Brian and I couldn't decided between heading to the lake for the weekend or staying home and saving money for our up coming trip to Santa Cruz. We got lucky when our friends Carly and Derek invited us up to their cabin for the weekend. It was a nice compromise between to be able to save a few dollars but also to get out and enjoy the heat.

What use to be the lake

Since I don't have any children I get to torture all of you with silly photos of my dog.

The Peach Farm

Its been years since I've been to the River swimming. I can't even beging to tell you how much I've missed it. I almost prefer going to the river for the day then I do going up to the lake for the weekend. That probably has something to do with the fact that I can sleep in my own bed after a day at the river :) My sister in law Rachel has been going to her secret spot for year - which actually wasn't that much of a secret. By mid afternoon there were 10 other cars parked there but the location was perfect. A bridge to jump off of, rapids to float down, and just enough room that you could pretend you where there by youself.

I can't believe its been almost an entire month since I've blogged. I told myself when I started this thing that I'd attempt to post at least once a week. I guess the good news is that I've been too busy enjoying life to sit down and share my photos.

We picked up Brian son in Redding the day before fathers day. He currently lives in Nebraska but spends the summer and every other holiday with us. Its fun to have him around because we do things we wouldn't normally do but at the same time its a complete restructure of our daily lives. Just when I get use to the adjustment he goes home and we start all over again.

The photos above are just a recap of what we've been doing for the last 4 weeks.
