last year's visit to the san diego mission sparked the idea in the mister & myself of beginning an adventure with our beauties; an adventure which we hope will create a lifetime of memories and a thirst for exploring beautiful & historical places. we are calling this little journey of ours "on a mission", our goal is to learn about, visit and explore each of the twenty-one missions lining california's golden coast. i believe it to be the perfect activity for a family like ours- it's affordable, educational, and full of beauty; a little something for everyone in the family. we absolutely LOVE chatting with our beauties about pretty much everything under the sun while we walk the grounds - from flowers, to missionaries, to tadpoles, to friends, to baby farts...we talk about it all.
this past sunday marked the last day of spring break for samirah and the weather was beyond PERFECT, so we took full advantage of the day and visited our second mission, mission san juan capistrano.

after exploring the mission for a few hours we headed to ricardo's place for some grub. the food there was fantastic! i'm still dreaming about the drool worthy made to order guacamole and tender steak fajitas. we were so happy with the service and the food there that we plan returning often.
after STUFFING our faces we headed to a nearby panaderia {bakery} to pick up some pan dulce {mexican sweet bread} for dessert. it was the perfect way to end our day!

if you are interested in "going on a mission" with your kiddos as well, this is a simple yet great
resource on the different missions.
