california babymoon: reconnecting, farmers' market, and kids

saturday was busy running around ...

one of my oldest friends from elementary school had asked if i wanted to meet up while i was in california.  i last saw her at our reunion in 2007, and we had met up YEARS before that once --- i think it was probably circa 2002 or so --- and before that probably hadn't seen each other since high school.  our parents were really close with each other growing up, but life took us all in different directions pretty much just before high school.

we were also going to meet up with another girl from high school, whom i hadn't seen in years, but she actually went into LABOR just a few hours before brunch. she facebooked us at about 7am that morning to let us know her water had broke and she was at the hospital.  (if she didn't want to have brunch with us, she could have just said so!).

meghan & myles (7 weeks!!!!)

megs is a total natural!

and brunch was fab!

after brunch we walked over to the irvine farmers' market.  i had so much fun walking around with meghan and was very excited to find out that she has a yard with her new house!

meghan picked out a new hydrangea!!

and she even found some worms for the compost pile she and her husband had just started!! these worms are bred to compost, so she really bought the best of the best here, folks.

it was great to treat megs to a little early mother's day brunch and can you believe, she brought a gift for baby girl larkin? she totally showed me up!! what a sweetheart. it was really fun hanging out with her!

... saturday to be continued ...
