HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my baby sis, WIL!

Hope all your birthday dreams come true!
I love you!

Aside from LA traffic, yesterday's drive up was okay. It took me 7 hours with a half hour stop in Kettleman City for lunch, gas, and diaper change. I had Ashlyn in the the front seat this time...and she was so much happier. She enjoyed the scenic view and being able to see what I was doing. I also liked being able to see what she was doing too.
I expect to get some critisms for having her sit up front, but I just want to make it very clear that it's not something I do very often (if ever). Though it's not recommended, it's NOT illegal. The cool thing about my car is that if there's not enough weight in front, the front passenger airbag automatically disengages. *thumbs up*

Today I spent the day with Ivy...running errands and shopping for Sarah's Bridal Shower. The weather turned cold and it rained for a good portion of the day. Much to our relief, Ivy and I got a lot done. =)

Tonight, my family, Ivy, and Oli got together for dinner at our favorite little hole-in-the-wall for Wil's birthday. My brother-in-law brought a couple of bottles of his special reserve and we had a grand feast.

After dinner, we had coffee and hung out at Wil and Tony's. Sis, Wil, Ivy, and I watched a couple hours of "I Love The 80's" on VH1. I love that show! hehehe
