Our lovely Saturday






My brother and his wife came down to see Wicked this weekend, so we drove up and met them at Manhattan beach on Saturday.






It was in the 80's, so it was nice to be in the water. First, Chris, Elle and I dug for crabs. We collected a few, but we forgot to take a picture of them swimming around in Elle's little pail :( Next time I'll remember.
We also saw a group of dolphins playing in the water--I didn't think to grab my camera for that either--I was just enjoying them and trying to help Elle see them

Elle and I made a "city" and an "evil city" and a "moat" to go around the city. Elle and I spent a half hour digging and then Jason saved us by finishing it off in about 10 minutes! What a good uncle :)

It was nice and relaxing. A very happy day.


And now for the ANSWERS TO THE QUIZ:

1. a piece in chess: Bishop
2. the name of a mouse poison: (De-con) Deacon
3. a hot drink + what people say when they touch glasses together: (tea+cheers) Teachers
4. someone older than you: Elder
5. a greeting to a 16 year old member of the ward: (Hi! ) High Priest
6. one who gives advice: Counselor
7. leader of meat: (Steak) stake president
8. opposite of post-west: (pre-east) Priest
9. we're in the 2000's and they're in the. . . :70's
10. opposite of loss: Prophet
11. red fruit + the bottom of a shoe.: (apple/sole) apostle

Good job everyone!
