ohh the beach!

crazy protesters...

i thought it was, a stroll on the beach.
not a segway adventure on the beach...

surfer dude...

the fam and i went to l.a this weekend. it was quite a trip. we went mostly to say goodbye and farewell to some family friends we've known for a while. they're moving back to new zealand[where we first met them] at the beginning of december so this was pretty much the only time we could see them between now and then. we left on friday and got to the temple in time to check in to the motels and for our parents to get ready and go to the stake temple session. while they were there, me and beth watched the movie nims island which was pretty good even tho i thought it wasnt going to be. anyways, we spent the night at the hotel and then left in the morning to go to the wihongis[our friends]. we spent a lot of time with them and we went to the beach which is where most of the pictures were taken. we saw some protesters and a lot of surfers and what not. the usual beach stuff. then we went back to their place and had dinner. then kendall and maddie[two of their girls] took me and beth to see madagascar 2 at the movies[which was also pretty good!] and it was a lot of fun. then we went to another family friends house to stay the night. in the morning we went to the wihongis church and then we went to their house for dinner, said our goodbyes[sadness] and then we came home. it was good seeing them and the beach and the temple and everything! good weekend!
