My crazy,comical,content life!!!: My trip to Cali

For those of you that haven't heard, I have declared 2011, The Year of Stacie. What does this mean exactly and what does this have to do with my recent trip to Cali??? It means this year I'm going to focus on me. Too often we get caught up with the day to day life of being a mom and a wife. We put our wants, desires, and needs to the side. We give up having fun in exchange for more responsibility. We lose friendships, because we are simply to busy to nurture them. Its really unfortunate. This year I need to take time for me....which brings me to my recent trip.

I decided to take a trip by myself to see one of my very bestest friends,Sarah! Sarah and I met in Hawaii and we just clicked. You know what I mean? I didn't have to "work" at trying to be her friend. I loved her personality from the moment I met her. I love the fact that she talks just as much as I do. (Maybe More..jk) Although we haven't seen each other in almost two years it was as if I still lived down the street from her. We had every intention of seeing the sights of San Fran and we did see some, but in all honesty, we spent the day drinking in a bar having some really good conversation. I wouldn't trade my friend fun for anything...not even the sea lions at pier 39.

I'm glad I took some ME time to focus on something that is important to me.. my friends. Friend time is so therapeutic. I'm looking forward to doing it again!! I leave you with pictures of my therapy session in Cali.
