Mom and Daughter trip to LA

Erin and I are going to LA for the weekend. We are so excited to break free from a house full of boys! We are going to have lunch at the American Girl Place, ride scary roller coasters at Six Flags, and then visit a mission in Santa Barbara for a 4th grade history project. To prepare for our trip, I made Mario a to do list like soccer practice, games, reading with twins, meetings, etc. This morning he wrote his own list. I will share his list since it is more entertaining than mine.

Dad's To Do List
  • Say goodbye to Terri and Erin (try to hold back tears)
  • Mope
  • Call Terri
  • Mope More
  • Call Terri
  • Make dinner (trying the best I can to hold it together)
  • Mope
  • Call Terri
  • Meeting (try to focus despite depression)
  • Call Terri
  • Mope
  • Go to bed (lie in bed hopelessly missing Terri)

Friday

  • Wake up and resume moping

I am sure he and the boys will have a great weekend. But it is nice to be missed so much.
