After church yesterday, JD and I packed a bag and made our way north to Santa Barbara to visit our good friend, David Jay. I burned what could be the most epic CD known to mankind (the awesomeness may just melt your ears off), grabbed some fruit, and we cruised up the Pacific coast. I was extra happy because Polo joined us for this trip and JD slept in the reclined passenger seat, Polo perched himself on JD's neck, much like a parrot. A furry parrot.

We're spending Labor Day not laboring…and we're loving every minute of it! We went on a long walk this morning, ate an awesome breakfast (that incidentally turned into lunch), and now we're off to the dog park. We'll likely relax the day away and grab dinner one of our favorite places. And, why, yes, of course I'll take dessert! Because Labor Day is calorie-free. It's true. JD told me.

Hope you're having a great day…and to make it even better, here's Polo looking like one happy little fella in Santa Barbara…
