Fun Memories from 2011:
- On our way down, there was a huge fire on the interstate. We had to take a two hour detour up the mountains. If we weren't in a hurry to get to the shoreline, I think I would have enjoyed it more.
- Most of the week when I wasn't in the water, I read Mockingjay. I really don't read for leisure, but I sure did enjoy it.
- The only part of me that got sunburnt was my face. And it was BRIGHT red.
- We went downtown San Diego to visit the Mormon Battalion Site. While watching the presentation, the lights go down and the wall turned purple to portray nighttime. Trace started frantically whispering (loudly), "Jessica, Jessica, where are you? It's your favorite color!"
- I have always wanted to try a restaurant that was unique to San Diego. This year, Steve and I ate at a taco shop with REAL coca-cola.
- At the baseball game, we told Trace if he would dance, he would get on the big screen. Sadly, Trace was wearing red, which was too close to the opponents color, orange. But Trace danced his little heart out.
- The last night we were at the beach, there was a MAJOR power outage. It was interesting to cook dinner, take showers, and pack without electricity. Thankfully, it came back on after we all went to bed.
- We added one more person to the clan this year, Nixon! He was so fun to hold and watch.
All my post have been about a month late, but I'm getting further behind everytime. At the end of August, Steve and I try to make it up to Idaho for grain harvest. This year was short and sweet, but we had lots of fun.
