We just got our pictures from this vacation so we are finally getting around to posting them all. This summer we went to Santa Cruz, CA with Bryan's parents and Jarom before he left for his mission in Boston. We started the trip at the Oakland Temple. It is sooo beautiful!

I absolutley loved all the gorgeous flowers! We had to walk around and take pictures with all of them :)

The view from the Temple was amazing! You could see all of Oakland.

Bryan...
The family after Jarom recieved his endowments to go on his mission!!!So after Oakland we headed straight for Santa Cruz. We did tons of fun tours while we were vacationing here. We went to the Winchester Mansion in San Jose. It has such a crazy story behind it--a little creepy, but it was a cool tour! It's this huge house with over 150 rooms that the lady never quit building on while she was alive.
Bry and I in the house. The lady was scared of Ghosts so she'd build doors that opened to cement walls and stairs that led to no where--CRAZY!

Us outside the mansion before the tour. After the Winchester Mansion we went to the movie theater to see Over the Hedge. We also went the Mystery Spot. Very neat. The gravity is supposidly off center in this area. I didn't really believe it until we went the the tour--again it was crazy. I felt nauseated the entire time, and had the hardest time standing up straight but it was very fun!!!
Me, B, and Jarom just hanging out waiting for the tour to start! This
picture was during the tour in the fun house. Bryan and a bunch of British boys were doing the Matrix move.
