our trip to cali: this and that

a few of the random activities that went on

a bonfire.
all the fire pits we usually use in the area were gone,
so we improvised and made a fire in one of the bbq grills on the beach.
illegal? 
most likely.
satisfied our bonfire wishes?
most definitely.

it was fun getting a second chance to take pictures and enjoy the place in nearly the same week

we visited a cousin of my mom's in the newport area and happened to be there on the sunday.
the ward we visited was more than half visitors, ha.
but everyone was so kind and it felt like automatic ward members.
sunday clothes always bring out the let's-take-family-pictures in you, right?
this was the first half of the week while the arizona family was there.

Ah so much fun! I'm obsessed with old town SD. Maxson looks adorable in every picture of course. And so does your mom's hair. What a bunch of cuties :)
