Family Visits

It was recently pointed out to me that I haven't posted in a month.  Do you think once a month is enough to blog?  Don't answer that.  I definitely have lost my blogging mojo.  I guess I'm not sure I should be always blogging about the everydayness of life.  Most successful blogs support an artist or a business.  With that little vent, I will get on with my post.

We've had our kids visit us this summer.  Our oldest daughter and son-in-law visited us in July over her birthday.  We decided to check out the San Diego Safari Park the first day.  I could show you many, many more animal photos, but just wanted to give you a peek.

 Then we had our Australian kids join us for the weekend. Poor Sandy and Mark were buried under one of their suitcases in my little car.  

They all loved our favorite Mexican restaurant.  

 On Monday we visited the La Jolla coves northern San Diego. 

Our landlocked kids wanted to see the ocean.  

 All the kids climbed down to the beach and explored the caves.

 A friend recommended we eat lunch at the award winning Porkyland in La Jolla.  I didn't know it was a Mexican food restaurant, but BOY WAS IT DELICIOUS.  Above are my Carne Asada Tacos that HH and I shared. I can never have too much Mexican food.

 Later that day we celebrated DD1's birthday at a local winery.

Last but not least, the kids had to have In-N-Out on the way to the airport.  Kind of an unusual brunch, don't you think?  But very delicious! Stay tuned for our DD2's visit.  Hopefully I'll post that within the next month.
