California Dreamin'

We took a road trip to California last month to go to the U.S. Open and decided to make a week long trip of it. We started by going to two areas that were in Brady's mission, which was really fun. I enjoyed meeting some of the people that Brady spent time with while he was in California. This is a picture of us after we finally made it to our hotel room after hours of driving.

Hiking

Besides being with me, this is Brady's favorite place to be :)

Muir Woods National Monument was really beautiful and fun. I've never seen so many gigantic trees in my life!

Don't ask. He's faking it.

The Golden Gate Bridge was amazing! I was nervous just walking on it because I'm so afraid of heights, but was really cool. Here Brady is trying to scare me by putting his feet on the railing...it worked.

The Oakland Temple is amazing. So beautiful!

Brady was doing this...golf

While I was doing this...freezing!

Time out for a pic

We decided to go to a baseball game (Giants vs. Orioles), my first ever MLB game, and I had so much fun. It was fun to sit and enjoy the game, look out onto the ocean and eat a hot dog and peanuts. Great night!

Great field

This is us on the shuttle to to the U.S. Open. We are trying to do our excited faces if you can't tell. I knew it would be fun, but I had a lot more fun than I had anticipated. I for sure want to go again sometime in the future.

This is at the entrance of the Open

Also at the entrance

Brady signed up for a golf lesson (like he needs it) from a golf pro. It was cool because they hooked him up to a computer with sensors and critiqued his swing and gave him some pointers. I could have signed up, but would have felt really stupid because there were people standing around watching. I could have used the lesson, but oh well!

It was awesome seeing Tiger Woods. He and Phil Mickelson just have this aura about them. It was really cool to see both of them!

Pebble Beach is so pretty. I was amazed at how beautiful the course is with the bright blue ocean next to it. And we had perfect weather which was awesome!

We had such a great time in California and I can't wait to go back sometime soon. It was alot of fun to spend all day, every day, with Brady. Life gets busy with work and school and other constraints, so it was great to take a whole week off to spend time with just each other. :)
