Happy Belated Birthday Dad!

Last month I went to CA for the weekend on a free buddy pass that my parents neighbor gave me. July 14th was my Pops' Birthday and I went out to celebrate with them! The trip was great, although much too short. I was only there for the weekend---but I will take any time that I can!!! It was so nice to be able to see my parents and to celebrate Dad's Birthday! We spent some time shopping around for baby things, eating out and swimming! My parent's live in a beautiful private community with the most fantastic and relaxing parks, club house and HUGE pool! Yup- that's me floating in the pool, doesn't the shadow look funny!? The pool extends around the corner and has a couple of hot tubs, too. I discovered that I love to swim because I feel so weightless, and God knows I don't feel very weightless right about now!!! The photo of Dad about to take a dive into the pool shows it a bit more of the pool area, but then it wraps around the other corner again! If you want a vacation go visit my parents! (Mom and Dad- you're welcome for volunteering your house for vacations!) Hee Hee! I love the photo of Dad with Birthday cake- and Mom- it just isn't fair that you get so tan! I miss you and I love you both- thanks for everything while I was there!
