CA trip part 2

 My other sister! Glad she came by to visit :)

 Family time :) Just missing Adam.

 Can never resist cupcakes. Its seriously a problem. Put one near me, and I will eat it without hesitation.

 Got my Rubio fix.

 Had to get some Chik fil A to support them. I love their sauce so much. I have a whole stash in my pantry. Sometimes they can get stingy when you ask for a lot of sauce. I am always specific when I ask now. I usually ask for 4-6 sauces.

 I was craving a Balboa Bar, so we came down just for that.

 Loved all the fresh flowers.

 Watched the Olympics pretty much every night

 I totally missed my dog the whole time. He is like a child.

 Lover of cupcakes. However, I don't like cake unless its cheesecake. Cupcakes only please.

Brad came to visit. 

 My dad's fresh garden produces yummy BLT's.

Couldn't visit CA without getting some Cafe Rio.

 More beach time :)

Ice cream is always a must with the Towner boys. Since I married a Towner, our freezer is always stocked with it. I can't complain. As much as we eat, we should be fatties. Not necessarily the case with us.

 Another bonfire :)

 Can't have a family dinner without some virgin pina coladas.

 More of Judy's cheesecake. I think I ate 1/3 of it.

Well, long story short. I had a great vacation filled with loved ones and good food. Life is too short not to enjoy all the yummy food out there, and definitely too short not to spend it with the people you care about most.

p.s. it was really hard to smile due to my gross fever blister. Sorry if it grosses anyone out, but it was part of the trip.
