Eliza and her best friend Kate.  These girls are soooooo adorable together!  They giggle and follow each other around and then hug when it is time to say bye-bye. 

 We went to the zoo on Presidents' Day and thought about all that we have thanks to our brave forefathers. 

We found an off-the-beaten-path crane exhibit to have lunch and take a picture.  The picture above will have to suffice for our family picture.  We took a bunch and this was the best one. 

 Chub-chub.

 Eliza was a little tired by the end.  Both kids fell asleep in the car on the way home so we drove around the USD campus (very beautiful), downtown La Jolla, the cove and up that hill (what's it called again?) while they slept.  It was a fun day!

 I made a frog towel for Coulson. 

We went to the REI used gear sale yesterday and found a thule (rooftop luggage carrier/spare trunk) for a fantastic price.  Cody played with it all afternoon and fit our double stroller in it and still had tons of room for a suitcase or two, sleeping bags and bedding.  It is seriously like an additional trunk on top of the car.  We are excited to plan a road trip for this summer.
