Family Vacation
We went on our first family vacation the week before Thanksgiving. It was kind of last minute, which is the best way, because then you only have to wait a couple of weeks rather than a couple of months. We stayed in a small house in Mill Valley, which is north of San Fransisco across the bridge. We had a great time going to the beach, hiking to this lookout point of the Golden Gate Bridge, going to a children's museum and eating some good local food. The days were great, but the nights were awful. I guess Sam doesn't like his port-a-crib. He was waking up every 2 hours. We stayed 3 nights and were so exhausted and ready to come home. The kids said they liked going in the hot tub and roasting marshmellows over our fire pit the best. We could have done that anywhere.

So fun. Can't wait to see you.
Ahhhh. Family vacations are a two-edged sword, aren't they? We just went on our first family trip in August to Washington D.C. and beforehand, I was petrified of the plane ride, the time-change, and sleeping in a hotel room with Peter (when he usually only sleeps in his crib). It turns out that many of my fears were very well-founded! There were a lot of stressful moments, but we also had a lot of fun and made a lot of memories too.
I'm glad you had such a nice time.
