A week of visitors!

This last week my brother, Luke, and his wife & daughter came to visit! So since the weather was unusually warm we spent the day swimming & BBQ-ing!











Then, we spent the next day at Sea World!


































We snapped this shot while we were waiting for Katelyn to go on a sesame street ride & seconds after we got a shower of bird poop! yuck!


After visiting with my brother my good friend Carrie and her man Grant came to see us! We showed them our favorite beach, Crescent Bay, and it turned out to be the perfect day for beachn'

So our Totally Awesome Roadtrip started at Pismo beach. We walked out on the peir & admired the beautiful beaches! We don't have pictures of it, but we camped the first night at Avila Hotsprings where Taylor soaked in the hot springs hot tub & I swam in the pool!

Then we headed up the coast on
Highway 1 making stops to see the seals& other cool things!



















The second night we camped at an awesome campground that was right on the green cliffs overlooking the ocean! We hicked down to the rocky beach & I think this is where Taylor got poison oak!

























The next day we kept going north & did the 17 mile drive. The big rock behind me is covered with seals that are making allsorts of crazy noise!

Then we headed up to a redwood campgroud for the night & we felt so ity bity next to those giant trees!























San Fransisco

We ventured through the city driving down the Crooked road, checking out Fisheman's Warf, & getting sundaes at Ghiradelli's Square!




































Next we went to the mountains to spend the night in Yosemite & it was a cold one! That morning Taylor discovered the poison oak so we had to cut things short so we could get home before it got too bad :( We still got to explore the beautiful park though!







































So we headed home & we drove past tons of Orange Groves that smell absolutely Divine right now! We had to stop ourself from sniffing cause we cept getting dizzy!
