14 years!

Wedded bliss...we've been doing it for 14 years.  Crazy!  I sure love this guy and am so thankful he is up for all the crazy we've been through and all the crazy yet to come.

I love you William James.

Babes in the woods

We like hiking.  Living over here in the East Bay has provided many opportunities to get out and enjoy the woods and trails.  Sometimes we end up going off trail or get a little lost but it is always and adventure.

What a surprise!

Today was going to be a busy day.  We had several family activities and they all seemed to be happening at the same time.  Early in the morning Will sent me a head of him to meet someone at a breakfast place in Hayward.  I thought he was buying something off craigslist and needed me to go ahead and check it out first?  Really, I had no idea why he wasn't taking care of it himself.  When I got there I waited inside for a few minutes and up walked my best friend, Anne.  I couldn't believe it--I just burst into tears!

Anne and her family moved out to Boston a year or so ago.  We hadn't seen each other in a while.  We spent a lovely morning catching up, crying, laughing and feeling less crazy.  Then we hung out in the car she was borrowing and put on makeup.  It was like a grown up sleepover...except it was in the morning/afternoon...we didn't sleep...and...actually it wasn't like a sleepover at all.  Never mind.  It was awesome and seeing her made me so happy.  Will had been orchestrating the visit with Anne for a couple of days.
