Lovely Sunday

...we all slept in from our extremely late night on Saturday. Drew drove Rachel and I to religious school -- only to find that we hadn't been paying attention to synagogue newsletters and it turned out that there was no choir rehearsal this morning (two days after a performance, ya know....) So Rachel and I hung out a bit until Drew arrived to pick me up and take me to brunch (a Sunday morning tradition).

We were finishing up at Einstein's Bagels and got into a conversation with the woman and her 4-year-old sitting next to us. Turns out they live in Arlington and the kids may end up at McKinley next year if the school boundaries change. And...the woman and her family are members of Rodef Shalom and her daughter is in Rachel's class! Small world. To make it even smaller...the woman, Stacy, has a friend named Lisa who owns a used bookstore in...wait for it...North Portland! I told Drew we need to stop in there next summer and freak her out by saying, "We know your friend Stacy in Arlington!"

Then we picked up Rachel. Drew dropped us off at Rachel's tennis lesson (it was a 60ish degree day, gorgeous for being outside, and all I wanted to do at the end of her lesson was all take a walk in Great Falls Park. But, I had to go to work. Sigh) while he went home to rake leaves. Then they picked me up and drove me to work, got back for Rachel's swim lesson (resuming after weeks of not going for various reasons), then home.
