Back to School!

Just in case anyone thought we had fallen off the planet...we did, but now we are back! It's been an incredibly overwhelming 6 months. Someday I will catch up on what we have been through, but for right now it's about the future. School starts tomorrow and the girls are really excited about 3rd and 5th grade! I am excited about PTA...so much to do, but it's going to be great fun.

Lauren is thrilled about following me around. No school for her just yet, but I may change my mind as we go through this next year. Happy to be back in the blogging world. You may have not missed me, but I missed you!

BACK TO SCHOOL!!! HERE WE GO!!!

Wicked!

John and I just spent a fantastic weekend in San Francisco. All I asked for for Christmas were tickets to see Wicked and wouldn't you know... the closest place it was playing was in a familiar city. It was an incredible show and we had such a wonderful time. Highlights of the weekend were eating awesome Japanese food, staying in the beautiful Omni Hotel, visiting with two of my favorite and oldest friends from San Leandro, Ghiradeli Square for the best hot fudge sundae around, the show and dinner with John and Susan, and a catch up with one of my college roommates that I hadn't seen in 12 years! I don't mean to make my kids feel bad, but the other great part was just being with John! Life is a little easier when you aren't worried about three other little people's needs.
