November

I am very behind.  We went to Tim and Sarah's for our annual pilgrimage to the "big city." And we were NOT disappointed. Great food, wine tasting near Jack London Square, exploring Oakland. So much fun. Then we went to Yakima for Thanksgiving.  This was the first time we have ever had Thanksgiving in Yakima since we got married!! Crazy!!!  I got my fry sauce, spent time with cousins, got up early for shopping, and we avoided any and all snow! 

After that we hit up Sonoma and randomly met up with my good friend from jr high/high school Lindsay at the Coppola Winery where she was visiting with some of her friends. It was a unique experience for us to meet up not in our home town, nor in our own current city's. 

We went to the Tree Farm in Chico for the first time, and it is so beautiful! We definitely plan on going back again. The kids love the Bamboo Forest!

 My friend Katie and I got to see eachother as well. She lives in Tennessee with her husband and two sons, and they stopped by my parents' house for a visit.  Here is us holding our kids. Her boys/ names are Owen and Sam, are were as cute and sweet as could be!

 Trent loves babies.  Here he is holding/wrangling Sam!
