King Family LIfe As Of Now

The last little while of our King Family life has been pretty busy. Dad, Mom, the Lotts, the Williams, and myself went to California about a week ago. It was a ton of fun! We went to Disneyland, California Adventure, the beach, a National Tide pool park(don't remember what it is called), and a Dodger baseball game. We had a ton of fun! We also have proof that we all went to! Most of us got fried at the beach so if you notice that we all look like tomatoes.. that is why! (Although I am probably the only one who still  shows signs of a real burn. Everyone else's turns in a tan within a few days, but mine is still bright red and it is a week and a half later. Sigh..) But other than that, we had a blast!
Besides California, we really haven't done much. Dad has been at work all week (Sigh..), Mom has been working on repainting and just plain out redoing our house (so far it looks really really amazing!), and I just started school this past Monday (yay...!!). So we have all been pretty busy. 
Mikelle and her cute kids also just flew out here too! She is finally moving back out here (WOO!!) We are all so excited to have her within a few hour drive, instead of a few day drive. It is really fun to have them here. Mikelle and the kids are temporarily staying with us until they get there stuff and can move into their new house. Chris, unfortunately, has to drive the car out here and is in the process of doing that. Poor guy... Speaking of which.. having them here at our house also gives me the chance to cream them in Settler of Catan-Cities and Knights!!! BRING IT!!

Celebrity Moment!!

So I just got back from my Senior Trip with the rest of the seniors in my stake. It was a blast! We went to the new Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house, we did baptisms for the dead at the Monticello Temple, saw the new movie "Up" (that was an amazing movie! I recommend it!), hiked up an Indian Ruin named the Cidadel, toured Temple Square a little bit, and went on a river run in Moab. It was so much fun and it was really really cool! What was also amazing was the fact that I had a celebrity moment! Our first day, we went to Tucanos for lunch (LOVE it there!) and guess who we saw there? Andrei Kirilenko from the Utah Jazz BB team!! It was amazing! He just came and ate lunch there the exact time we did! It was great. We were all star-struck for the rest of the day! We even got him to take pictures with all of us!
