This evening before heading to the grocery store with my mom, the following conversation took place:

Mom: We're headed to the grocery store, do you need anything?

Dad: Well if you're going to the kind of store that has paper towels, we need them.

Me: Mom, what kind of grocery stores don't carry paper towels?

Mom: I just ignore him sometimes!

Haha! I guess that's what you learn to do after being married 30+ years!

Dear my lovely husband,

Please bring home these gorgeous Kate Spade pumps from California.

You've caused me much grief by leaving me at home while you're enjoying the California sunshine! I think I've truly earned these shoes!

Please do the right thing and stow these beauties in your carry-on bag!

With love,

Your darling wife

Hubby and I...

Hubby is leaving for California this afternoon.

I am working all afternoon.

Hubby is going to be in California until Sunday.

I will be sleepless in Seattle until Sunday.

Hubby is going to San Diego to walk the board walk.

I'm going to the gym to run the treadmill.

He is excited.

I am not.

***Don't feel too bad for me because I'm going to Las Vegas in a couple of weeks!

Where oh where does the time go?

We've been:

-Working long days (10-14 hours)

-Waiting to close on a house (cross your fingers)

-Visiting my Grandma (she's recovering from surgery)

-Camping

-Boating

-Shopping (haha when do we not?!)

-Dreaming of our future home improvement projects!

-Enjoying the sunshine

-Wishing to see our nephew more (that's a hint Shawna!)

Until next time I'll leave you with a picture of our doghter, Bella!
