San Diego


Last month, James attended the American Association for Cancer Research Conference in San Diego.  

The kids and I were invited to come along.  The lab rented this penthouse for everyone to stay, and I was in charge of the food while we were there.  I would make everyone breakfast, help get lunches packed, and then while everyone attended the conference, the kids and I would explore until we needed to be back to get dinner ready.
A few of the things we did...enjoyed the outdoor organ concert, and toured the international houses at Balboa Park (which was only about a mile from the place we were staying)
Went to the Mormon Battalion Center.  Preston is enjoying the gold panning (aka splashing in water)
Explored the museums in Old Town Stake Park.
And got some great time playing...
...eating dirt... 
...and sleeping at the beach.
One of the nights we were invited to join everyone for dinner at Carlotta's Uncle's house for her birthday celebration.  
His house is on the cliffs above the beach, so we had a nice (and steep) hike down to the beach before dinner.
Fun family time!
