Mom and Dad in Basque Co!

My parents were coming to babysit for us... But since we are here in the States, they are there with our team and having a blast! Here they are walking in the historic town of Guernica.

Simple Pleasures

My husband has a light heart and an easy laugh. I love him for it. Lately, he has found a little something that makes me clap my hands and squeal like a little girl. It goes a little something like this:
Starbucks Drive-Thru Worker: Hello, welcome to Starbucks, what can I get for you?
Gerald: an 8 ounce (short) coffee with a little cream, please.
Starbucks Drive-Thru Worker: Okay, anything else for you today, sir?
Gerald: Yes, add a double shot of love in that coffee, too.
Starbucks Drive-Thru Worker: Uh...well, SURE! (stunned, but pleased.)
Me: (clapping my hands and squealing like a little girl) :)
