Jay: Did you hear it snowed in Seattle yesterday?
Me: Suckers.
Jay: Ha ha. Glad we’re not there…
That’s right, we’ve been in the land of sunshine, golf, and silicon. Palm Springs. (that’s our own personal pool there in the background)
CJ has turned into a child of the water.
Also I have a new boyfriend (I think he was drawn by my double-chin). He’s a little prickly but oh-so-tough…
As you read this, we’re sadly winging our way home. I’d have told you sooner, but I prefer to keep the nefarious sneaking sorts in the dark. If they’ll steal my content, who knows what else they might steal if they knew our house was standing empty!
(I apologize if this revelation is, erm, anticlimactic. I never dreamed how creative you could be when guessing my BIG EXCITING secret!)

California suits you! Enjoy our fabulous weather.

Your new boyfriend really does look like a prick.
I’m just sayin’….

I bet that was a nice break for you! No snow in Palm Springs.
March 30, 2008 at 3:40 pm
Nope, never woulda guessed that one.
Hey, I think you’re plane is flying over my house right now! Hi! Do you see me waving?

Hey! And we’re in Arizona right now. Although it’s super windy here so we’re inside hanging out with our friends.
We had to drive through that nasty Seattle snow on Friday to get to the airport. I didn’t know if we were going to make it (over the passes that is). Hope you had a good trip!

It looks amazing. I am completely and utterly jealous!
March 30, 2008 at 4:30 pm
I’m glad you had fun. You look like you’re totally in your element. Maybe you’re not a Seattle girl after all??
March 30, 2008 at 5:16 pm
Oh you are TOO FUNNY! Great reveal!!!
p.s. I plan to get involved with Hot Mommas Know this week!!
March 30, 2008 at 8:51 pm
Ooooooh . . . you suck.
Have a great time though! :)

Oh yeah, that’s waaay better than any of our crazy guesses LOL!

Ahhh…Palm Springs! The perfect time of year to visit! We tend to go in July when it’s 425 degrees during the day.
Hope you had a great time!

I was the “why would you buy 7 bags of clothes” lady. I’m so glad to hear that you hadn’t done something so erratic. Hope you enjoyed your getaway!

I’d love to know how you liked it as a family vacation. Friends are considering that area. I always think of it for golfers, although if my kid had a pool, she’d be happy for weeks….
March 31, 2008 at 12:14 pm
oh. vacation?
how lovely for you.
and i’m glad you disproved my theory about the body-less head by posting an actual full-length body shot. otherwise … there always would have been lingering doubt…
March 31, 2008 at 12:51 pm
Ah, but now you are armed for a great April Fools Day joke…glad you are well and happy and that it was a GOOD surprise!
April 1, 2008 at 3:29 pm
