The photo below is what the download will look like.

 

The rainbow & sky last night was amazing. I couldn't resist running up the hill to get a shot of the rainbow next to the Oquirrh Mountain LDS temple.

Memorial Day

This is the first memorial day without my sister. I'm missing her lots today!

 

Camping in San Diego

We headed down to San Diego for a few days with my mom, my sister, and her family.

We've never been camping on the beach and thought it would be fun to try. It was fun. The campground we stayed at had some nice swimming pools and hot tubs. It also had a playground. Plus it was right on the San Diego Bay.

There was a wild bachelor party with lots of drunk guys in attendance that happened 2 feet from our tent. It went on until 3:30 AM Sunday morning. then we listened to what seemed like a synchronized chorus of loud snoring the rest of the night. Other than that incident, I'd highly recommend camping on the beach.

 

During the day, the girls had fun exploring Balboa park with their cousins.

Old Town San Diego was one of my favorite spots. I just loved these stairs.

We played at the beach.

Lily loved the street performers.

 

It ended up being a really fun road trip!

Happy Mother's Day

Lily: Mom, I'm going to make you a dress and a sweater for Mother's day.
Me: Fun! What are you going to make them out of?
Lily: Plastic sacks. But... uhhh... you might want to wear clothes under them, because they might kick you out of church if you don't.

So, for obvious reasons I won't be sharing a picture of the dress my youngest daughter made for me, but here's a picture of the hot pad my oldest daughter made for me. 

Happy Mother's Day!
