Here's Jack at his school's Harvest Festival just before venturing into the haunted house!
 
Elsa!

The Miata Arrives in Folsom

It actually arrived a few weeks back but here's the evidence!


The kids love to ride in it as do we. It is a real treat for the kids as we don't let them in it too much except for little trips to the store.

Toothless Volume 1

Jack lost his 3rd tooth a few days ago and it was a big one! One of his front teeth. This is volume 1 because his other front tooth fell out today. Picture to come.

Gin Blossoms Cover Folsom Prison Blues!

One of the advantages of living in Folsom is getting to attend concerts 3 minutes away. Another advantage is artists playing in Folsom have often have an urge to cover Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues. Tonight it was the Gin Blossoms.


 
 
Our love reaches from the Pacific Ocean beaches to the beaches of Lake Michigan... and all places in between and beyond...like below from the random bunker of a golf course in AZ.... Happy 11th Anniversary to us!


11 Years!

Happy Eleven Year Anniversary to Us!
