Just a few pics of the beach!

Dear Family,

Three days to NPB and we are excited. I thought though that I would update on a few family activities. Christopher and I just returned from Summer Camp and Camp Dell Webb, a Boy Scout Camp located near Zion's National Park. It was a backpacking high adventure camp. I had a great time, Christopher isn't too sure it was that much fun. We challenged the boys physically as they had to carry full packs for many many miles.
But there were lots of things to do once you arrived at your new campsite. As you can see lots of very fun things to do.




















However the rain was not all that fun and with both of us sleeping in a tent that was about the size of a baby's crib we found that sleeping was not that easy. Chris complained that I snored a lot but I know that can not be true because I don't think I ever slept at all.






















In other family news, Kimberly also went to girls camp for the first time and absolutely loved it. I don't have any pictures of her at camp but it was great. Then the same week Chris and I were at camp, JoAnn and Kim went to Utah where JoAnn tended Nicole's kids as Nicole is Young Women's President and Kim and Nicole went to her girls camp. Again they said it was loads of fun.

Well I am excited for Newport Beach. See you there in a couple of day.

Let's see if this works...  Emily's team won the gold medal in the American Division at Nationals!!  It was great fun, especially having Grandma and Grandpa there.  They are pretty entertaining!!!  Lace's biopsy came back with low grade changes so they are just "watching" it...no treatment.  Yeah!!!  thanks for all your prayers and concern.  Kaylie is down in Tucson with the Sorensens, trying to "bond" with Bryant before Ang leaves for her surgery.  Emily is going to Huntington next week to spend her last few weeks of freedom with Dana and Cass on the beach.  The rest of us are looking forward to NEWPORT baby!!!!!!  See you all then!!!  xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxDaren

Hi All;

This is exciting. Thank you Nicole for setting this up. We will see if we can keep it up or not. Sunday, JoAnn, Chris, Kim and I went to Santa Barbara to drop Chris off at EFY. We were going to go on Saturday but had a lot going on in church on Sunday so elected to stay and go after church. For future reference, never leave Las Vegas for California on Sunday. It was amazing to see the largest parking lot on earth. Hundreds of miles of parking lot. Very narrow however. But we finally made it. It is always fun to be on the beach and see and feel the beauty. Monday morning JoAnn and I went for a run/walk. Then I had meetings with clients, JoAnn dropped of Chris and his friend Chase Leavitt and then we came home. Wish we could have stayed longer. But it was an appetizer for Newport Beach. Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Love ya lots

Leland

hello

Hi,

 

This is the Sorensen Family.  We are excited that Nicole set this up.  I am very bad and keeping up with things like this but I will try to be better.  We are soooo blessed and happy that Kaylie can be here with us.  She is the light of our lives right now. 

 

We just went to Tubac, Arizona today.  It is kind of an artsy town with a historic side too.  In the late 1700's (I think) it was actually the largest town in Arizona.  It has a presidio with museum.   Now it is full of art galleries and kind of southwestern and Mexican art deco stores.  

 

Lots of love to everyone,

 

Sorensens
