We are back from Cali! We had such a fun time! We went to the L.A Temple which is BEAUTIFUL and so big, probably the biggest temple I've seen, shopping on Ventura Blvd, saw The Chronicles of Narnia, went to Universal Studios and had a cousin BBQ! We stayed in North Hollywood, or NoHo as the locals call it, at Todd's mom's apartment.  It is so nice and in such a nice area, and we were so close to everything! We ate at this amazing bakery called Portos, it is a fancy-like Cuban place with a pastry case that is like a mile long! They have great sandwiches and tons of bread too.  It was a short trip but we didn't make any set plans so it was a lot of fun! Todd's cousin Tanner and his girlfriend Bri came down to spend the day with us Saturday at Universal Studios, so you'll see them in some of the pictures.  We need to take a family trip there, it is so much fun, especially the Studio Tour! We got to see sets from the new Indiana Jones, and we drove down Wisteria Lane from Desperate Housewives! It was really hot but it was a good day to go and there was a 5 minute wait on both rides so we just kept riding them over and over again. That night we drove down to Orange County and met up with Todd's cousin Nate at his condo for a BBQ! It was fun and very yummy! Long story short, we had a great trip but we are glad to be home!
