A few weeks ago we spent a wonderful, long weekend in California. We flew into San Jose and drove up to San Francisco for a few hours. After some tacos here and some ice cream here we made the long trek down to San Luis Obispo for the rest of the weekend. We ate delicious food, spent time on the beach, and played bocce while tasting delicious wines. It was the perfect beach for River's first sand experience (I'm surprised there's any sand left after he ate so much) and we made many, many memories--including River's first flight (he did great). We used to do trips like this quite a bit more frequently, but we have started to come to the realization that with a baby joining our family, these little excursions are far more tiring than they used to be. We certainly don't want to forget about them all together, we just want to be more thoughtful and intentional about our time away from home.
Weekends like this are so rejuvenating. Excited to get the next one on the calendar...
