CAL-i-FOR-nia

Well last week we were in Cali! It was so much fun. We left Layton Sunday morning and ventured on our 12 hour drive to San Francisco! It was so amazing. we stopped in Napa the first night and then went to the winery the next day and sampled wines from around the world. SOO YUMMY

Yeah right.
We sampled CHEESE from around the world. so good.

then we were off to San Fran the next day. WOW
so cool. we drove through Muir woods where the redwoods are and then across the golden gate bridge, down Lomard Street AKA the crooked road and to our condo to check in, (located right in downtown SF) and headed a couple blocks down to H&M my FAVORITE store on the planet earth!

Spent too much money!

Next day we went to fishermans warf to pier 39 so cool! We ate at Bubba Gumps. tastey tastey and so fun.
then off to see WICKED! I had never heard the music to this broadway show or even heard of the story line, so it was a great surprise. Amazing, you totally need to go see it.

Next day we headed down to Solvang which is a little dutch community in the middle of Cali. it was cute. we went to a little resteraunt called the Mustard Seed, and made frieds with the owner who was from jerusalem.
then we decided to go to the "market" next door for some food for the next morning. yeah not a market. it was a liquor store. and as we walked out there were 2 hispanics and a white man standing there with one hand in the pocket of their hoodie (and this is a zip up hoodie mind you) and could totally see the image of a gun. lets just say i walked as quickly as possible without seeming like i knew what they were up to.

we made it safely back to the car as you can tell.

then it was off to san diego the next morning. I should mention that the whole point of this trip was to go see my cousin Abby get married.

so we get there and have fun. I buy a new phone charger since the one i had was left in Napa. Then we do more shopping at H&M yay!

next day we go to the mall again, and go see UP and eat dinner at the california pizza kitchen.

mine was delicious. a bbq chicken pizza.
my parents on the other hand? didn't settle too well.

then the wedding! it was beautiful. so glad we made it.
Ok i will stop talking now and start posting pictures. ENJOY!
Oh and PS If you don't know what a picture is i'm sorry, something is screwed up and i can't see the pictures before i post them, it's just a bunch of numbers and words, so i don't know what the picture is, if i wanted to put a subtititle under it. but the one of me in the skirt is me at H&M. that skirt was all tulle, and cost like $70. if you have any other questions about the pictures just leave a comment and i will let you know :)

How fun! don't you just LOVE H&M! love love love, seriously could spend ALl day there, they really need to get on in utah, i'd be there like every possible moment. Solvang is so much fun, its so cute, Its acutally about 45 min south of where i was a nanny, san luis obispo, you probably drove right through it on your way from SF to solvang. a few times along the drive (depending which freeway/high way you took, then you would've been driving right along the ocean and gone through pismo beach? any of this sound familiar? ha ha. how fun what a good trip!
