Trip to California...

We're back from a quick trip to California. We zipped down on Wednesday for my niece, Kira's, wedding. We went through the Newport Beach Temple with her on Thursday, she was sealed to Jeff Fisher on Friday in the San Diego Temple, with a reception on Friday night. We swam at my sister, Debi's on Saturday morning, then jumped back in the car to return late that night. Stacy, Brooke, Shane and the babies went to Disneyland on Thursday and had a really good (hot) time. Austin was old enough to ride the Matterhorn and was heard to say "There's a monster in there". She was a little scared by the 3D movie, "Honey, I shrunk the Audience" too. Her favorite was the "Gumbo" (Dumbo) ride. Amanda went and hung out with Jon. (We heard they had a really good time too).The temple sealing was beautiful, the reception was gorgeous too, as was Kira, with really yummy food. Speaking of food, we stopped at the Wynn Buffet in Vegas for quite the meal. Shane ate 8 creme brulees. They were quite tiny, but delicious. Shane knew the secret of arriving at 3:15 to pay the lunch price, but they put out the dinner food at 3:30 (crab legs/creme brulee). We planned our departure time accordingly and got there just in time! The restroom sinks were also quite impressive, as you can see from my picture.We are a little tired today, but as usual, it is so nice to sleep in our own beds again! Stacy and I both got subs for our Sunday School classes, so we are trying to figure out how to look "not home" when everyone walks/drives by our house (2 doors down from the church) on their way to church today, then show up to Sacrament Meeting, seemingly just arrived in from out of town.
