Texas update

It's been more than a week since we went to Texas, and I still haven't blogged about it. So here it goes :]

We left our house Friday evening around 5. Dad drove and we went to Denny's for dinner at Blythe, CA around 10pm. Burnt my tongue from super hot coffee before I drove across 2 state lines, Cali-Ariz & Ariz-New Mexico. [I hate the "photo enforced areas" in Arizona btw. You HAVE to slow down to the speed limit, if not you'll have a nice picture of your car speeding -__- ] Drove from 11pm-5am straight, just stopping for gas. I knocked out soon after we switched and we finally got to El Paso a little after 9am. From there, still drowsy from the long drive, I had to the Fil-Am church before Sweetie&Cutie had practice for their youth play.

Oh yeah, I should probably mention who we were visiting. The Lasala's at El Paso, TX
They are Tito Junar, Tita Jasmine, Sweetie, Cutie, Honey, and Apple.
& of course, those are just the kid's nick names.
It was good to see them, I missed them, hadn't seen them since they visited us at the house in panorama city last spring break.

So we got back from the church at around 1pm. I knocked out at around 3pm, since I barely got any sleep the night before from all the driving. Felt good& rested when I awoke to a quiet house. Turns out they left to eat at Sonic's and to their Worship practice without me. But it was all good, I needed the rest anyways.

For dinner we went to this mexican restaurant called El Taco Tote. I was pretty excited because from all the times that we've been to El Paso, which is like right next to the boder, we've never actually eaten mexican food while we were there. I liked the condiment bar that they had. All the [mexican] spices, sauces, condiments you could think of were there, preetttyy cool. The food was pretty good, had some chips& salsa and about 5 tacos. Though my still burnt tongue annoyed the heck out of me while I was eating, totally satisfied that night.
