This past week, while much of the country was battling ice and snow and fog and storms, my husband and I were enjoying heavenly weather--balmy 70's, clear blue skies, bright beautiful sunshine---in the Capitola/Santa Cruz area. My in-laws came down and stayed with the kids for three days and three nights while we lounged and biked and relaxed and ate and ate some more. My mom pitched in on one of the days while my in-laws had other plans, so a big hearty
THANKS to all the 'rents!!! Especially since the entire time all my kids were sick with fevers and coughs. That's true sacrifice right there....
Anyway, it was a fabulous get-away and I'm ready to do it again next week. I'm not so sure that there's a ringing endorsement for that plan coming from the parent department, though! Okay, okay. We'll do it in a
couple of weeks.
