California

This past week I went to California to visit one of my besties from college, Emily. Emily and I were roomies junior year and were in nursing school together so we have lots of memories (like accidentally sleeping through one of our nursing finals, freezing in our college house, taking walks and singing all of our sunday school favorites, I could go on and on =)
We kept Coldstone and Dairy Queen in business by getting ice cream almost daily, I took advantage of her cable and got hooked on really stupid shows (ie Basketball Wives...ridiculous), we went to Disneyland and Six Flags, hung out with her parents and just spent some quality time hanging out. I always love getting to see and experience my friends lives. 
At Disneyland. I have never seen so many strollers in my life haha. Emily's parents met us there and according to Emily, we ate the best corndogs ever. (They were delicious). My favorite ride was Indiana Jones, and not gonna lie, it was kinda fun going on It's a Small World and feeling like a kid again =) I also loved the firework show-seeing Tinkerbell flying through the air made my jaw drop.

Everyone loves the Little Mermaid!

My friend from Calvin, Jill, was in LA for the weekend for work, so we had a sleepover on Friday night. She is such an encouraging blessing to me and I love that we had a mini Calvin reunion =)

Emily's boyfriend got us tickets for Six Flags. It was my first time ever on a rollercoaster. I was pretty nervous, but kinda liked them! (Besides the wicked headaches it gives you)

Had to stop at the beach before flying home. I can see why the palm trees, sunny skies and ocean attract people to want to live in California!

So beautiful. 




 It was a great trip and I'm so grateful Em let me follow her around all weekend. Friends are such a blessing!
