The reason we went to San Diego is because we got last minute word that my Dad and Carol were going to be in town. Carrie and I recognize a choco-hooter when we see one so we jumped in the car and headed west. It was very nice to see everyone we love and it was also great to be back in a city we love.
Owen's getting the run-down from Grandpa. Owen got a chance to spend quite a fair amount of time absorbing Grandpa's pearls of wisdom. I think they both enjoyed that.
The only sad part of this trip was that it had to be over so soon. Everyone was in great spirits and I know we had a wonderful time seeing everyone. A few hours with family is just enough time to remember how much you miss them.
Nick and Tanya made this trip an impromptu family reunion. The think I love about Nick is he lives in the moment. I don't think I've ever known someone who is as up for anything at any given moment. These are two very special people and I am so happy for them and to be a part of their life together.
Watching people in an inner tube get sprayed by people on the sidelines brings smiles to everyone's faces.
Somehow shoulder rides on Uncle Nick's shoulders are more fun. Tough to say why.
Quote of the trip:
Ed: There they are across the street in that playground. Nick, why didn't you see them?
Nick: I'm tall, I don't have X-ray vision.
Speaking of favorite quotes, if you're curious about the post title, it's an Al Bundy quote.

What a treat to have you guys and Nick and Tanya in our physical lives for what amazingly was only half of one day. I don’t know that my senses have ever been so aware for 12 hours. We were in contented bliss. Now that we are home and in reflection mode, I have a better understanding of what my grandfather called “contented as a cow chewing her cud” . That last sentence was thrown in so you wouldn’t think I was going soft!
Nick's quote made us all laugh. He's so wise. Good to see Owen and Happy Grandpa sharing thoughts. Love, Trina
