A Wonderful San Diego Weekend!

Well, we didn't actually go down and stay there or anything, but we did some super fun stuff in the greatest city on earth!

Sunday: We left church as soon as Gary said "let's pray" so that we wouldn't get stuck in a crowd of people because we had to be in downtown by 12:30'ish because our show was at 1. You see, Adam, being the wonderful husband that he is, got us tickets to see Phantom of the Opera for my birthday!!!! YAY!!! So, having had the sound track since high school (I think) I was totally excited to go and see it and sing along, of course!
Well, so, I knew all the songs, but actually seeing it on stage made the songs far more dark and creepy and kind of instilled a new fear of mirrors into me, but nonetheless - IT WAS AMAZING!!! So, afterwords, we went and had an amazing dinner at the Prado in Balboa Park and actually watched two weddings during our 3 hours dinner (They were moving those couples right along) but since the waitress asked if we were celebrating anything, we gave her the story that we were celebrating my birthday, but that it was a month ago... but she didn't care, she still brought us an awesome sorbet dessert!
Monday: We met up with our friends, Justin and Elisha and took the long drive back down the Balboa Park for a picnic and organ concert in the park. We had a great dinner of pasta salad and brownies and then played our favorite card game, hand and foot (or hands and feet, or foot and mouth). The music was fabulous, as usual, the guy who was playing last night was only 19 and we were very impressed! During his second to last song, Justin and I just had to get up and dance along! Enjoy our weirdness!




So, we had a great time in San Diego, too bad we don't live closer, but it's nice for little getaways like these two wonderful adventures!
