Spring Break 2013

My family has not been having a great year. It seems like just one thing after another piles up and they all add up to a crappy time. So it was with some apprehension but mostly excitement that Hondo and I took a vacation last week to Los Angeles. This was technically our 2 year anniversary celebration but we had to wait a month for my younger sister Kelli to be on Spring Break so she could come watch Mo while we were gone.

I was going to write this all out like a journal entry but I'm already boring myself. So I will just post pictures and that'll be the update.

First of all, I have the cutest child ever. 

Second, we had to get rid of our car Derek Zoolander. He served us well for 5 years. RIP my friend.

On Hollywood Blvd/Walk of Fame. Day 1 in LA. Highlights were Ripley's Believe it or Not and seeing Beauty and the Beast. Other than that, it felt like Vegas.

We stopped by the Los Angeles temple too. Just to see the outside. It was very nice to get some peace and quiet after the grossness of Hollywood Blvd.

We drove up to the Griffith Observatory just in time for sunset. Pretty cool views of the surrounding city and the Hollywood sign.

Day 3 we went to Manhatten Beach and met up with some of my friends from high school. The weather was overcast and cold but we still got our feet wet in the ocean. I do wish it had been warmer, I love getting in the water.

After the beach we went to a Dodgers game. They were playing the Angels. We ate some awesome Dodger dogs in about 37 seconds. Totally worth it.

Day 4, last day. We spent the majority of the day at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. It was very cool but so much to see. A bit overwhelming. By the time we walked through 3 buildings we were ready to go home and see our girl.

One more for good measure.  We got home late Saturday night so this was Easter Sunday morning. Mo is looking at her Easter basket but was afraid to come near until I told her it was okay to have a piece of the candy. Then she was all about it. Such a good baby.

That's it and that's all.
