Fun little outing..


Yesterday was such a beautiful day we decided to get out and explore a little. Jason had never been to Nevada City (this cute little town above grass valley) so we loaded up and went. We ate a quaint little cafe downtown next we got a yummy chocolate treat. Then drove up the mountains to explore. I spotted this cool tree with moss on it but it was at the bottom of a hill that went straight down. Jase and I have always loved to explore and be a little adventurous but we hadn't really done it with the kids. We both took a kid and walked (slid) down the hill to the bottom. Under this tree we were standing on was a creek. I set the camera up on the hill and put the timer on and ran down the hill jumping onto the log just in time. We had a blast and plan on having more fun adventures in the future.

My first cooking post!


The other night we had this for dinner...

And these for dessert...

 Nolan was a fan.
I will be the first to admit I am not much of a cook. Since this was a success I thought I would brag a little. the meatloaf is Rachel Ray style..used a cupcake pan.. the little mini meatloafs will cook faster..seeing as how I decide what to make for dinner around 5pm. The fresh green beans have bacon, cherry tomatoes and shredded mozzarella cheese..so good!

How we rang in the new year...


At the pier in S.F. eating awesome clam chowder bowls, watching street performers and enjoying the fireworks.

p.s. do you love how Nolan is totally watching us?

Changing it up a bit.


(This picture has no relevance to the post...I just like it:)


I've spruced up my blogs a bit. Just so you know the links to friends and family are still on here, they are just on the very bottom of the page. Check out my new project. 365 days of photos. I'm hoping it will help me become a better photographer in that I will have to get out my camera everyday and come up with new unique ideas. I'm excited!
