The arrived last Weds evening, and we went to Rubios for dinner. Joyce loves Mexican food, probably because she lived in Mexico for a year in the 1990's.
Andrew, Joyce, and I @ Rubios.
On Thursday we went to the beach in Del Mar. In previous times when they visited us in San Diego, it was always winter. So they weren't used to the beach being crowded with people and not as windy and cool.
When Andrew saw the beach, he was excited and ran ahead of us.
Hmm... which side of the beach would you want to be on? The fun side? Or the party-pooper side?
Alex, Joyce, Xander, and Andrew.
There was also a playground with ocean view.
After we went home, Todd and I worked on making Tuscan Potato Soup for dinner. Todd picked the recipe because he knows how much Joyce loves the Zuppa Toscana at Olive Garden. This recipe is very similar to that soup, except healthier.
Todd was right. Joyce loved it so much she ate three bowls! Feels good to make food that everyone loves.
Over the next few days I'll catch up on all our adventures together the last week.
Looks like you had a great visit! How sweet of Todd to make that soup for your sister! :) Have a great weekend, Christine!
