My Trip to CA


This Summer i worked at the BYU sports camps all summer long! It was a lot of fun, but once they were finished i got to go home to CA and have a few adventures! I ate the best food ever (In-n-out) about 10 times, i went to the beach, watched the dodgers lose, stalked celebrities and protected marriage. It was awesome! The picture above me is when we went to the dodgers rockies game! the rockies beat the dodgers by a lot... but it was fun nonetheless!

Andrew was getting down on a dodger dog... best hot dog in baseball!!! oh soo good!
The Kinneys really love hot dogs!!!
Im on the phone talking with Scout helping her understand the glory that is Dodger stadium... even if they cant win a game to save their lives!!!
Here are the lovely ladies that i got to go to the game with.
the guy in the black threw out the first pitch... he is a famous movie star... chazz something... he won an oscar maybe...
crazy cute!
This kid was a rockies fan and kept cheering whenever the rockies did anything good, which happened a lot, which made me even angrier. eventually the guy in front of them asked them where their seats were supposed to be... and they moved. Thank goodness, Punk kid!
Dodgers Stadium!


i went to the beach with ben and chris, it was a grand ol' time! look how tan i got! we stopped by ralphs and bought spf 4 lotion, thats why im so golden brown.

Ben and Chris.
Me, allison, and nancy had a little party... we are all a little socially inept.... nice braid allison!
Me and Kristen went to del taco among other things. there was a homeless guy on the otherside of the ordering thing... he scared me.
Then i went to the beach with the family! here is Kira, karli (sp), and Jared playing in the sand.
Jared didnt really like it when the tide came in on him... i thought it was kind of funny.
Here is julie and the kids!
Heres my mom enjoying the sand, the sun and the water and "the sound and the fury"
kira likes rootbeer!
This is brad. I was out in the water boogie boarding and he came up to me and asked me to help him catch waves... he was a funny kid and i helped him out... a couple times he wiped out and i hoped his mom wasnt watching...
I went to koreatown with merrill grady. we found Tank boys, the best frozen dessert ever!!!
bazledua and i went to a hangook food place for some heyjanggook. it was aight... when we walked in the lady ran up to us and was like " you want soup with noodle and beef..." i think she thought we didnt know what was going on so she was really surprised when we busted out the korean... i thought she was gonna have a heart attack!
heres me doing my best korean pose!
KIMCHI!!!!



here is what was left of the heyjjanggook... it was okay... ther was a lot of veggies and seemingly no meat. but it made me fulll.. but i did have INNOUT for dinner that night. so it made it all better!



after lunch, i realized i locked my keys in my car, so we called triple A and roberto or carlos, came and saved us!
he was from honduras, he was tight!

After hanging out with merrill and juan perro, i had a few hours to kill in LA before i picked up Ben to drive home with him the next day. so i did what anyone would do and i picked up a star map on hollywood blvd!
The first stop on my tour was American Idol Judge, Simon Cowell's house. He had a big fence all around his house and as i drove by i could have sworn i heard him say something negative!

Next on my star tour was Tom and Katie Cruises house. here is their gate. i thought about knocking on the gate and telling them i was a lost operating thaeton 3 in need of some bread and water. i wonder if that would have worked?


Then i swung by ozzy osbournes house. it was pretty fun, i smelled bats roasting on the bbq as i drove by.

Next i went to britney spears house. i found her gate.

Then i went to Dinah Shores house. She's famous for being mentioned in adam sandlers channukuh song.



The last stop was at Jack Palances house. he was in city slickers and he hosted the original ripleys tv show. hes pretty great.

on the drive home i picked up a homeless hitchhiker. he told me stories of the road and other things.


i got kind of tired while we were driving. its a long one!

When i got back to provo i help the johnstons move! Ryan was pretty excited about the drive to boston he was about to embark on!

Goodbye Ryan and Piper! i will miss you guys!

And that sums up what i did in CA! i wish i had taken pictures of all the best food ever i had and the lucilles bbq i got to eat too! it was fun to be in CA with my family and INNOUT! i plan on having some more adventures up here at school! wont you join me!?

What I've Been Up To


I havent updated my blog in about three months... but heres a glimpse of the things ive been doing these days. On my birthday i was in charge of FHE and we went to Rock Canyon Park and had drumsticks and went ice blocking. It was fun and we had a great time!
Here we are sliding down the hill...

Heres my home teacher Jared Foote going down skeleton style.
On Wednesday August 6, my buddy from my mission, Jacob Durham got married. I went to his reception in Salt Lake.
Then Cami Cadman was in Provo and gave me call and we hung out on BYU campus for a bit!
On Friday we went on a bit of an adventure up to my buddy twans cabin and into the mountains near walsburg.

Heres drew getting ready for his "exploding chicken"...
Twan was pretty excited to use chopsticks
The crew at the chinese place in Heber. It was pretty good.



Here I am getting in the mood to do some country bumpkin stuff. we were even listening to country music. About this time we saw a water tire and flag tire. pretty impressive.
Heres drew emptying his clip on an innocent sprite zero can.
If you vote OBAMA these guys win. ;)
Anyhow ive been having fun this summer. I will be going back to CA next week and hope to have lots of adventures there! i will try my best to keep you all posted!
