California!!

 We enjoyed a wonderful weekend in California, with Jeremy's family.  We left bright and early at 3 a.m. it was great cause the girls slept for the first 4 hours of the trip thank heavens.  Monday we went to Sea World (sd card bit the bullet and all our pictures were ruined :())  Tuesday was a good day at the beach.  I love the beach!  Something about all the sand, the huge waves and the sun beating down on ya. BLISS!!  Wednesday we were lucky enough for Nana and Papa to watch all the kids and the siblings and spouses did a session in the San Diego Temple!  Holy cow that temple is beautiful!!!!  Thursday we were back at Sea World and got smart and had McKell wear her running shoes so she was 42" and could ride all the rides.  She is a thrill seeker!  Friday was another swimming/beach day.  Said goodbye to the Andersons and Shy's.  Saturday another day at the beach and lunch at Rubys diner Delish

Last day we got a new card so we actually got some pictures.  Me and McKell went looking for some souvenirs, and crazy enough they didn't really have any tourist shops in Oceanside CA!  We had a great time though and the ride home was awful hee hee  Thanks again Nana and Papa for sharing your week with us.
