biceps, great weather, and starbucks

today was my last day in southern california. sad day! but it was great to spend the day with my family.

1. starbucks
this morning i got to go to starbucks with my aunt lisa and my grandpa. grandpa had never been there before, so we decided that this thanksgiving break, we had to treat him to a salted caramel hot chocolate. they were delicious, and it was a fun way to spend the morning.

2. apple products
it appears we have become an apple family. everyone, minus my grandparents, has an iphone. some of us have ipads. (not me, i'm not that cool.) we have mac laptops. it's pretty crazy, but it's a great way for us to stay in contact with each other.

3. the weather
um, hello. it was 85 degrees today. let me tell you, i was in heaven. i was wearing a short sleeved shirt and flip flops all day. fantastic. tomorrow i am off to the land of snow and ice (well, there's no snow, but it'll be there soon), but i am so happy to have had this wonderful day.

walker, dad, and grandpa in the wonderful weather. grandpa was standing on a block of wood because he felt short :)

oh, ps, in case you were wondering, this is what my brother's biceps look like.

4. the mall
the mall here is out of control. it's enormous. i can't even...it's big. it has pretty much every store imaginable. i love it. i got a skirt and a sweater. it was great!

jimmy choo! this is for baby j, an hommage to our trip to canada.

5. the usc win
it would have been a very sad evening in the hughes household if usc had lost. i'm grateful that they won because the usc win = happy hughes men.

6. my cousin scott
one year ago today, my cousin scott got his mission call to tallahassee, florida. it was one of the coolest experiences, watching him open his call and see where he was going. we all miss him, but he's in the right place. oh, and of course i'm grateful for bray'd and mark, too :)
scott and i after he opened his call.

the 'scott corner' at thanksgiving :)
well, in the morning i'm flying back to utah. i'm grateful that i've been able to spend the week here in los angeles with my family. i've loved every minute of it!
