California, like you never seen it before.

WARNING: This is a really long post. Side affects may include: headache, dizziness, nausea, blurry eyes, uncontrollable laughter, extreme jealously and foaming at the mouth. May take days to read. Do not read this is if you have heart problems, kidney disease, three eyes, and the black plague. If side affects last longer than two days, maybe we shouldn't be friends.

Last weekend we went to the wonderful and beautiful, state of California. We went to go to our good friend Hannah's wedding and of course we did some other really fun stuff.
Highlights of the trip as follows:

10. Apparently, Dane and Carter came in our room(around 3 a.m.) while me and Abe were sleeping. They woke up Abe, were talking ,laughing, slamming doors and both of them got in the bed with us and spooned. I slept through all of this and had no idea it even happened. what can i say? I'm a deep sleeper.

9.Going to Karla's ex-boyfriends house,while he was out of town, so she could get some stuff back.

8. The million and half bottles we saved to turn in for money. We would like to thank the following for helping to make this possible: Abe's parents, Karla, Abe's co-workers, the state of California, and last but not least of all, kirkland, Aquafina, and arrowhead water.

7.Abe's weird/creepy obsession with Garrett's dog, Dalton. If Abe was to ever leave me, he would leave me for this dog.
Hey Brooks.(just because he wanted to be mentioned on our blog) There are you happy!


6. The farmer's market across the street from Garrett's house,where we stayed. By the way, thank you Garrett, that was very nice of you.

5. going shopping(which consisted of the 3rd street promenade, fashion district, the Beverly center, and the outlets) for hours and hours and dragging Abe around with me and Karla.

4. The city of Monrovia. If i could pick one place to settle and live there for the rest of my life, it would be Monrovia. It is the cutest town with an awesome downtown(which was one street) and the neighborhoods were beautiful! Big trees lined the streets and the houses! Oh, don't get me started on the houses! I was deeply and madly in love with all of them. AND... i saw the Father of the Bride(the movie) house! i can check that one off the list.

3. Opening the door, and seeing Carter Nelson in a speedo. thats all I'm going to say about that one.

2. Seeing Hannah and Robbie married in the temple and seeing all of my wonderful friends, that i miss oh-so-dearly.


And the number one highlight of the trip, that i will probably remember for the rest of my life(because it's that good)is:

1. When we were at the Dodgers game, Abe was sitting behind me, because there were way too many people there. And We were on the very top level and there were all of these beach balls being thrown around. And someone in our section had hit it too hard and it went over the edge. And literally everybody in the crowd, was pissed, and started to Boo the person. I thought to myself,"that sucks for whoever did that!". I turn around to see who it was, and it was ABE! He was just sitting there with this face, and with his hands and shoulders in a shrug and all he could say was,"I'm not from around here!" I was dying of laughter. yup, thats my husband.

Overall the trip was a success. Here are some pictures if you don't believe me.

Aw shucks, I wish we could've been there. Even though I don't know the bride and groom. I must say, that I suffered some side effects from your ridiculously long post. I experienced the following: pooping of the pants (messy) ear wax buildup (sick, dude), excessive gas (stanky), and sudden loss of the knee caps (i still can't find them)
