Bed Bugs

This is how I found Ailis & Liam last night in our bed AFTER they had already been put to bed in their own room. I went to check on them and found them together in our room. So adorable!

Fall in the California Foothills

I took a trip with my friend Melissa and a few of her friends to the Apple Hill region of California last Saturday, in El Dorado County. The colors were phenomenal. We ate freshly baked warm apple donuts, drank the pure apple cider, did a little shopping, listened to bluegrass music, and had a great time. Of course the trip would not have been complete without sampling some of the wine from one of the many wineries in the area, Lava Cap Winery.

Liam's Preschool Trip to Bishop's Farm Pumpkin Patch

Liam's Preschool took a trip to the Bishop's Farm Pumpkin Patch this week.

Beale Air Force Base Family Pre-Deployment Day

This was a day that Beale Air Force Base had for families to show them what the pre-deployment process is like for our troops that deploy downrange. The kids had a great time getting the fake Anthrax shot, watching a military briefing about desert snakes and bugs, sitting in the U2 ejection seat, tasting the tube-food that the U2 pilots eat when they are in their "space-suits", checking out the Globalhawk, learning CPR, rock-climbing, and pugil stick fighting.
