The Pink Temple

We are so blessed to live in an area with so many temples near by {4 within 1.5 hours}! Since we moved here, I have wanted to go to all of the temples that are close.  However, until last weekend we had only been to the Redlands one that is 15 minutes from our house.  We had a free Saturday and decided to combine our beloved beach day with a temple day too! We decided to go to the Newport temple since we like to go to Newport/Huntington beach anyway.  This is a very unique temple because it is PINK! {History Lesson: The members of the area asked and funded the temple by themselves, unlike any other temple}.  It was so gorgeous inside!! I encourage everyone to see it at some point in their lives.

In pictures, you can only barely see a pink hue. Still very pretty.
So after the temple, we headed to the nearby beach.  Unfortunately it was crazy packed and we drove around for an hour looking for parking.  We decided to head down the coast a bit to Huntington and alas, we found parking! It was a beautiful day with some great waves.  We even got to see the beginning of a white trash chick fight. hah.

Soaking in the rays.
We both had sun screen on and weren't out super long, but apparently sun screen only helps where you put it:
You can't tell very well in this picture, but apparently I striped Jeff's back... ooops.

I guess rubbing the spray sun screen around after you spray it, doesn't cut it!

Fashion statement?
