Where in the world is Angel’s Camp?

We certainly didn’t know when we booked but we loved it once we got there. Another trip with my baby and another hundred really awesome memories that we got to share together. I think we did have river rafting, although I do have to say that I’d like to kick up the next class river we go to up a notch or two. I promise to not spin the raft like I did with Yoshi. Down in front, lapids, lapids. I jest, I jest. Loved that guy.

Egyptian Panda are invading the Bay area…

It’s nice knowing that we just have to go attend weddings from now on. Danny and Nada put together a remarkable wedding that had all the elements of a fairy tale. We also managed to combine it with a pretty kick-butt trip around Northern California. Granted the trip almost didn’t happen but thanks to your quick thinking and convincing voice we managed to actually leave San Francisco and start our trip. Without that we wouldn’t have gotten to experience and buy the worlds biggest and cheapest (per lbs) peppers I’ve ever seen to date. Look at those things. Your love of the pepper has crept over to me and boy I sure do like that it did. While it sounds cheesy, I felt like we really bonded on this trip. We had hours in the car to just sit back and talk and not talk and find out things that we never knew about each other. We expanded our love of wine at Artesa and even managed to get some freebies out of it. From Napa we rode your favorite car ever, the PT Cruiser convertible with the top down into Caleveras County to see evidence of what I would have to imagine is the world record for leaping frogs.

Happy Belgian Independence

Yes, I know that the 21^st is when most Belgian’s celebrate but we had to be creative. What a night this was. You made some snacks and decorations that you can’t even find in Belgium! We’ll forget the fact that I permanently scared my arm due to ‘the meatball incident’. Rule #1 of the meatball incident, you don’t talk about the meatball incident. I wish I had better pictures of this night but someone stole my camera and just took pictures of themselves the entire night. Thank you for marrying me so that I could enjoy living in this country and not being deported, that’s really sweet of you.
