We recently went to Vegas with the kids to play at a party and then flew to Los Angeles (and couldn't get enough of it.)
Rooftop pool, no winter coats, giant leaves to collect...Mags has been saying she wants to live in California ever since we returned.
I noticed that we were stopping to smell the flowers (literally) while everyone else In LA just cruised by not realizing how amazing warm sunshine feels when you've been deprived of it for too long.
And now, we're back home. I think it's suppossed to be 56 degrees on Sunday.
Also, in music news, we're going to see Elizabeth Mitchell in a couple weeks. She's playing at Joes Pub and then in North Hampton. Take your kids.
Recently in the car Mags and I have been listening to songs with her name in them (ie. "Maggie's Farm", "Hold On Magnolia" by Songs: Ohio and some other old folk songs) Then she asked why there wasn't a song with "Kori" in it, and wanted to know if that made me feel bad. She went on to assure me that when she's in a band which "she probably will be some day" she will definitely make a song with my name in it. I will remind her of that when she starts a band with her cool 16 year old friends, "Don't forget the song you promised to sing...about me, your mom..."
