My younger sister, Kristina, turns 40 this week....
so my sister, Heather and I flew out to California this past weekend to help her celebrate!
We spent the weekend in a beach house in San Diego...
and had a great time hanging out in the sand and the sunshine together!
We got pedicures, massages, went on long walks, went shopping, hung out at the beach, ate good food, played games, and in general had a fun and relaxing weekend.
A few more of her friends also joined in the celebrations and we laughed to realize that together we'd left a total of 48 children at home with their daddies to be there that weekend.
(I'm the one on the far left in the picture below)
Except for the crazy windstorm on Sunday night, we had perfect weather the entire weekend...
(I'm fourth from left in this picture)
I missed being with my family, but loved the time away and the opportunity to soak in the beauty of my surroundings...
the beauty of the area, the beauty of spending time with my sisters, and the beauty of friendships anew.

Congrats to Madeleine, the AML fighting wonder girl (she's on her third go-around fighting against this horrible disease), who was the only one to correctly guess my location! I haven't figured out your prize yet, but stay tuned for something!
