For Christmas, Trilby and my Mom had Micah and my names.  They collaborated and got us a night away at the Park Hyatt Aviara in San Diego, with all of the kids watched.  There is nothing more we could have loved.  We headed down Friday afternoon and walked into a really nice resort.

Our room was nice and big — and really clean!

And our view was beautiful.

but seeing as I am not one to just hang in a hotel room for long, we made arrangements to meet up with Megan and Bryan to head out to a delicious dinner, and then get over to K2 for some racing.

We all went to “Market” and had an amazing three course meal.
My albacore tar tar was amongst my favorites.

Then after we were as full as you can imagine, we went to K2 racing.
I was talking so much smack, because I knew I would wipe Micah out.
Unfortunately, the end scores that were posted for all to see made me eat my words.
I seriously don’t understand?
He looked like he was just cruising around, while I was whipping around every corner like a speed demon!
To make it interesting, we put a little wager on the race.
Everyone put in $10, and winner took all.
Congrats B.

That night we went home sore and edified.
But right as we were closing our eyes, I had a tooth start to give me problems.
Too bad for me that it was giving me real problems….4 Advil problems.
-
I finally fell asleep, and slept in until 10am.
After we got up and got dressed, we headed down to one of the best sushi lunches I’ve ever had.
It is a tiny shop with an old married couple making the sushi.
The word is that if you don’t get there within an hour or two after they open at 10:30, they sell out and close their doors.
Micah and I sat down to eat some of it, and it was so fresh and delicious.
-
Then we packed up some of it, stopped for a Big Gulp and headed to the movies for a few back to back good ones.
Jack Ryan was great — full of action and a good story line.
Saving Mr. Banks was great, but an emotional roller coaster.
And let’s just say that I am not the only one who had red eyes leaving that film.
-
Finally before we headed home, we stopped at one more place to eat some yummy food - Pamplemousse.
The food was good, but not like the night before.
-
We literally had the funnest time together.
We didn’t have any cares but each other.
It was a blast.
But we were quickly back to reality when we called Dr. J. Packer and he said he would meet us at his office that night for an emergency root canal.
Nothing like a root canal with your husband as the assistant to get a girl out of “carefree” mode!
