CALIFORNIA, the beautiful

This past weekend me and my teammates were able to take on last trip together as a soccer squad. Our coach took us all in a 15 passenger van (the Plig Rig) and we rolled on dodwn to California, just like back in the 7th grade. We were about to relive one of the greatest trips known to man. It was sucha  fun time. Bittersweet though. We drove down on a friday night, went to Hunington beach saturday, spent the day there, watched a bunch of SMOKIN HOT life guards run around with no shirts on. then went shopping that night at a really cool outdoor mall. Sunday we went to a ward just close to where we were staying, which happened to be sharing a parking lot with the temple! SO BEAUTIFUL. The ward was so fun, it was fast sunday and a couple of us bore our testimonies. Then coach Mckenna gave us his final speech. It was incredible. He is such an amazing man and i will never forget the lessons he has taught me not only in soccer but in life as well. We walked around the temple for a little while, then headed over to some tide pools in Laguna. Coolest place ive been, there were starfish everywhere!! It was so much fun, then we happened to find our way to a cool secluded beach just around some cliff. It was so pretty, i could've stayed there forever. Seriously, i am so jealous of the people that live in those cute little houses overlooking the ocean like that. Lucky son of a guns. Someday...We had to head out after that, but our few short days were well spent! The trip was a blast, and we had so much fun with eachother. We laughed a whole lot. And took a lot of pictures. I love my soccer sisters and all the memories we have shared together!
