Beaches!!

My parents and I, and the girls, took a few days and drove down to California after Activity Day Camp. We left Monday, stopping in Utah at Kathryn's for a night. Mom and Dad went to the MTC for a Mongolian lesson. While the rest of us just rested and hung out. After lunch we left for Las Vegas...stopping in at Ada & Andrew's for the night. After a yummy breakfast that Andrew made for us, we stopped in on the strip...checking out a few casinos and M&M world. My dad wanted to "walk" down to Paris, which he said wasn't far, but we all developed blisters...it was so hot and it was only 10 in the morning!! After eating some french pasteries, we were back on the road for California!!

Driving with my dad=a lot of stops...not to just "stretch" his legs, but for him to get desserts...i.e. milk shakes, ice cream, candy, drinks, hard boiled eggs...

Once in California we hit the beaches on a few days...actually a lot of days!! Our Arizona cousins took us around. Our favorite beach was...o-no!! I don't remember the name!! Del Mar? We went to Newport Beach on the day of the main reunion. It was rockier and the waves were more intense. (Photos below). Many of our family were there to hang out. Kaylee and Kaitlyn did a lot of boogie boarding, except when Kaylee crashed onto the beach, tweaking her left hand pinkie. It was so swollen and painful :(
