california dreamin'

okie dokie :)

i'm back in the swing of things and ready to record my adventures...

my family and i got back a week ago from LA in california in celebration of Eric and Kiersten's Wedding in the LA Temple.

It was a great time, everybody was there (the whole family) Blake, Lindsay and little Garrett; Kimberly and David; Eric and Kiersten; Mom, Dad, and Neil, and of coarse me.

To start of our families california adventure we all went to disneyland that wednesday:

It was a wonderful time and fun place to be with all of us together... we enjoyed rides such as: indiana jones, piarates of the carribean, it's a small world, buzz lightner, and so many more

The adventures continued onto thursday where everyone, except for Eric and Kiersten, journeyed into the Getty Villa where we saw beautiful gardens and ancient artifacts.

Finally, heading off to hollywood shortly after.....

we were just so happen in hollywood on the day that Micheal Jackson died, infact, that is where we heard the news. about a half an hour after we left hollywood is when news groups came and many fans gathered around his star.

finally, ending that day at the hotel's pool.

Friday, June 26th comes and we had a family bbq in kiersten's parent's backyard bringing the two families together in celebration of Eric and Kiersten.

complete with a pinata'

Finally, Saturday June 27th, Eric and Kiersten are married in the California LA Temple.

It's so exciting to have Kiersten in our family and i'm so happy for my brother Eric and the blessing they will receive in there future together.

Since i am not yet able to enter the Temple i got the opportunity to babysit my two year old nephew, Garrett and my little brother Neil.. ....

Though Garrett was upset when his parents left him with his aunt brittany and uncle neil, he soon became the happy toddler he is..enjoying walks around the Temple, hopping, sneaking in bags and smelling the flowers we enjoyed ourselves very much...

Now our family is still growing.....
