Finally I am posting about my trip to California! My mom came up to Utah to bring Ben to EFY, so Brooklyn and I decided to drive back with them and spend some time with the fam! A week and a half was a long time for us to be away from Brian, I was definitely excited to get back by the end, but it was a much needed family trip. Its crazy how much I miss my family when I don't see them... I guess that must mean I love them, right? So anyways, we had a blast hanging out in California. We spent lots of time swimming, playing and just visiting. We went to the beach and to In-n-Out. Brooklyn especially loved playing with her cousins! They were all so cute together. Anyways, here are a few pics of the trip!

more.

Brooklyn and Clara played together alot! Well,

cute little sounds while occasionally looking at each

other as playing.

fun running away from the waves and digging

holes in the sand.
