Mothers Day and Anniversary

This year our Anniversary fell on Mother's Day.  We had a great celebration with our little family.  We had a yummy breakfast, presents for Natalie, a nice walk on the neighborhood trails, naps, delivered goodies to some friends and ate a yummy steak dinner and topped it all off with an amazing chocolate cake for dessert!  Here's to 12 years of marriage a nice Mother's Day and some other random pictures from this weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving this year!  We hosted at our house with my sister and her family from the bay area and my old mission buddy/roommate Brandon and his family.  We had a great feast that day and also enjoyed some football, a great trail run, trips to the park and some drone flying.  What a great day we had with family and friends!

One Year Older and Wiser Too

I celebrated another birthday earlier this week, it was a good day!  My staff took me to lunch, we had cake with all of the admin offices then I headed home to a pizza + salad dinner with the wifey and kiddos and we topped off the night with cake, cookies, rice krispy treats and a couple presents.  It was the perfect way to spend the day!  My kiddos were so excited about it as well, they love a good party and had fun getting balloons and decorations for the house, including party hats!  I got new running shoes and ended the day with a 3 mile run around the neighborhood trails.  I am feeling old, but grateful for me people and my wonderful life here in CA.

Jelly Belly Factory & Fenton's

Last weekend we went to Fairfield to tour the Jelly Belly Factory!  We had a great time with some of our friends taking the tour through the factory and then buying some of the 'belly flops' at the store.  The kiddos were in heaven and loved all of the candy and enjoyed seeing how they were all made.

After all of the jelly beans we headed to Vacaville to have a late lunch at Fenton's!  The food and ice cream were amazing and we were very satisfied with it all!  We played around the shopping area after lunch and took a quick ride on the carousel as well.  What a fun way to spend a Saturday!
