Sisterhood

I know this is my second post in a matter of moments but there is so much I am excited about and the two posts don't fit together well. I am sitting in a little hotel room in San Diego with my sister Elice. My sister Sarah is in an adjoining room with her family and we are enjoying a quick weekend getaway. I love this! I flew in yesterday and we went out to lunch where we girls became teenagers again. Laughing and playing around, being overly silly and obnoxious. We drove straight to the beach where I got schooled by the waves in my attempts to surf. I had so much fun and am banged up and bruised but I managed to get to my knees several times, even to my feet once but not long enough to let go with my hands. I finally quit when I didn't have the strength to push myself up any more. I love being with my sisters, it is so wonderful to strengthen these cherished family relationships.

  3. Mare,
    You look hot! That was the best trip. I couldn't believe how you took that beating by the waves. I love being tossed in the surf but I figured that I was the only one who really loved it. :)
    Thanks doing so much to make it happen. I love you.
