This weekend I got a chance to get away to Napa Valley to spend some time at my roommate Devin's house. Devin and I have live together for the past two years after meeting our freshman year when we lived across the hall from each other. Caty, Cory and I hopped on a bus Friday afternoon and met up with not one, not two, but THREE of my wonderful Burrow-mates: Devin, Lynne, and Erin. Lynne graduated in May and is currently on a plane to go back down to Costa Rica where she is teaching this school year. She flew in on Wednesday and was able to spend a few days with Devin before she headed back. Erin just finished up in December and moved home to the Bay area to start graduate school in Marriage and Family Therapy at the University of San Francisco.
The weekend was seriously perfect.
It was a wonderful change of pace to be curled up in BLANKETS (which I have been missing for the last month. Hotel comforters just don't cut it) and play cards and drink coffee and go wine tasting and meet celebrities (Aly and AJ, Disney Channel stars... so cool!) and read books and watch the Princess Diaries and have brunch at Erin's... It was slow and happy and full of love. Thank you SO much to the Whitmill and McLennon families for sharing their homes with us -- we were so blessed this weekend!
Our group has one full free-day in the city tomorrow (no school for Lunar New Year... Score!) and then two days in the classroom before we head out! SO weird!
(ps. wrote this yesterday but my computer died on me... free day, check. h&m shopping with caty and danielle, check. time for homework and relaxing!)
