wordless wednesday, but with words

Well, we're heading home after a week in Palm Springs. We have been having a great time. It has been 80-90 degrees every day, lots of swimming (well not by me), lots of sleeping (well not by Charlie), and I even read a book! (The Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, try it, you'll like it). But we're missing home (we are true northwesterners after all, and we're super excited to see Grace and hear about all the fun she has been having in New York! Oh, and BTW, you know how I ordered that Kindle Fire? Well it was supposed to be delivered on the 28th (the day we got here), and it's STILL. NOT. HERE! I'm pretty sure it will show up just as soon as we leave for the airport. I'm pretty much over it already anyway.

Meanwhile, Camden is EIGHT today! Happy Birthday to a sweet young man, and a fabulous big brother to Charlie!

I don't really "get" Wordless Wednesday. So around here words are totally OK, and actually encouraged! So if you like words too and want to link up your "Wordless Wednesday, but with Words", please do. And if it's Thursday by the time you get around to it, well heck, that's OK too.

Grab my button and link up below and also with some of my favorite wordless (or black and white) Wednesday hostesses:
