Raptor on 9th and 9th

I am so in love with this blog and I'm telling people that constantly. But the problem is that there is just to much I want to say and show you here. I still haven't posted any of the pictures from California yet and I was going to do that Thursday but I had to leave. Then yesterday I took the girls to the children's museum and I took a ton of pictures but unfortunately had to leave again, I even started to write about the experience and then I had to flee to get back to Lara's sisters house to eat cookies and juice and hear her existing man pursuing stories. So here I am today determined to post something! So I will talk about an experience I had an hour ago. I took Lucy to 9th and 9th one of my favorite intersections here because of the people that populate it and how not alone in the world I feel when I'm there. We were sitting in the car and Lara was complaining about her stomach and how that croissant she had just eaten was not agreeing with her. I was on the phone with Nick trying to decide if we were going to dye his hair tonight when all of a sudden Lara yelled "DINOSAUR!" I looked over and there just in the middle of someones front lawn stood a copper stature of a velociraptor. It was not what I expected but was so typical for that street. I can see Lara doing something if not the exact same thing on her front lawn. So we took some pictures and here I am posting and documenting this epic moment of my life. It's the small moments like that with Lucy I'm going to miss the most. She leaves for college next Saturday and with her is taking a piece of my heart. I love that girl so entirely and I'm going to miss her, she's not that far away but even being up the street is too far away in my opinion. So without further ado here is Lara and her dinosaur
