Where in the World is Lauren Veronica Valdez?

This past week has been crazy with the culmination of Nicole’s marathon.  Saturday she was feeling a little anxious, so we wandered around telegraph, got tarot cards read, won free smart pens, and drank boba.  Nicole had been hardcore training all summer, but she was worried it wasn’t enough.  We never doubted her for a second…if anybody I know can run a marathon it is Nicole and perhaps my mom.  She even missed out on the latest game night of settlers/poker at Shu’s and hasn’t had an alcoholic beverage in forever (we are making up for this fact this weekend, so please hit us up).  Being marathon fans was super fun and tiring.  Sanya and I spent hours making the most bomb signs ever (with help from Briant and the Cal Men’s gymnastics team…we are also going into business designing posters for all your cheering needs).  We  woke up early and chased Nicole around SF by bart, muni, bus, and running.  She went way faster than we expected and we almost thought she was going to beat us on the bus to the finish line.

I come home yesterday and Becca and Grace are standing on the front porch taking pictures, for what I thought would be a big event, but no these dresses were part of a series of outfits in a Monday afternoon round of dress-up.  The only problem was that they had nowhere to go.  Upon hours of requests, they finally get a car but nobody to drive until…SANYA saved the day being the badass from Oregon that she is with mad stick-driving skills.  This video is a glimpse at the result.  Spoiler Alert: There is a happy ending.
