My family came over from Phoenix for the 4th. It was so fun to give my mom and fam a tour of our house and to have our first official house guests. (When my dad came BACK 2 weeks ago with Mikey to help us move, they went more under the category of "help" than guests.)
We spent a ton of time in La Jolla at the beach, went to the Mormon Battalion Museum (so fun for the kids), had a big 4th of July dinner, then walked/got shuttled down to La Jolla cove where we layed on blankets and listened to the Maritime Band till the fireworks started. I loved it all. Mostly, I loved getting to spend time with my family and my siblings and getting to see them have fun in a place I love. Seeing Michael's smile after he stood up on his FIRST try at surfing was awesome. And Bex decorated one beautiful flag cake. P loved hanging with his cousins....especially Andrew.
Can't wait for you to visit again!
