Happy New Year!

Happy 2013!  The holidays just blew by. We spent Christmas in San Luis Obispo packed in with all kinds of family and dogs. Amazing crab, a really fun PCPA show, kayaking on the lake, creamed pearl onions, hiking on the beach – all the good things.

Then, Rob and I packed up with Jean and Trent for a week vacation in Seattle, Vancouver and Whistler. We visited museums, stayed with old friends, cross country skied at the olympic park and even tried some biathlon shooting. So, so cool (and also literally very cold)!

I’m happy to be back home after all the travels. This New Year will be full of all kinds of new adventures and challenges. We started it off right with our first dinner party (with china and silver even) on Sunday night.
