Sunday, we took a break from Disneyland and headed to the Los Angeles Temple Visitor Center.
It was a beautiful day and we loved spending the day with my parents.
Lily climbed into this cupboard by herself. Silly girl!
I love this statue!
I love these 4 kids!
I love these parents!
This is such a tall temple and it sits on a hill. When it was built and sometimes still today on a clear day you can see the temple 25 miles from offshore (out in the ocean).
It was closed, not only because it was Sunday but because they were doing an extensive cleaning.
Above is a picture of a palm tree (duh?), but check out that height.
Below, Joey holding a palm frond/tree bark piece-huge!
A random flower by where our car was parked.
We visited the La Brea Tar Pits.
Active tar pits in downtown LA.
They have excavated thousands of animals, remains, etc from post ice age times. It was really cool. I recommend it if you are in the area.
A wall of wolf skulls- only about 1/2 of the skulls they have found.
That is a tar pit fenced off. They have tried to help visitors understand how animals were trapped in pits with these models of prehistoric elephants. The poor baby elephant is reaching towards its parent.
Kids Meal prizes at Carl's Jr. Arabella makes a great pirate!
The 3 older kids sharing a shake. They did not complain, just happily shared the goodness!
Lily stole my dad's I believe and began to drink and then blow bubbles.
Obviously making her very happy!
After Carl's Jr, my parents headed to the airport and we headed to see the Newport Beach Temple.
It has a very distinct look but is so pretty!
A really relaxing day!
