the wedge

i have awesome parents that let me and daron 
crash their date night last week

and accompany them to the wedge.

we watched very very brave surfers surf the big swell

with hundreds of other spectators.

the wedge is on my top 10 list 

of favorite places.

i think i love it so much
because my family has made so many memories there

and because big crowds gather there when the waves are big

so it kind of exudes excitement.

as we were on the sand, 
cheering (and cringing)

with the rest of the crowd 
while the surfers either conquered or crashed and burned,

i thought about how if daron and i ever move -

the wedge will be a place i miss the most.

then, as i was going through these pictures -

i thought about how if we ever have to live far from family,
at least i will have my husband and baby 

who can do the all-too-adorable finger hold

anywhere...
