mother's day
i think the beautiful and talented alisa had a good day. she went to church with her dad. at 8 am. with the priest whose sermons are pointless streams of consciousness. she came home chipper. she got some bracelets we picked out in hawaii. g made her a really nice ceramic mug. b gave her an iou. cause the dork child left his mother's day creation at school. we joked about giving her an easter egg containing the gps coordinates of his locker. but ended up just telling her that we thought that. which i think was better. she ordered a chicken wrap for lunch. i fed the boys their usual peanut butter sammiches on homemade bread. then we took the ipad hiking. more about that later. the weather was perfect for blondes - cloudy and sometimes windy and cold. provided you're dressed appropriately. which we were. we hiked some of the steepest hills in almaden quicksilver county park. we found 3 geocaches. picked up a travel bug. and a tick. which got squished before it could bite me. we made salsa stromboli for dinner. with lots and lots of mushrooms. alisa helped while the boys bathed. cause we were running late. it must have been really yummy. cause everyone ate all of theirs. or maybe they were really hungry after hiking all afternoon. and oh yeah, my mother got a phone call.
