Visiting the beach, temple and family

I wanted to take a picture of the sand. We have white sand on the Gulf Coast. I thought it was neat how different the sad was on the Pacific Ocean.

Mom and I at the Santa Monica Beach. Carole did a great job with this one, didn't she?

Santa Monica Pier

The family statue at the Los Angeles temple. I LOVED it there! The temple was huge and the grounds were just beautiful.

Los Angeles family. Left to right, Don Evan ( a cousin), Mom, June (married to my mom's cousin who is now deceased), Gail, Melody (a cousin that I was named after), and Carole.
Don Evan and Melody are June's children. Gail and Carole are sisters. June married Mom, Gail and Carole's cousin. Confusing.

That night, we ate at the Queen Mary, a docked ship from England. Caroline who is Gail's daughter met us for dinner. There was a submarine there too, but it was closed. That would have been fun to check out.
