Descanso Gardens

8/25/11
My dad, sister, and I wanted to do something before summer was over so we were about to go to the Huntington Library but we got too late of a start. We got there and then realized we were about to only have like, two hours there and would have to pay $15. So we decided to go to Descanso Gardens instead.

This was a very nice place. It's less manicured than the Huntington Library and is smaller and more woodsy. It was a pretty nice place though. One thing: it was SOOO HOT that day that we left before closing just because we were all dying and I forgot my baseball cap and so did Dana.

Kitten Photo Shoot

Went on a tiny photo shoot to capture Torie with her kittens outside. Michael and Dana were my reflector holders.

Universal Studios w/ Family

10/24/11
Went to Universal Studios with the family since Michael and Dana had a furlough day. It was a quick little 4-hour trip but it wasn't too busy and the weather was really nice.

Kitty Overload!

10/9/11
Some cat laid kittens outside of Torie's apartment and she's been taking care of them ever since. We went down to pick Torie up and played a little (okay, a lot) with the kittens.

Baby Justin

10/15/11
Went with Dana and Auntie Helen to go visit Uncle Philip, his wife, and baby Justin, who is all grown up now since we last saw him! We also visited Apple J, their tortoise.

Got lost on the drive there but found our way soon enough. Ahhh so confusing sometimes.
