Our California Adventure

Last weekend we had the great priviledge to attend our nephews baptism. We drove down Friday afternoon and made pretty good time down to Newport Beach. My Aunt was very gracious in letting her stay with her. Jacob had read online about the monster waves hitting Southern California and decided that he wanted to go check them out on Saturday morning... it was such a good idea that everyone else decided to come too! It took us over an hour to park but once we got lucky it was a short jont across the street to the beach.

We put Kira down on the sand and she immediatly asked to be picked right back up. She did NOT like the sand.


This is her trying to get the sand off her feet.
We were surprised that she didn't like the "Wawoo" she usually loves to swim but I think the noise from the waves was too much for her.

So we took a little walk down the boardwalk and came across a playground. Kira was all for that so she spent some time pretending to be a Moonkey



In the afternoon we drove out to Corona and got to see Dallin get baptised. It was a great experience and we are so proud of our "Dal-doo".

We then went to Dallins house for a combined birthday and baptism celebration. We didn't get pictures of that. Jacob was sick all weekend so he took a break from picture duty. But Kira loves all the new clothes she got!

Sunday was spent with my family and with some friends who made us a great dinner!
It looks like we will be down mid September so we'll see you all again soon!
