girls weekend to la jolla.
 |
| at the beginning of may, my friends and i went down to san diego for a weekend. |
 |
| my aunt was kind enough to let us stay at her gorgeous beach house in la jolla. this is the view from the front porch. not too shabby. |

| that first night we dropped our stuff of at the house and then drove over to old town for legit mexican food and a little mormon battalion-ing. we were very serious about finding the best gold nuggets to bring home to our kids. |
 |
| the next morning we drove over to la jolla shores and lay. in. the. sun. (i have consulted with my grandma {the grammar queen} and she has assured me that is the correct way to phrase that sentence. i mean without the period situaion, of course) |
 |
| when our little white skins couldnt take the pure baking anymore we decided to paddle board. |
 |
| i had never SUP before (stand up paddle boarding, to all you losers). it was very fun. |
 |
| basically professionals. |
 |
| after a long day at the beach we went back to the house to clean up and then headed over to fashion valley for shopping, sees candy and a complicated dinner. (ordering dinner off of ipads isnt very slick with six picky ladies) |
 |
| on saturday morning we drove up to disneyland! |
 |
| it was only mildly awkward going on all the kiddie rides without any of our kiddies!!! :) anything is fun with this nut! |
 |
| megan and i spent the majority of the day together, walking around and eating. we are both expecting and couldnt ride any of the legit rides. at one point we even went to catch a movie in downtown disney to escape the heat. ha! |
 |
| at night, we watched the light shows. i have never stayed late enough to watch these (even though i grew up in san diego and probably visited disneyland 874957398475 times in my childhood) but i am so glad we did this time. it was very entertaining. |
 |
| my favorite photo op at disneyland. |
 |
| the tram back to our car. with our caramel apple, light up rings and a-hot-day-at-disneyland-glow. |
 |
| on our last day in san diego, we woke up and drove over to la jolla cove to see the seals. |
 |
| then we went over to this little shop where you can pay four dollars and go down a staircase at the back of the shop that leads down to a cave under the cliffs. |
 |
| the cave. while we were down there we saw a guy swim by. he got stuck in the current and repeatedly got knocked up against that huge boulder on the left. it was very scary. he was screaming "help" (until he pretty much got knocked out and went under completely) but we couldnt get to him. after about 5 minutes the lifeguards came and rescued him. it was quite the ordeal. |
 |
| a very fun weekend. i know that i am blessed to have such wonderful friends in my life. (missed the heck out of you, hanna) |
