C-A-L-I-F-O-R-N-I-A

This trip was one of D's vacations from residency. What a better way to spend time than with familia in the sunshine?

We were able to go with Garrett for an endowment at the LA LDS TEMPLE. We are sure happy for him. He is going on a mission to New Mexico at the end of the month. 2 years of service ~ You GO Garrett!!


The Parentals:

Devin and I were able to spend some time with his dad. It was great! We walked and saw many ducks at a nearby venice-like-pond. QUACK !We also were able to go to a STAKE LUAU with my parents home stake. Bevington and Mikey came! As did the parentals and Devin's dad....good time luau-style.
