California: Cameron Came Home!

So way back in July we headed down the ABQ as the start of our trek to California for when Cameron would be coming home from his mission.

We went down to ABQ to well, help my mom get ready for when Cameron would be home but really it was just nice to get out of Provo as early as possible. We stayed in ABQ for a couple days.

Next we traveled down to south eastern Arizona where Stephen's grandparents live and spent the night with them so that we could visit with them and also see Stephen's sister, Ashley's, new little baby boy.



On our way to California from Arizona, we stopped in Barstow to get gas and my parents were not that far behind so we waited for them but they never caught up with us (they drive slow, like old people now).




Then finally we were off to see the beautiful sights of California, my home town. My parents rented a beach house in Cayucos, CA. By the way if you ever go to California for fun, I suggest going to this area because it is so beautiful!! We had to stay in a hotel until the beach house was available but it was fun camping out in a hotel for a couple of days.

Well the first night at the beach house we went to the beach which was only a couple blocks away. We walked along the shore while the sunset and all be honest, I REALLY MISSED THAT!!! Then we met up with a lot of my mom's friends that made us dinner and we were all over BBQ food by Tuesday.





We also longboarded around the boardwalk and the 'rock'. We toured a cool house called the Nitt Witt house. We played at the beach a lot! And boogie boarded all day for like two days straight!












Also we took family pictures and when I get those I'll definitely post them!!

I wish I had more to write about this trip but really it was just the best place to visit after not being there for so long. Well it is the best place to visit no matter what. I already miss it! (stayed tuned for more about this trip)
