Well all good things must come to an end! We all went to breakfast together this morning and enjoyed the sunny, breezy morning! We got all packed up and then helped Megan and Todd with the boys and got them all packed up. We both headed out at the same time, but they headed for Vegas to Todd's family reunion. Brooke didn't have to be dropped off at the airport until around 3:30, so we spent the day together poking around! San Diego is one of her favorite places! It is also Father's Day today and it was fun to spend it doing such fun things with one of our sweet daughters! We decided to swing by the temple to just walk on the ground, but is was completely closed for renovations inside and out! They're redoing all the grounds, so we couldn't even get in to walk around. We were pretty bummed! That's one of Brooke's favorite temples! We drove by our VERBO rental house that we're coming back to in a couple of weeks with our entire family-- including Ben! I'm so excited for that trip! It's a cute little house and isn't far from the beach! There are really cute houses in the area that have been renovated and fixed up-- it's a fun beachy vibe there! Then Brooke wanted to go and check out Sunset Cliffs-- it's a really cool spot and we got several pictures there. (It was a wild goose chase finding it, though!) We know Ben is close to proposing and Brooke has dropped SEVERAL hints to him that she would LOVE to have the proposal happen at this Sunset Cliffs area, but as we poked around, she decided that anywhere on the beach would be just as perfect and she realized that she wanted Ben to be able to choose that. Instead we'll probably take some family pictures up on these cliffs, while I've got everyone together in a few weeks. Hopefully the proposal will happen sometime during our trip and we know that Ben is purchasing the ring right now... soooooo.... we will see if it happens in San Diego or not! These cliffs are super cool and there are TONS of places to take pictures! It would look good for a Christmas card! Hahaha! After we left the cliffs, we were hungry for lunch, so we stopped at The Habit and got some yummy salads, sweet potato fries, etc. It all tasted so good but we were so FULL when we finished eating! We had the perfect amount of time to do all these things and not be rushed! After we ate, we dropped Brookie off at the airport-- I always hate goodbyes! (It was hard to say goodbye to Megan and Todd and those cute little boys this morning, knowing we wouldn't see them for 2 whole weeks!) I gave Brooke a tight squeeze and said goodbye, but then realized I'd see her in about 3 1/2 weeks when she and Ben fly into that same airport! Ben is picking her up from the airport tonight, and I'm SURE she will be GLAD to see him-- she REALLY missed him this weekend! Then, Bill and I began the LONG and HOT trek home to the reality of the heat of Arizona! We made it home around 9:30pm-- quickly unpacked and went to bed!! What a fun time with family-- even though everyone wasn't there, it was such a fun trip and we did so many fun things and made a lot of fun memories!
