A week on "vacation"

12 hours in a van with 2 kids under 5. Days of in a non-child, big dog, house. Pedicures. A birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. A perfect day at the zoo. A fresh start. A car accident that could have been REALLY bad. Fondue, chocolate, wine and girlfriends. Jacked up cupcakes. A Kick Ass children's museum. A city I was miserable in. Tokens and tickets. Familiar surroundings. A city I loved. 82 degrees in March. No shorts. Beatboxing children. Heavy BREAKABLE dishes. Princess haircuts. Mario Kart. Overeating. Not enough time. Welcome home poop.
