Roman Holiday

One of our favorite things about living in San Francisco is the movies in the park. On Saturday night we watched one of my favorite classics, Roman Holiday. I grew up watching old classic movies with my Grandma and I cherish those memories and there is nothing more classic than Audrey Hepburn. Watching Roman Holiday on the big screen from the front row, in the middle of Union Square, cuddled up with my darling boy, while eating takeout. Needless to say it was a perfect date night! It was the perfect way to prepare for the Roman holiday of our own. It was fun to see so many of Rome's famous sites and think about the memories we will be making there later this week. We are both excited for our upcoming Mediterranean adventure, Thursday can't come fast enough.

Words of Wisdom

I heard this great quote by Eleanor Roosevelt that has really stuck with me and I just love it. "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people."



I just see this as a great perspective to have as I work on my goal of becoming a better conversationalist and friend. I just love when you hear exactly what you needed when you need it most. I've found life is full of those little blessings and perfect surprises. So, what has helped you lately?
