Had nine people around our table tonight for an almost impromptu Easter dinner. Was only planned since yesterday afternoon.

After a morning spent shopping, I had lunch with my mom, brother and nephew at Casa de Reyes in Old Town. May just be the best tacos in town. The waitress was as Mexican as Betty White, which kind of took away from the authenticity.

Left the comfort of my cozy castle to pick up a Mac Mini for my mom, t-shirts for my nephew, work shirts for my brother, coffees for us all, and soccer cleats, also for my nephew. All before lunch.

My brother and nephew arrived late on a drive down from Vegas. They will be in town for almost a week. I may have to don my Captain Tour Guide outfit once more. Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.
