CA for Fall Break

For Fall Break (a week ago), I decided to go to CA to visit Tiersh, Josh, and Charlotte.  We mostly just hung out, shopped (a LOT), and met up with a few different friends/family members.  I loved being able to see Charlotte, and hopefully she remembers me a little bit.  To say I'm obsessed with her, would be an understatement.  

While Tiersha had some doctor appointments, I walked around with Charlotte at the Block, and she was obsessed with this bench and dog at Old Navy.

After Tiersha's doc appointments, we met up with Melissa & Brady at Downtown Disney.  

Shopping (she loves Minnie), and Charlotte trying on what we got her.

Sprinkles Ice Cream...YUM!

On Thursday, we drove up to LA to meet up with Nicole for lunch.  We decided to make a day of it, and walked around the Grove for a few hours.  Charlotte was a little tired on the way up...

Ready for the American Girl Doll Store

This store is absolutely incredible...SO many things to see!

At Chipotle with Nicole

After meeting up with Nicole, we met up with my dad's parents for dinner (sad we didn't get a pic!), and then hit up Rita's for dessert.  

I was planning on leaving Friday morning, but decided to stick around because Annie's volleyball team was in SD for a tournament.  It was fun to be the "sports" atmosphere again, and Annie was pretty surprised when she saw us (she didn't know we were coming).

Priesthood/Post Priesthood Session

During the Priesthood session, I got together with the girls, and we made an apple pie.  When the boys were done, we tried a place called "Backyard Tacos," and then ate the apple pie

Arizona Science Museum

On Friday, we went with Brad and Courtney to the AZ Science Museum.  From 5 to 9 it was free, and adults-only.  Afterwards, we got tres leches from Cafe Rio, and played "Just Dance."

Building an "earthquake-safe" building

Inside the planetarium (we didn't stay very long because it was LAME)

Relief Society General Conference

Last weekend was the RS General Conference, and we decided to make a night of it.  Malorie, Emily, Courtney, and I all decided to go to dinner beforehand (@ Sauce), and then head to the conference.  The conference was great, and they even had dessert afterwards for us.
