Early Valentine's Day 2-12-10

What do you do when all 3 kids are gone for the day??? Why, go out for an early kid-free Valentine's lunch, of course! So off we went to one of our favorite places to go, Jaffa Cafe in SLO. It is such a treat to eat there! Lamb schawarma, pita & hummus, & for dessert, a piece of baklava! What a wonderful, delicious meal.

Thank you to my valentine of 25 years+ for your love through thick & thin, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness or in health, to love and to cherish 'till death do us part. I love you Honey!

2-11-10 Our Little Rocker

Maddie LOVES to play on daddy's base guitar.

She was even singing as she was playing!

Update:

I guess I really shouldn't blog when I'm tired!

This should have been "bass" not "base" & to top it off, the guitar is not daddy's bass guitar- this is Matt's 6 string electric guitar! BUT, she WAS singing as she was playing. I know I got that right.
