One last date

At least in San Diego. Last night, Jacob and I were able to go on a long date together. For the last three years, we have been trading babysitting with our good friends, Isa and Ben. Every weekend, one couple gets to go on a date, while the other person (usual myself or Isa) sits with our sleeping kids. It has been absolutely wonderful and having two dates a month is going to be very hard to give up. While scheduling our last couple of switches before our big move, Isa and I decided we would each take a turn having a long date, instead of the two or three hours we usually have in the evening. And so last night, we got our turn to go out for the entire afternoon and evening. We loved it. And the kids had the best time ever with the Sabeys.

We started our date at the beach. Although it was the most crowded we have ever seen it in four years, it was a beautiful day and we loved relaxing and enjoying the sand and water. Jacob went snorkeling and saw a guitar fish, a sting ray and even touched a turtle. Super cool.

Next, we came home quickly to change and go to the San Diego temple for the last time. I love this temple. I loved being there with Jacob. I know we will love the temple in Boston, but this particular temple will always hold a special place in my heart. I just had to take a picture as we were leaving.

And then we headed to Old Town in San Diego for dinner. It was wonderful just 

to eat and visit and talk about our time here and how much we have loved it.

It was truly a fantastic way to spend out last date here in this beautiful place.

Thanks Isa and Ben! We will definitely miss you guys.
