The Story Of Us

Around the same time last month we started our winter break by flying to Costa Rica. It was an adventure of a lifetime!  We took a red eye flight on the 21st of December landing in San Jose bright and early on the morning of the 22nd. Picked up our rental and drove for 3 hours straight to our first destination. GPS worked perfectly, we didn't have too many issues with connectivity and the roads were in decent condition.  When we were home the forecast in Costa Rica did not look so good. Thanks to global warming the rainy season which was supposed to end in November seemed to be extending far into December. We saw a solid 7 days of rain ahead of us and while we were not happy about it we were prepared to make the best of it.  San Jose had been nice and sunny but the closer we got to our first destination the rain started to pick up. Our first destination was La Fortuna home to the Arenal Volcano (active, last eruption in 2010), Chato Volcano (dormant), the La Fortuna Waterfall as we

H celebrated his 10th birthday this week. The week unfortunately was full of hiccups. :( He turned 10 on Tuesday.. being a school day we kept it simple and went out for an early dinner.. restaurant of his choice, Cheesecake Factory. On Wednesday H got braces and was miserable all day.  Thursday was fine.  Friday he threw up in school, in the school parking lot and again at home. More misery for the birthday boy. He did muster up enough strength to sit at the kitchen counter and observe me decorate his birthday cake.  Every year we order an undecorated Wegmans birthday cake and then decorate it ourselves. He ordered a vanilla cake with a lemon custard filling.     The zhuzhed up version. The party was going to be held at a monster mini golf place hence the monsters and eyeballs.  Later we were having family over for dinner and H insisted he want to serve brownies with dinner. Insisted he wanted to make them from scratch and they must included chopped up Halloween candy. He was too sick
