Yes, I guess I am one of those people who sees something along the curb in front of someone's house and goes back to get it!! On my walk, a few months ago, I saw this chair and thought it might be perfect for my bedroom.
I've been looking for a long time, but it's such a small space, everything was just too big. This one fit's perfectly. I finally found some material that worked with the rest of the room, and Lori Stricklin helped me recover it. It's perfect!!!
Because of the uncertainty of a family full of teenagers and young adults, not to mention Todd's shoulder surgery, it was decided to make our vacation low key and one people could come and go as needed. San Diego it was!
Tues--Old Town--The Mormon Battalion was a hit. And dinner at out favorite Mexican restaurant with homemade tortillas was a perfect was to kick off this vacation. Sad to say, we got there kinda late, so no time to look around or get the delicious root beer.
Wednesday--La Jolla--Most days, my Todd worked from home for the morning, and then joined in the fun after lunch. This morning, it was just as well since we kayaked the La Jolla sea caves and that would have been impossible for him with his shoulder. It was so much fun. The best moment might have been when Tayson jumped out of skin when "big daddy" quietly swam near our kayak and barked at us. Or it might have been the sight of me trying to get out of my kayak at the end when we washed up to shore. I felt like a beached whale. And probably looked as graceful!!
The most dramatic moment goes to Amy when a seagull swooped down and took her entire sandwich from her hands and flew off with it, scratching her cheek in the process. By the end of the day it was a giant bald eagle with razor sharp talons as she narrowly escaped with her life!!
The rest of the day was spent playing in the water (I actually got in!), surfing, reading, lying in the sun, playing volleyball, and Claire eating with her head covered so another bird doesn't attack. How I wish I had a picture of that!!
Friday--Pacific Beach--or PB as the locals call it! But first, in the morning, the boys went golfing.
