I've had two wonderful weeks away from the kiddos...although i catch myself talking about them quite a lot. I return to work tomorrow with much to do, i'm sure as we all can attest to. I spent Christmas with my family and one nice thing about being born on Christmas day is that you are always with family. We traveled down to Florida to spend time with my grandparents and my aunt, uncle, and cousin. We made many new memories and wrote down many quotes from my grandma...my sister and i slept on the pull out bed with THE BAR...it's become a tradition now to need a back adjustment every holiday. Right after getting back, my sis and I headed up to Atlanta and she was gracious enough to take me to the airport Monday morning at a very awful hour! I flew to San Francisco to visit with Grace and see what all this talk is about the West coast...it was wonderful! I wish I had seen Grace's life, family, and city before we lived together and did Mission Year....in fact, it would have been helpful to see everybody's place of existence PRE-mission year. Those girls are forever a part of me--it was as if we had never left each other and that is how i always feel when we get back together. We ATE, ATE, and ATE some more, visited Berkley, the bridge of course, went bowling, saw the Sound of Music Sing-A-Long (AHHHHMAZING), hiked, celebrated Grace's mom's birthday, ate too much crab to even tell you, i ate an oyster (steamed thankfully), played rock band, saw trolley cars and Lombard Street, walked along Pier 39 and Fisherman's Wharf, and countless other things! It was a great trip and more importantly, it was time with a dear friend.
Back to school tomorrow...
