Back from the Woods

Just got back from the forest. It was a pretty nice time there. The weather was great, and the views were pretty damn good. I was having a pretty relaxing trip for the first 5 or 6 miles or so on the way up to the peak, but then on the way down I was just booking it trying to get back to camp. My arm was exhausted and I didn’t sleep very well in the tent. This morning I got up at like 6:30 and just took off home.

For some reason or another, several people on the trail kept on asking me if my trekking poles were arrows… weird.

Emily’s visit.

Today, Vince woke up all grumpy and Emy helped out by coaxing him to eat breakfast. It was kind of a slow start to the day, but we made it to the story time at the library. Emy took some nice pictures of Vince dancing. Edda has been very fussy the past 2 days or so, just screaming and crying and arching her back. All her back teeth are coming in and I think she is in some pain.

After story time, we went to Neko for a Japanese lunch and Vince spilled a glass of orange juice and broke the glass and Edda fussed and made a mess around her high chair.

Then we went to the Barnes and Nobel and had some coffee and treats. We then headed home and the kids fell asleep.

Emy went home on the 4:50 train and we are madly eating leftovers and doing laundry to prepare for our trip on Saturday.
