When We Were Honeymooners

Four and a half years ago Jamie and I got married. We went to California for the last part of our Christmas break honeymoon. We brought some traveling games along for fun: Mancala and Tangoes. We, unlike many married couples, can only handle the pressure of one another's undivided attention for a short while. So we bought these games to facilitate the large amount of time we had to spend together. (Consider this honeymooning true confessions: we bought games. What did you do?)

Next week we will be leaving for San Diego for two weeks!! We are taking our children so this will be a vacation of the family kind. Thankfully, we won't have to figure out what to do with ourselves. They'll help determine that.

For good measure I am bringing those games. I am going to do my best to get him to play some games with me. I don't think we've really played since our honeymoon. Because he hates to lose.

Forgot to tell you that after we played at pv mall yesterday, we went into kb toys for a minute. All of their travel games (battleship, candy land, etc.) are on sale. Just in case.

On our honeymoon...like any good wife would, I made Brian paint watercolor paintings in a moleskin journal, to recap our days. It was really lame and even though he's an artist by trade, he drew horrible pictures just to spite me.
