Slappy Has A Long Drive

This morning, Maddie, Jess, and Sam headed out on the road at 4:30am because they love to be driving when the sun rises. Ok, actually, this being Maddie's first long car ride, her parents were freaked out by the prospect of 6 hours of crying baby. This way they were guaranteed at least 2 1/2 hours of quiet before... Maddie's First Rest Stop - The Apricot Tree in Firebaugh, complete with fine figurines, an original Pac-Man and jerky.
Some time (and not too bad a drive) later, Maddie finally got to her BFF, Maya, in San Fran. After reconnecting, they began their new favorite game - "I reach my hand to your mouth - You lick it - We both laugh."
Then Kears and Sam played the same thing, but since we were in the Castro, noone thought anything of it.We all waited for Todd to come home from work, put the girls down, and remembered what it was like to have a dinner without having to clean off anyone's face, except one's own.
