So everyone has their flights booked ($OUCH$)...
I am sure that we will make up for that when you get here! I need to start the second batch of lemoncello and make sure we have enough. Also bringing lots of Patron! And then of course, wine...

Getting excited yet? I hope everybody brings their dance shoes...
Love, Molly

Very Sweet!

Since Bonika and Emma and I are headed out there a few days early, I put together a care package for them to kick off what I'm now calling I-PALOOZA TwentyTen. I'll share with you a passage from the letter that I included in that package to them in an effort to get over-excited...

...Dinner is served. Wow, look at all the people at the [we're living like a] king size dinner table. Those tall burning candles light the multiple dishes of organic Italian foods and beverages, and if you look on everyone's face, they are smiling and having the time of their life, thinking how they can't believe how great this is. I've seen the future, and this is what it's like.

Once the sun is down and dinner is finished, new opportunities arise. Maybe a late night swim in the pool, maybe some Lemoncella to help digest our meals, maybe some light painting with the digital cam, maybe all of that and then some.

One of my dearest friends once said "it's a little sad when your day's productivity is measured not by how much you've accomplished, but how many magic markers you've stolen." Whether it be stealing magic markers, continuous laughing and story telling, making new memories and seeing new things, plates of food, or bottles of wine, our I-Palooza time will be well spent...
So...this trip is going to be great...we can't wait. Thanks for setting it up Molly!
