Friday my sister Katie and her family came to visit us. It was so funny cause they weren't supposed to get here until late Friday night so Katie was going to bring the kids in and try to keep them asleep...around midnight the door burst open and there were Ellie and Tate wide awake and hyper! Haha! So much for that, but they were good and went back to sleep soon after!

Saturday we woke up and me, Lexie, and Katie took a walk down to Little Italy and Downtown so they could see some of the places Adam and I walk and hang out. When we got back, we got ready and took the kids to the new Children's Museum downtown. (Adam and I walk by it all the time and think it looks so fun!) It was really neat-the kids got to paint, sculpt clay, blow bubbles, build with blocks, climb a wall, and jump around in the giant pillow fight room. When I say the "kids" got to do all this stuff Adam and Matt are included-they took part in all of the activities and at one point I thought Adam was going to get kicked out of the pillow fight room, haha.

After the museum we ate Mexican for lunch and headed to the Coronado Beach. Tate LOVED it! They all had a lot of fun. Ellie even let Lexie burry her in the sand and they all got a chance to try to ride on Adam's surf board!
That night we all stayed home and hung around our house in comfy clothes. It was fun because whenever people visit they want to try out the restaurants, so I really enjoyed just entertaining at our house. The kids played with Diggy and watched a movie and us adults ate dinner(I made cioppino for the first time ever) and had drinks outside. Even though we were stuffed into our tiny house, I had so much fun. Tate even told Katie that it was fun sleeping on the floor and having a sleep over at my house :)

Sunday we woke up and Adam and I took the girls to one of our favorite coffee shops for coffee (and apple juice :) and then we all drove to La Jolla Cove. It was really fun to see how much the kids liked seeing the crabs, seals, etc. They got dirty and sandy and loved it. Then they had to go home. It went really fast, so I'm excited for them to come back! We are going to visit them and more of our family in Tucson in 3 weeks though, so it won't be long. I love having them so close!
