We are in the process of upgrading our basement. Nothing too serious. No major construction. Just moving some things around, throwing out a lot (I love a good purge – I’m not a very good hoarder), and getting a new couch. B has always hated the couch in the basement and I’m almost certain that’s why we don’t spend very much time down there anymore. The basement is intended to be our comfortable place and if the couch isn’t comfy than that will never do. 

We moved spaces around and now we just wait for our new couch to be delivered. I will post pics when it’s complete. 

For now, we have a big open space in the basement which makes for an awesome sleepover space. The girls each had a friend over and B set up air mattresses for them and they had a pretty great movie night. That B sure is a great dad and knows how to make a sleepover extra fun. I think the girls are going to be sad when the couch arrives and they don’t have that big open space for air mattresses and cartwheels. 

Annabelle’s friend Molly recently moved to Colorado and we couldn’t resist introducing her to Casa Bonita. 

We had a great table with the ultimate view of the divers. They climbed right up the cliffs by our table to do the dives. It was pretty spectacular and the girls were definitely wowed. 

The sopapillas are the big hit on the menu.

That face! Oh, that B. Not sure if he frowning about his obstructed view, eating at Casa Bonita, or all of the above. 

We all survived and no one got sick (that is not always the case when eating here). We can cross that off our summer to do list and give our stomachs a break until next year.
