This last weekend me and my friend Michelle Kerksiek went to
California to surprise a friend on her wedding day. We stayed at gma Valora’s
and had a fun fast trip to Cali. We left Friday after classes and drove right
to grandmas house. I was informed that live oak is a scary road for new people
in the dark. Saturday we woke up and grandma made us waffles then we went to
the temple to do baptisms for the dead. The San Diego temple looks so huge from
the outside but inside they just had one toilet, 4 changing stalls and one
shower!! It was crazy how small it was in the changing room. It was also Spanish
day at the temple so we did all the work in Spanish that was fun. After the
temple we went back to grandmas to shower and eat lunch then we went to the
beach then to Acasia’s wedding. She was so surprised to see us there, she was
sooo happy we came to see her. It was fun to see friends who moved away at the
wedding. Some of our friends were going to drive back to Vegas that night so I
told them they were more than welcome to stay with us at case de grandma. They couldn’t
decide if they wanted to so I told them to call if they wanted to stay and we
would meet them out at the freeway. They called us and said they decided to
stay and they were like well we have a GPS we’ll be able to find it if you just
give us the address. I was like umm I’ll meet you you’ll miss the road. After we
met them and I drove them back to grandmas and a very very slow speed (pretty
sure the two cars behind them were really mad) they were like we never would
have found this house, and that road is crazy you were driving so fast on it!!
Michelle started laughing and saying how slow I was driving when they were
following .
Sunday we went to a random 9 am sacrament meeting and there
was a missionaries homecoming that day and after sacrament the ward members
though we were there to welcome her home and we were like umm, actually we just
randomly choose to come here, we’re actually on vacation this weekend. Oh the
church had like an outside part to their nursery!! It was awesome they had
those like little tykes cars. After church we hung out with gma and explored
the yard and then we drove home.
The drive home was crazy and boring. Crazy because a semi
tried to occupy the same lane as the car next to us so the car next to us tried
to occupy our lane, luckily there was no one next to us so we could move over.
I thought Michelle was going to end up in my lap she tried to jump out of the
way of the car, I’m pretty sure she would have succeeded if she didn’t have a seatbelt
on.
We had a great short visit. Thanks Grandma!!
