Merry Christmas!!!

Overall, a lovely, laid-back Christmas. Best gift: Rodgers and Hammerstein's complete DVD collection from Marc. Also best gift: fancy watch and Northface boots from the mom. Also best gift: lovely sweaters (2 of 'em) from my sweetest Molly. Now that the holidays are almost over, I am ready to go back to Florida so I can be warm for the next three months.

May is huge. HUGE! Haven't seen the horse in a few days because it is dreadful and raining here. Blech.

Back from San Diego...

Below are some pics from our wild trip to San Diego to visit Marc's family. We are finally home after an overnight delay in a Chicago snow storm. The people in the pics are Grand-Mere (Marc's grandma), Claude (his father), and Zac, Montana, and Dan (nephew, niece, and brother). We had the best time. My favorite part was that we went on a whale-watching sea-kayak adventure. While we didn't actually see any whales close-up, we had sea lions swimming around our kayaks and we saw seals that weren't in a zoo. It was, I think, even better than Disney World.

We spent lots of time with the family - the hosted a lovely brunch for us and fed us the best food and wine in San Diego. I got to eat fresh mussels, which taste nothing like Ohio imported mussels and had an overall practically perfect time. Okay, so the trip home was absolute hell...but it's in the balance that we find meaning.

I guess I haven't blogged since returning to Ohio. I've returned to Ohio. I miss all of my friends in Florida SO SO SO much and I can't wait to go back and watch Spyder at HITS! (He won reserve champion in Tampa this weekend).

Hope you are all well!
