San Deigo

I hate the fact that I'm turning 40 this year.  As you know Bry is being such a sweetie and giving me presents every month this year, but this topped the cake and its not even from him :(  My two besties and I  decided to go somewhere to celebrate turning 40, maybe if we could party we wouldn't be so sad.  Annie my darling friend who lives in Cal. decided that the Del was the place to be, I love going to places I've never been and Coronado is a place that I've only driven threw once. 
Divas turning 40!


 We checked into the Del hotel built in 1888 and it was incredible!  huge chandlers, crown moldings and a butler serving fresh squeezed lemonade.  We shopped ate layout ate went to the spa ate explored the gas lamp district ate visited street fairs ate and did I mention the food? I'm still full!


   It was so beautiful I could live on the beach in a hut in a tent it doesn't matter It's gorgeous!  We found lots of sea shells and did lots of shopping.  My favorite store being a candy store that makes there own chocolate and carmel their smores were to die for. I bought one then was craving another one the next day so... I got one at a different store in Sea Port and it was so yucky,  the next day I made the girls (not hard to do) go back to the candy store to get a fresh one  YUUMMYY!! I want one right now! 
It was sad to leave and come home to a house without a maid or turn down service. but here I am ready to tackle the laundry and get back to the grind.  I've got a full couple of week ahead, when am I going to get my boring summer?  Here's to 40.

Sounds like fun. We've had record cold high temperatures...if that even makes any sense. While I don't enjoy the heat, we've had enough of the endless rain. So, your trip to sunny CA looked fun!
