Sunday was a quiet down time day- everyone was so tired after the long day on Saturday. We had a great day at Chrissie and Bill's. The sunshine was wonderful- the warm weather has been so rejuvenating- especially for Cami and Klas who are in the dead of winter back in Stockholm.
Klas enjoyed playing with Ivy, Brianna's daughter
I took Monday and Tuesday off since Cami is here... so not going to work was a treat in itself!! Monday we went to San Francisco Zoo with Brooke's family. Another day in paradise with amazing weather!! I had so much fun with McKenzie and Brynn too at the zoo. Kenzie was afraid of the goats in the petting zoo.... but from a distance she loved all the other animals. After leaving the zoo and saying good-by to Brooke's family- Cami, Klas and I headed over to the beach- just across the road from the zoo. I have said it before but the ocean fills my soul! The warm weather and beautiful ocean was perfect. After driving back to Sacramento- we went to dinner at Kelly and Marcus's, who weren't able to come to the engagement party. It was fun to catch up with them and spend time with their family.

Brynn was all smiles as usual!

Cami made friends with the goats!
After the zoo we went to the beach.
It was an absolutely gorgeous day!!!
Today was a landmark day!!! We went to lunch with friends of mine from work. Everyone hears me talk about Cami and Klas and it gave them a chance to meet them. Then after lunch Cami and I went off to look at wedding dresses. Lo and behold-- she found the dress!!!!! We are so excited! It is absolutely gorgeous and fits her personality exactly! We didn't really expect that to happen but I was dying to be involved somehow since most plans will be made 7,000 miles away... so we thought we would go look at dresses. She knew sort of what she wanted and had already looked at some. I can't spoil the surprise so I there will be no description of the dress. For those of you that can't come to Sweden in August - you will have to look at my blog after the wedding!!!
Tomorrow is back to work. Cami and Klas have places to go and people to see. So for a few days it is back to reality for me. But I will see them some more next week. I am in heaven when I can be with my kids. It is especially fun for me to have Cami and Klas with Brooke and her family all at the same time. I guess with Ian in Dallas, Cami is Sweden, and Brooke in Menlo Park the times I will have them all together will be far and few between. For now I have the wedding to look forward to for that! I just hate that my job interferes with my personal life!! When I win the lottery or more realistically, when I retire, I will be able to have that freendom. For now I will take what I can get as far as time with my kids.
