Newport

Life's been interesting this summer. Between graduating and trying to find a job, there have been lots of other little stresses that have been weighing heavy on me. It's weird, I'm not the only one who feels this way. It seems that now is a time of change and so much is different than it ever has been. In the midst of all these fears and stresses, the beach was just what I needed. Jamie was kind enough to invite me to stay with her family this week. It felt so good to get away from Provo. It just further proved a favorite quote of mine:

There isn't much that a good cry, endorphins from a workout, or sitting by the ocean won't fix.

And this is what went down in California.

Spent the night in downtown Redlands swimming and eating yummy gourmet pizza

Lots of beaching

Finding some Smarts and beaching more

Jane's corn dog with Greg and the sister wives

Digging holes in the sand compliments of Lindsey and Emily

Spouses pushing each other over

Balboa Island

Fair food

And even more fair food.

After some time away and being able to clear my head, I can happily announce that I'm moving to Salt Lake in 3 weeks, and I'm excited and somewhat anxious to do it!
