UCSD Family Weekend

Alan and I flew down to SD on a Friday morning for UCSD family weekend! Even though Eden was leaving that same day to go to Friendship Games, we got to see her that morning, walk her to class and have lunch with her in La Jolla! Always a treat to see our baby girl however short the time is. 



The rest of the weekend we toured campus, went to some seminars and Open Houses, got free stuff and food! and went to a UCSD basketball game. We even got to do the mini zipline that they have on campus for free!

We still talk and text. She tells us about her new friends, clubs, classes and it's like she just away on retreat or something.  I've stopped checking her location every hour but still worry when I see her out at 10pm.  She's been getting free groceries at the Basic Needs center on campus, which is open to all students! Check out her haul this week: Disney concert Took Emmy and Mahalia and Kaya to the Disney Worlds Collide concert on Saturday at Chase Center! Their first concert, so of course Jen and David wanted to be there and changed their plans to come with us! I only knew songs from the Descendants series but Emmy was fangirling over Malachi Barton. I loved seeing her reliving her childhood and belting out the Descendants songs that we both know and love. Even...
