Napa Weekend

This weekend Sarah and I took a trip to Napa and San Francisco for a little vacation. It was a great trip and a relaxing one. We went wine tasting at a few winery's and ate the most amazing cheeses. Napa is absolutely beautiful! I can't wait to do it again. Here are some pictures of our vacation.

My busy month

This last month has been crazy busy so I have not had a bunch of time to post. So I have decided to do one large post on the things that have happened this last month. I hope you enjoy :)

In November my friend Rebecca came to visit and to check out MIIS. Rebecca is moving to Monterey within the next few weeks to start classes at MIIS. It will be great to have her around. The weekend that she came was one of the hottest weekends we have had in a long time. It was an absolutely perfect weekend. We had a great time hanging out and enjoying the great weather. We even had a bunch of people over for dinner and games. It was a great weekend. Here are a few pictures of the weekend.



After Rebecca left I spent the next few weeks working on getting the church ready for the Christmas holiday. The vision this year was simple, elegant, and Pottery Barn like. We put lights on a bunch of trees in the parking lot and we also put lights on the building. It looks like a winter wonderland. It look a little over a week to get the lights completely finished. The week of Thanksgiving is when I started decorating the church. Three rooms and four Christmas trees later the church was complete. It looks good :)

Thanksgiving went by like a blur. I spent the day with some good friends of mine, the Holdridge and Ramones family. Bryna made an amazing dinner and, with the help of her mom Karen, made four pies. Everything was absolutely fabulouse. After dinner and before the desert we went for a walk arond the neighborhood. We ended up at the park and we watched as Nate and Riley played a great game of sneaked tennis, they each took one sneaker off and used it as their racket. We ended the night with a game of Tripoly. Riley, Nate, and Ken got out quickly but us girls went the distance. I forgot that I had my camera so I did not get many pictures. I did happen to get the these two. The guys were sure tired :)
