Dexter and I celebrated our 13th Wedding Anniversary by spending a romantic weekend in Monterey, Ca. It's become somewhat of a tradition that every year on our Anniversary weekend we cart the kids off to my mom and dad's house and we head down to Pacific Grove for a few days. It is probably one of my most favorite spots on this earth. This year seemed especially wonderful because we stayed in the most adorable place ever and the weather was perfect. In the past when Dex and I have stayed in Monterey, the weather is overcast, cloudy, and about 60 degrees. We've never seemed to mind it as it's a great escape from the 100 degree Sacramento heat. However, this year the weather was so perfect I wondered if we were in the right place. We started out on our grand escape Sunday, August 9th. Of course, the whole way down I couldn't stop talking because I was so excited to have a weekend alone with my hubby and when the kids are around I can never get a word in edgewise. So, naturally as I babbled on and on so quickly Dexter had to remind me to slow down because after all, we did have the whole weekend together.

So, the first thing we did when we got to Monterey was hit one of our favorite spots to eat, El Torrito. We both love Mexican food and the view from this place is incredible. After being on the road for almost three hours we were starving. I can't believe how much food we ate.

I'm glad you updated your blog! I need to, also! I LOVE the pic of you and Dex in front of fishermans wharf. That should be enlarged and framed!
