The day is nearing the end, kids are fed and relaxing with a cartoon, and I am sitting out on my deck. Listening to some music.... thinking about the west coast. There is nothing like the west coast. I thought a lot about Newport Beach, CA. This is where Joel and I honeymooned. I would give anything right now to take another trip there with him, now after almost 11 years of marriage. Now that we have marriage mostly figured out, and now that life just gets better and better.... it would be a perfect trip.

Jesslyn just had a bug on her shirt. Instead of wiping it away, she spit on it. Nice.
