President's Day in California!

We had a great trip to California! The women took the town of LA by storm. Lauris and Dawn took the flight over from DC and I met them in LAX Airport. What. A. Disaster!!! The LAX airport has got to be one of the most discombobulated places ever. 

We finally met up and got our rental car,  a sweet Ford Taurus (aka boat) which was extremely hard to park. After picking up the rental we took a cruise down to our hotel. As you can imagine...Warm, sunny, California beaches, sunglasses and tank tops....unfortunately none of those were needed. We arrived just in time for a weekend of cold rainy downpour. It was really unfortunate for the BYU Lacrosse team who had to play in the terrential downpour while we had the comfort of our umbrellas. The games were a lot of fun and BYU went 3-0 throughout the weekend.

During our stay we stayed at the Embassy Suites and although the views were nice, we were most excited about the amazing breakfast the hotel had every morning. The weekend was filled with a dismal drizzle until Monday which then turned  into the ideal California sunshine. We snuck Andrew away from the Lacrosse team for a few hours and took a drive down by the beach and stopped at a phenomenal pizza place called BJ's. I do not know if we have ever eaten so much delicious food in one sitting and then even topped it off with a massive pazookie!! Unfortunately we had to leave just as the sun began shining again but it was such a fun trip and we can't wait for next years California trip.
