Fabulous Las Vegas!

So This week was so much Fun my Mom, Alisa Janet and I decided to get away, it was relaxing and rejuvenating. We spent time at the pool, walked around on Fremont street and the Strip. We had Lobster dinner and shopped at the Forum stores in Caesar's Palace. We stayed at the Venetian and saw the Phantom of the Opera. I saw the whole production in London a few years back, and this was the mainly the highlights, This one was SO good! The Costumes were incredible and the theater was almost as incredible as Her Majesty's Royal Theater. Good Job Vegas! We also went to a Girls' dream place. It was the Beauty-Hair-Spa-Make-up show! This was my first year going and I loved every bit of it! This was a nice relaxing fun Girlie weekend :)

Revisiting San Antonio/Austin

Okay so I am a little late in posting, My Birthday was last week! I still feel like I should be 20 just getting ready for my mission. Instead, I got the best Birthday Present ever from my Mom, and we went back. Now those who know me know that I have been trying to get back there for like since I left! I was even supposed to meet some old friends back there but I never could make it...So I opened a present and in it was two tickets! So we went for the weekend We had breakfast on the River Walk then went on the Gondolas, Alamo, and the temple in San Antonio, then we went up to San Marcos because of the rain and found the Best Shopping Outlets ever. There is like everything from Waterford to Neiman Marcas, Gucci, LACOSTE, and so much more! Then after the rain we went up to Austin saw the Capital, then had dinner on the Austin River. On Sunday We went to Church in Barton Creek and saw Kazuyoshi Hayashi, Cindy is Healing(Keep her in your prayers) Then it was time to come back home :( I was really sad to go, but I know that I will visit again!

Washington DC

Wow! So this past week has been full of crazy adventures!! My Mom and I went to Washington DC, and had a BLAST! We saw the white house and all the Monuments! So the first thing, we arrive in the morning and it is totally foggy, can't see 10 feet ahead of you, and Mom and I are like okay where are all the Monuments. So we ask a Police officer who kept telling us that they were right in front of us, so he tells us to go out to Mount Vernon and come back in about 2hrs so we head out there and have a terrific time, come back, and YUP the Monuments were right in front of us, bot did we feel like Blondes, the officer even gave us his number and told us to call him if we got lost! So the rest of the Trip is SO AMAZING besides the weather (98 with 60% humidity!)! We saw almost all the sights and we even made it to the Washington DC Temple! So ur trip is done, or so we thought, we had a horrendous time trying to get back because of the tornado's there were 6! The night we got out, we flew through a storm, our pilot was Amazing! And we had to spend the night in Denver, and flew to Salt Lake to St. George! It was an experience to remember, but it really reaffirmed my belief in America and what she stands for! Here are a few pics from the trip

Huntington Beach

"Our Favorite Houses in Huntington Beach, Huntington Beach Pier, The Surf Museum, LAX airport, The tiki we got at the Orange County Swap Meet, The La temple where Mom was married to my Dad."

So this weekend was a real learning experience! Mom wanted to go to the Orange County Swap Meet (A huge Flea Market) for the day. So we flew down to LAX and we had lots of fun, Mom Got a Tiki, he is so cute! Then we went down to our hometown Huntington Beach:) I miss it down there a lot, we stopped in at our old neighbors said hello then went down and walked on the Beach. We also went to the Surf Museum and saw some pretty cool stuff. It was pretty cool cause my Dad is a surfer and his friend Bob aka the Greek makes these surfboards that are legendary. We also took some pictures of some houses that we love and a Jacaranda tree, they only bloom at a certain time (right now) and the rest of the year they are green.
So we were going to only spend a day there (Saturday) and come back that night, however because of the car rental's shuttle bus, we missed our flight by five minutes...So we stayed that night and we drove down Rodeo Drive where all the AMAZING shopping is done by the Stars, so that was fun. We then got up really early and our flights were at different times, I stayed the whole day in the airport! That was fun.... It was a really relaxing weekend though, and I had fun hanging out with my Mom!!
