Mr. A and Family - a day in the park!
What a great time I had, following Mr. A and his delightful family as they played at the park! Elmo was hidden in my camera bag for safekeeping, while we slid down the slide and ran through the leaves. Mr. A loves to play with sticks almost as much as he likes to play with Elmo. (Aren't kids funny that way?! I was visiting some friends who report their kids' favorite toy lately is tupperware.) We really had a lot of fun!

Tag! You're it!
The lovely Whitney of Bel Kai Designs and I Know A Mom sent along a tag challenge: 7 facts about me.Here goes:
1.) Most people have a sweet tooth - I have a salt tooth, anything will do - pretzels, a little dash on watermelon (Yum!) and have you tried this? Or the White Chocolate with Black Sea Salt from Scoops?
2.) I bought a bouncy ball filled with water and pink glitter for my 3-year-old friend, Elliette, for her birthday - then bought one for myself - i'm completely entranced by the swirly sparkliness.
3.) We moved four times before I was in kindergarten, and moved 14 times before I entered college. I've lived up and down the West Coast, including Anchorage, AK, and a yearlong stint in Chicago. I've lived in Portland, OR most recently and now we've settled into Long Beach for the long haul (going on 5 years - it's a personal record!). And no, we weren't a military family, just restless, I guess.
4.) My sister and I both majored in English Literature in college - we are book nerds.
5.) I played Juliet in a college production of Romeo and Juliet, which surprises people because I'm known as being "quiet".
6.) I am a big fan of "fantastic" films - Amelie, Baz Luhrmann's Red Curtain Trilogy, Mirrormask - we just watched the Fall - such incredible visuals! And I've been enjoying Pushing Daisies (if you've never seen it, give it a chance - it's heading for cancellation.)
7.) I was born 2 months premature and weighed 2 lbs, 9 oz. The feet prints from my birth certificate are tiny, tiny, tiny.
Lovely Little Ones!
Had great fun with Ms. M and Ms. L and their family. We had a tea party, sat in front of a nice, warm fire, and enjoyed our time together. Their super-stylish mama always dresses them in such adorable dresses. LOVE it!
