back in california

NaBloWriMo day 24.

I’m in California now. Jeremy and I are playing tag team taking care of Kaweah. Kaweah doesn’t mind as long as she gets to sleep on the bed. My flight out was uneventful save for a little turbulence. Whenever I am in an airport I always do a lot of people watching. I think kids are the most entertaining.


these two cute little boys in the next car were waiving to me



Sunday is my grandma’s 88th birthday! She looks awesome and she was very animated and happy tonight. Well, she’s animated and happy in general. My grandma is the coolest.

grandma tells us a story



Hope you are all having a grand weekend. xxoo

    Jen, she’s beautiful! I see a lot of you in her or is it her in you?
    Happy Birthday, Grandma!
    Do you get to give her a red envelope or is it only given to kids and/or those younger to you?

    Happy Birthday to your grandma. It is wonderful that you spent the day with her. My grandma was pretty darn cool herself, it must be part of the grandma job description.

    Manisha – well, it’s supposed to be the elder relatives give the younger ones red envelopes. So it’s my job to send them to my niece and nephew :) My grandma is really really lovely – even more so from the inside. She has a generous heart :)

    Lisa – thanks Mom :) Love you!

    Tartelette – xxoo

    Donna – absolutely!!
