4.26.10: Where's Peter?

Somehow we really lucked out this weekend. Nicole was going to a wedding near LA and needed a date. Kari to the rescue! Okay, so maybe it didn't work quite like that - but somehow Nicole ended up coming to LA for less than 48 hours this weekend. We sure crammed in all that we could. Getting some serious girlie time, baby time and of course the wedding. Again my super wonderful husband took over watching the girls for a majority of the weekend (even a solo bedtime, something we try to avoid at all costs).


This was the greeting Nicole got from Stella in the morning - snaggletooth and all.


Nicole and I at the wedding overlooking the ocean in an area neither of us has been, but is too beautiful not to find an excuse to revisit.

Of course saying goodbye was hard, it always is - but this time we knew we had another surprise on Monday. Dan was coming to visit. Not actually coming to vacation, but a visit nonetheless. He had to fly into LA for work and was able to stop by on his way up to the telescope. For some reason, I forgot to take pictures the whole weekend (those above are from Nicole's phone). I think I was too excited to see our fellow Chicagoans. After seeing both Dan and Nicole (a huge treat) it left us wondering, where's the remaining third of the Marrones? Soon enough (for now we will settle for the picture below). We can't wait for September!
