Day 41: Stuff.
This is the way I mark my territory. 
Day 42: Andrew.
My friend Andrew moved to Germany a few years ago. And he stayed there for a year, then he came back and I have been dying to see him. I spent almost every day with him while Lauren was at school. There is no way for me to explain how lucky I am to know him. He makes my life more fun, and he is the only other person I’ve met that knows all of the words to Aaron’s Party (Come Get It). I tend to associate cities with people, and Andrew is San Francisco.
Day 43. Davis
When I met the Birks family 10 years ago, I fell in love with 8-year-old Graham. He was funny and brilliant, and I have been so so so so honored to watch him grow up into one of the most caring, fun, loving people I’ve ever met. Lauren and I spent the afternoon/evening with Graham at his COLLEGE (oh gosh!!!!). He showed us the cows, and there was one numbered 2468 so naturally I named it APPRECIATE! 🙂
Day 44: San Francisco Blue
Andrew and I met our friend Thijs for walking around/hanging out/lunch. It was one of those days where it felt like every moment had been stitched together carefully and there was a soundtrack playing somewhere, but maybe so quiet I couldn’t hear. We went into some brain store and played games, then spent time in a Tea store, and I bought a pair of glitter shoes and Andrew found the chapstick he was looking for. It was a really, really really good day.
Day 45: Wildfire.
The Birks let me borrow their car to drive to camp for the weekend, and I was SO GRATEFUL for that. I rolled down the windows even though it was a little bit chilly and once my favorite song from last August came on shuffle, I put it on repeat and sang “CUZ A LITTLE BIT OF SUMMER’S WHAT THE WHOLE YEAR’S ALL ABOUT!!!!” at the top of my lungs, hoping it would somehow speed up the melting away of the winter chill.
umm it might be meant to be that we discovered each others blogs because I know all the words to Aaron’s party as well 🙂 hahaha
Gorgeous pictures! Looks like a nice couple of days!
