Bummin at the Beach

Well, for your information, we are both still alive! Hahahah it feels like its been forevger since we have updated our blog, but we have just been too busy playing our hearts out! We got to go to San Diego for a few days and go to a Padres game, and then we were off to the beach in Oceanside for a week!

Ok, I am a person that doesn't vacation very often, a vacation to me is a trip to the grocery store... maybe not quite, but still, you get the picture. My family has gone on some fun trips (my favorite being Florida 2006), but that was the last 'real' vacation I have had, besides my wonderful honeymoon to Cancun! So I was way too excited about going to spend a week in California. I lived there when I was little, and I remember we had an orange tree in our backyard that grew nothing but sour sour sour oranges. I also vaguely remember going to the day care at the gym while my mom worked out and running into a brick wall and then having blood gush all over the floor and have my mom take me to get stitches. I also remember getting the hives because I was so scared when Carmel mountain flooded.... but some of my most favorite memories are with our old friends the Nielsons.

I forgot how much I love California... seriously, the weather is heavenly, the highest it got was probably 85, and there was a slight breeze! I think the waves are so soothing, and my new favorite thing is falling asleep listening to them... I'm kind of going through withdrawals!

Ok, so its story time.... I have a pretty awesome story.... So Dixon and Ky got together and decided to have Ky fly to Cali to join us.... I had NO clue! On Monday I was out on the beach readin my book and I look over, and there is Ky.... I seriously was so excited, we video taped my reaction, and its hillarious, I think it should be on America's funniest home Videos, but thats just me! I have the best husband, and no, I'm not just figuring that out! He comes up with all sorts of suprises and always knows how to bring a smile to my face! What a fun suprise, I will never be able to top that!

Me and Ky went and Gram went and saw Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants... Iwas disappointed, I loved the first one, but this one was cheesy! Me and Ky had a good time listening to the black lady in front of us say 'heck' no every five minutes, except the 'heck' was actually another word.

I think my most favorite spot though was Lajolla, its absolutely gorgeous. It was so fun to spend time with the Leavitts and get to know them better, I feel so blessed to be part of their family!

I suprised Dixon by being able to body board and play paddle ball with coordination, and I finished five books.... I don't remember the last time I have read that much! I won the contest of "best tan" and after tomorrow (I get my hair cut and colored) I will truly look like a beach babe! Its tough comin home knowing that school starts up in two weeks and high stress is on its way, but it was sure nice to just relax! (Thanks Chase and Beebs for getting us a good spot on the beach everyday)!

O and I almost forgot, guess who is the new ward Choir Director... me.... I think I will be released soon when they figure out I can't lead or sing... hmmmm.

PS I will post beach pictures soon!
