GOODBYE TO KINDERGARTEN & MISS PEREZ

This photo was taken the last day of school. I'd been mingling with the other parents when I found Aubrey and Ms. Perez "having a moment," as Ms. Perez said.

Aubrey LOVES Ms. Perez. And I can't count the times Ms. Perez told me or Aubrey she'd love to clone Aubrey.

They're going to be email pals.

A Cabo Wabo Reception for the new Dentist
June 15, 2008

Graduation night I rented out the Sammy Hagar room at Saylors in Sausalito and invited all our favorite people from the area to celebrate with us. It was also sort of a last hurrah to say goodbye to these special friends who've been with us through dental school -- friends from the Rec Center, from writing group, and from Willow Creek Academy, mostly. We had a few favorite out of town guests, too, with Mick's brother, his parents, and our pal Rob flying down for the events. With so many friends, good food, and tasty margaritas, the night was even better than we could've hoped for.
