The highlight of the past month is our getaway for two.  My parents and brother took time off from work to allow us to retreat.  Nathan and I enjoyed a short stay in Ogunquit, Maine, where we soaked up the sun, strolled for miles and miles along the Atlantic coast, climbed the rugged promontories, gazed upon the foamy surf, listened to the crashing of the waves, pondered the moon's pull of the earth's vast ocean waters and the ever changing shoreline.  So far, Ogunquit is my favorite spot in New England!

Another highlight is the princess party that Nora went to yesterday.  Nora dressed up as Cinderella.  When asked what was her favorite part of the party, she responded with immediate certitude, "el helado."
