Friday Field Trip

It's fun to meet up with a friend that you haven't seen for a while. Add a mini photo field trip to an area you've never explored and yummy cupcakes to make a terrific day.

Veronica like to take pictures and practice our photography so this time we headed over to Belmont Shores to find a cupcake shop. We used the GPS and that thing will get me there but it doesn't have common sense to get me to the nearest major street and then direct me from there. Nope, it decided to direct us through the local neighborhoods that had us turning and twisting and it definitely added about 15-20 minutes to our travel time. Bah! But we made it before the cupcake shop opened so we walked down the street toward the ocean. What a cute neighborhood. Lovely Spanish homes with great landscaping. We had fun with the variety of flowers and plants in the yards.

But then there is the cupcakes. Oh my, about 12 different flavors that looked so yummy. I ended buying half a dozen because I had to share with the kids. Hector doesn't have a sweet tooth at all. If they made a salty meat cupcake that would be another story. I had the butter toffee cupcake which was divine.

Very cute boutiques sprinkled among some chain stores and lots of restaurants especially Lebanese so that was intriguing to me. I have to make a mental note to try it.

Veronica and I always find something to shoot and talk so time flies by. We always say we need to do this more often and I'm gonna make sure we do.

Such concentration at basketball.

A cute litte prize.

We ended the night with the school fair with the kids. They rode down the big inflatable slide and played a few games but mostly enjoyed time with their friends and playing on the school equipment.
