Yesterday morning, Max took Ezra out on some errands.  Evie was napping, so it was just Mama and L.  She asked if she could do some painting, which I gladly agreed to.  It's much easier doing painting with only 1 kid to keep track of!  Sweet girl went through eight pieces of paper, before we finally put the paints away - I think she could have painted all day long!  

 Our weekend went by too fast - that's what happens when your husband has a weekend duty.  I'll be honest and say that I was not overly excited to send him off this morning.  I just wanted another day with him, but oh well.  It made yesterday all the sweeter, right?!  We had a lazy day, with plenty of snuggling and movies and chocolate treats.  It was nice to just hang out together, with no agenda - especially after what felt like a long, busy week.  

 We welcomed our first houseguests - yay Aimee and Becky! - just over a week ago, and it was SO much fun having them here.  We went on a lot of adventures - to the beach, to the Fisherman's Wharf, to the Aquarium, to San Francisco - plus, basically had girl's night every night...lots of chocolate desserts and ice cream, a little too much moscato, and an introduction to New Girl.  It was sad seeing them on their way, and I think that's why I've been in a bit of a funk the last few days - oh the bittersweet sting of having dear friends here to visit!  Makes me cherish, and then miss that time that much more.   

I am excited to share pictures of our adventures this week.  I uploaded them earlier, and it was fun scanning through them!  But for now, I am off to lay in bed and watch New Girl...
