Winter 2012 highlights
Listening
to music and painting during scene painting class.
Giggling
with the cast of Enchanted April when
things went wrong.
Jamming
with Dave and Jacob and sometimes Camilla.
Playing
with baby Kaitlynn in the mornings, and her joy at eating.
Talking
with Kyrie, Camilla, and Dave for hours over Olive Garden one Saturday night.
Laying
in bed with Jacob and watching the Beatles Anthology during the weekends.
Running
around at the Dry Farms in the moonlight and the snow, freezing our butts off
and falling over every few seconds.
Sitting
on the roof outside our bedroom window the few times it was warm enough.
Cuddling
with Jacob on lazy Sunday mornings before church.
The
fact that it wasn't super snowy miserable all semester.
San Francisco August 2012 Trip highlights
Five
hours in a science museum with Jacob.
Talking
genealogy with Opa and Oma, sifting through records and learning German
vocabulary.
Everyone
reading together in the living room in Fremont.
Watching
Jacob eat the best mango curry he's ever had in San Francisco.
Family
get-togethers with hot dogs, rolls, German talking and laughing.
Pic-nic-ing
on a river and wading in the water.
Riding
a motorboat really fast, pretending to be Harry Potter riding Buckbeak over the
lake at Hogwarts.
Naps
in our little attic bedroom in a cabin at Lake Tahoe, listening to the rain on
the tin roof.
Stargazing
with Jacob on the lawn of the Lake Tahoe cabin, talking about books and
watching bats fly over.
Scattergories
in the evening with parents and grandparents.
Rafting
a river, which included getting marooned on a rock under a bridge (and
un-marooning ourselves), and being randomly applauded by a small group of
people on the shore for having an umbrella.
German
tempers. Enough said. (Occasionally exacerbated by hearing loss.)
Walking
with Jacob through pinewood neighborhoods of charming cabins and imagining our
futures.
Nearly
dying of chocolate-covered raisin overdose.
Listening
to Steely Dan with Mom, Ray and Jacob as we drove around Emerald Bay.
Good times.

Okay, people need to tell me when they are in the Bay Area!
PS you're awesome!
I know! Sarah, I'm so sorry! It was such a short visit, but I should have called you.
Here's the stupid thing. In my head, you were actually still in England. Which I know doesn't make ANY sense, but that's what happened. I would have loved to see you. I might be there again this Thanksgiving!
I love that you thought I was in England! ha ha ha
I would love to see you! So whenever you are near me LET ME KNOW! =)
