So I am trying to get as much fun in as possible without spending money (besides gas money) before I start my job next Tuesday. So we have been checking out the local sites here. We went to La Brea Tar Pits by the George Page Museum and saw some cool fossils and excavation projects. It was in LA next to an art museum and it had some really neat sculptures along the walkways. Then we went to some different local parks and Soy made many friends and collected "swords" aka sticks. One night we checked out Griffith Observatory--which was awesome and it's only 15 minutes away from our house! It is a really nice observatory free to the public--okay for little kids but even better for a date night. We had a beach day at Seal Beach in Orange County. Sawyer was a little hesitant at first probably because of the big waves and all of the noise they made but warmed up after awhile when Joel started making a game out of running from the waves. The seagulls attacked our picnic and tried to destroy our picnic basket. They managed to poke a few holes through some sandwiches and the applesauce containers before we secured our basket. London is not at all sure about the water. She likes to sit in my lap or at least where she can touch me. We got to the beach in 45 minutes and it took us an 1 1/2 hrs to get home....but its better than no beach! We will definitely be going often. Mostly so London can wear her adorable bucket hat and beachwear!

Looks like fun! I am so jealous of you guys out on the warm beach. The other day Jared asked how long you guys will be in CA. I said probably forever. And he was like "Sweet. I really want to visit them before they move." So there you have it!
I can't believe you cut off all your hair! It is very cute and fun. You look like you belong on the beach!
