"Wanna do something fun?"

That's what my cousin Emily asked when she called me at 7am this morning. My reply, "OF COURSE!" So, we already have 3 Trader Joe's within a few of miles of us (I know we're so lucky) but a NEW ONE JUST OPENED 1.6 miles away! (I mapped it) This morning...at 8am! That's walking distance my friends. I used to lug groceries farther than that when we lived in Zürich. Whenever Jared suggests we move somewhere, my first question I always ask is, "Will there be a Trader Joe's nearby." We loaded the kids in the car expecting a huge crowd...but to our surprise the balloon guy was searching out people who wanted a blow-up elephant.





It seems that the kids weren't as excited as we were!

I'm so ridiculously jealous! Ours is an HOUR AND A HALF away. Hey, at least it's here at all right? Hoory for Trader Joe's and finally opening the Stanford one!
