Vacation!



Our house feels quiet this afternoon without our visitors! We enjoyed a lovely vacation from our routine with Rachel, Mom, and Dad in town from Utah. Our many activities included a trip to Costco (our fridge is stocked!), a couple of movie nights with Rachie, a sunset on the beach, a shopping trip to H & M in Oakland, watching Ryan surf at Pacifica, and lunch and ice cream at the traditional Fenton's Creamery. We jetted all over the Bay area and took in just about everything we could in a few days.

It was fun to show off our little nursery, and both Rachel and Mom got to feel the baby hiccuping! Dad was a huge help getting some final home repairs taken care of, Mom left me with homemade noodles for chicken noodle soup, and Rachel caught me up on John Mayer's latest albums! Thanks for coming, you guys!

  4. Families are definitely the best! I am so glad that they came out to see you! I put my vote in that your baby will be a girl . . . I love that you are not finding out! You two will be the best parents! I am so thrilled for you!

    I have to say . . . you will definitely be missed in South Bend. It is kind of weird thinking that you are not going back like we are!

  5. That view is just breathtaking. You're a lucky camper!

    I wish they had "touch" webcams. Then I could feel the hiccups too. :)
