Labor Day weekend and we get Nate for three days. He needed a day to study, so yesterday I tired the kids out at the "teacup park" and then we road tripped to Yountville via Highway 128. It was a gorgeous drive, and I was glad Kai woke up in the middle of it so I had somebody to share the views with. Lake Berryessa was breathtaking; Kai woke up just in time to see it and while still half asleep said, "It's the Island of Sodor!" He loves the twists and turns of California backroads and loves going up and up and up and up. We came home and the kids ate dinner on our back patio. Saturday we went to the Davis farmer's market, where we indulged in fresh figs and fresh orange juice, Kai played in the playground and Nina stared at dogs. Saturday night we enjoyed an evening with the Belnaps and Kai and Nina played joyfully with their four kids. Nina loved having stairs again and spent a lot of her time climbing up and - I think - trying to fall down a few. Kai loved scooting around the backyard with different helmets on his head.
Nina can now fit into the beautiful dress Jenni Jackson made for Nina. Here it is.
