It is 15 degrees in Buffalo right now...

I am so glad I'm not there!!

I'm visiting my little sister and her husband in sunny San Diego.

We are doing lots of what we do best...eating!

It was Laura's birthday on Saturday.

Whenever I visit my sisters or they visit me, the husband gets booted to the guest room/couch, so we can have SSOs (Sister SleepOvers). We snuggle and giggle and talk all night long, just like the old days. Yesterday, I said to Sam, "I'm sorry that I took your wife away from you for a few days." His response: "That's okay...I needed a break." :)

Looks to me like it might be Laura who needs the break!

I am having so much fun here, and the party's not over yet. Tomorrow, we are going on a morning whale watching cruise, and then in the evening, I fly to St. Louis to see my older sister, her husband, and their adorable little son. I am going "sister hopping" across the country. Thank goodness for Southwest's free tickets program!

I love having a February Break from school! This is the life!!

Looks like you visited La Jolla I'm guessing... maybe? I grew up in that area, and my family still lives there, so I am SO jealous of you right now! I miss the beach dang it. Tell California "hi" for me!

Oh, and I also have two sisters and the husbands TOTALLY get the couch (or air mattress as the case may be) when ever we visit each other. Aren't sisters the greatest!
