Goodbye Spring Break..


...Hello, last quarter of college!

 Well, I had a great time with Amber while she was out in California. But the week went by so fast! It was nice to just hang out like old times. Marcos and I had different Spring Breaks this year so he had to work the whole week but we did get to spend one day together in Long Beach with Amber.

 We went to the Long Beach Aquarium, which we had never been to and it was pretty fun. I know the teacher side of Marcos loved learning about all those fish! Then we got to see my friend Michele, and we took Marcos to a Mediterranean Grill which was so delicious. I had been there a couple of times before with Michele but always wanted to take Marcos because that is so his kind of thing... and he made me eat baba ghanouj for the first time! (It's like Hummus, but made with eggplant instead, i guess?)

It was nice to have a little vacation before I start my last quarter. I miss Amber already but I'm so happy she came out to visit. I am so thankful for the friends in my life... even if some of them are scattered all over the place!

Mmmmm, love me some baba ganouj....super yummy.
My next door neighbors are Arabic. They will make us some delicious food and so we are able to experience alot of different flavors.

Although our love for Greek/Mediterranean didn't start there...when i lived in LA (while my girls were in the NICU growing and getting strong to come home) there were so many places that served delicious Arabic food.
We fell in love with it then...

Have you ever tried the place on 7th street called Ala Al Deen? SOOOO yummy!

Miss seeing you at church. We've been going to the harbor service cuz a friend of ours (who's in our OIKOS) has been going and really wants us to go during that time with her.
Have a wonderful rest of the week!
