Our amazing friend Vinny painted this picture especially for us. It's a road in El Cajon at dusk. The sun has disappeared behind the hills and there is just an amazing glow left in the sky, but the stars are already visible.
I can't decide what I love the most about this painting - the curve of the road, knowing it's a real place I've been, the cat's eyes, the twinkling lights of the city, the beautiful sky, the silhouette of the hills, or the fact that Vinny painted it especially for us.
All of those things make this one of the best gifts I've ever been given. It's very special to me.
Vinny is a very talented artist, yet very modest about it. He has so many of his beautiful paintings around the house. Jodi is also a very inspiring person to be around. She's so creative and will happily sit and draw or paint for hours. She makes amazing fantasy pictures from a blank piece of paper. Creativity just flows out of those two.
No wonder their kids are such amazing, creative and free-thinking people.
