Weekend in LA

  Daryl wanted to go to his Holiday office party, so that meant going to LA.  He was already there for work, and I was able to fly down the day before thanks to the lovely Ashley and Ayva who watched the kidlets while we were gone.    The party was Friday night and we returned home Saturday night.  We had a great time hanging out just the two of us.  It was like our Christmas gift to ourselves.  Friday night while we were gone we lost power.  Fortunately it was just after Ashley and the kids pulled out the last batch of gingerbread cookies.  They found a lantern and some flashlights and decorated cookies.  The kids had a great time!


Hollywood!  This was taken from the Griffiths Observatory.

I spent Thursday by myself in Disneyland until Daryl picked me up after work.  

The hotel we stayed at is brand new and extremely tall with excellent views.

This was the view from our room.

This is a helipad we could see from our hotel room.

Daryl and I saw a coyote on our walk up to the Griffith Observatory.

The Griffith Observatory was a great place to visit that we had never been before.

Meanwhile back home Ashley helped the kids construct a gingerbread house.

Avery is back at the table, Ayva is opposite Luke, Emery, and Harper decorating cookies by the lantern hung from our pot filler above the stove.

Daryl and I went to the Los Angeles temple Saturday morning.  It was gorgeous and big!
