On Thursday my family went to a movie together.  We saw Journey to the Center of the Earth, in 3D!  I thought for sure it was going to be cheesy...but it was actually pretty good!  If you haven't seen it, I recommend it.  Very cute. :-)  We even got to keep these SUPER cool 3D glasses!

For a long time, I'd been planning to go to the coast this weekend.  My initial plans were changed just a bit, but I had such a great time anyway!!  My parents drove over early Saturday morning and then me, Ashley, and my sister drove over around noon.  It was BEAUTIFUL!  About 30 degrees cooler there...and a little fog...so we spent a ton of time on the beaches.  Saturday afternoon we spent at the beach in Cambria, then mom and dad treated us to dinner together on Moonstone Beach Drive. 

This morning my dad and I fixed breakfast--pancakes, sausage, eggs--and then we all drove down to Morro Bay.  

We did some rock hopping around Morro Rock, then spent a little bit of time on the Embarcadero.  Check out this funny series of pictures with the sea lion... 

School starts on Thursday, but we report back for meetings tomorrow.  Ah...summer is officially over. :-(  Oh well!  It was a great summer, I enjoyed all my vacations, the big trips and the little ones, and I'm looking forward to what the next few months bring me!!

P.S...54 days...but who is counting?  ;-)
