One Year Engagement Anniversary Weekend

Dave planned a trip back to the Hotel Del for our one-year engagement anniversary weekend. He booked a room in the old Victorian part of the hotel, however, when we went to check in the gal told us there was a bunch of construction going on and that the views weren't that great. So we moved to the Ocean Tower with a 5th floor ocean view.
We checked in and went for a short walk.

There is a guy who builds these sandcastles year-round in front of the Del.
Friday night dinner was at the Prep Kitchen in Little Italy.
Saturday morning we were up early and walked through the hotel and then along the beach for about 3 miles.


I had never seen so many sand dollars in my life - they were everywhere!

I could wake up at the beach every morning.

My favorite coffee shop from the trip.

Ice skating Saturday morning - this time we actually ice-skated for a little longer than we did a year ago :)

My kind of snowman. I do enjoy the snow and think it is beautiful, however, I would take a beach and sun any day.
Dave was craving fish tacos for lunch so I googled best fish tacos in San Diego. Puesto was rated #1.
They were excellent, however, the fish taco (one on the right) was SO spicy. My favorite was the beef-pomegranate taco special (one on the left).
We went to La Jolla for lunch so walked to the sea lions after lunch.

We got back to the hotel just in time to watch the sunset from our balcony.
We stayed at the hotel for dinner Saturday night. We had a little time to walk around so we went into the lobby and listened to the carolers.

Dinner was at Eno at the Del.
To end Saturday we had a fire pit on the beach.
We roasted marshmallows together and made S'mores (I omitted the chocolate since I really don't like it).
I posted on Instagram that we spent the weekend reminiscing on the past year and everything that had happened. We talked about our hopes and dreams for the next year and while we had a list of them we both agreed that our top two are that we want to fall more in love with each other and more in love with our Savior. #thebestisyettocome
