Friendships, like a fine wine, get better with age. Few things are as sweet as a good wine, a good friend and that Southern California sunset. It was the weekend I had been looking forward to for quiet some time- my friend, Brianna, was here to visit. As much as I love new friends, those…
Before we bid our farewells to the city that captured our hearts and solidified our love we want to do anything and everything we can. With only a few weeks left as residents of San Diego, there is still so much for me to see. I feel as if I have only just arrived and…
Have I mentioned that I love Sundays? How about bike rides on the beach? What about the fact that it’s seventy degrees and sunny in December? Or, breakfast burritos? And of course, David! I have?
