This day.

Today I saw 8 lizards (little tiny fast Devils, they made me squeal, the first one almost ran over my feet) 2 birds, 2 crabs and lots of people on the beach! We went to a place called crystal cove at low tide and played in the tide pools for awhile. Oh my goodness I love the ocean. I could feel myself burning though even with the sunscreen I had on, so two reapplying sessions later and I still have pink cheeks. I think it's funny how thirsty for sun my skin is. We went with Connors mom, Max, Aunt Laree and Kelsey. Only Teri, me, Connor and Max went down to the beach, then Teri and Max and Laree and Kelsey left while Connor and I walked a ways up the beach and explored a little bit. Goodness I am thankful for sunshine! It wasn't so much so that I couldn't see, but it also made me feel like we were somewhere different than Utah. Oh I love it here! We took a little nap then went to Ally Mehners house where I finally met Zack and the mittleman twins AKA Megan and Madison. Oh I loved them! We made dinner then played in the kitchen and chatted and went to the community jacuzzi in Ally's neighborhood (holy cow I felt so ritzy going there, there was stubby shaped pool, a giant jacuzzi(which is what everyone calls them here instead of hot tubs) and it was all palm tree-y and lit just right. It was fun!) I told Connor about my jealousy for him having such a great group of friends and how wonderful they all are. He was counting his blessings after that. It wasn't my intention, but it just made me grateful for all the good friends I have. Goodness I love him! I almost fell asleep like three different places today, playing in the sun makes me sleepy! But oh so worth it! Oh and we kissed at sunset, we watched it from Ally's porch and it was a lot magical. We both said things from our story that the other one didn't know while we were telling it to the mittleman twins. I love it when that happens. We still have so many discussions to have. I love him!
