Manhattan Beach Post

Best restaurant I've ever experienced. Being with my two daughters sealed the deal.

The check comes with a book to sign. People draw pictures and make comments. Our artist signed with the state of TX and a promise to come back. 

Another fun filled week of memories in CA.

Thanks Arnold's and Jessica for the fun in San Diego. 

Manhattan Beach Post

An Amazing dinner with two of my girls, wine and all. 

My taste buds had some very new experiences. I felt like I was one of the judges on Top Chief. I now understand what they were talking about when they say things like, "I like how the so in so compliments the so in so and this dish tastes like a party in my mouth. etc. It was the Best eating experience I've had. Never did I think I'd eat names I can't even pronounce. I have to have the menu to spell and know all the names of the things we ate. (which I'll get from Jessica when I get home)

Good bye San Diego and hello Poway

Picnicking in Poway.

 Karrington is showing Malyn how to catch a lizard. You first have to get food, aka, rolly polly. But she decided she liked the ones she found to much to feed the lizards. :)

We are heading down the trail behind the Pierce Crew's house to see where Harrison and Anderson go to school. 

 

 Line up, left to right, Mattie Sue, Karrington, Eli, Harrison, Anderson, and Malyn.

 Harrison and Stacy had to go to art classes so our group picture is short two. :( We all talked family reunion in CA. So OH, TX, AZ,  IL and VT relatives lets do it. !!! 

Last day in San Diego then on to Poway...

Downtown mall. What's that we see...??? A Nordstrom that has a lunch room and NYDJ in white and shoes and scarfs, O my then a huge checkered board game. What could be better???  

 Perhaps a precious little girl sitting by the bay??

 Or the whole group posing in front of the Midway Aircraft Carrier along with the statue of a couple saying good bye before going off to war. (Not sure of the story of this but I know this is in FL as well.) Anyone know?

Next stop Poway to see the cousins!!!

Hotel Fun

Room Fun

 Room with a view. We could see the lights of the Harbor. The Midway Aircraft Carrier was lit up with red, white and blue lights.  We saw the North and South Bay lights from the boat, ships and land. So pretty. 

 Auntie Jessica french braiding Mattie Sue's hair.

 :) great job 

 Malyn, hummmm, her own creation of Jessica's hair...

 New style. 

Pool fun...

Swimming always makes one very hungry. 

Bye Mom and Auntie and Eli, we are loving it here. 

 2nd day of swimming and again moms are off shopping. 

Girls and I are having so much fun.

Sister fun in the pool for 2 hours.

 Malyn's beginning of her cannonball. She went in completely rolled up. Good job! Great splash.

Seaport Village in San Diego, CA

Spent two nights in San Diego while Auntie Jessica was there on business. We had beautiful weather and fun filled days exploring the downtown of San Diego.

 Girls rode the Carousel twice. Mom and I could only go around one turn. Girls made it two times. 

 Triplets strolling the village. :)

Eli was fascinated with the water.
