  So Much Going On As of today, it has been one year since we moved! We moved from a duplex owned by my grandparents in Marin to my deceased grandmother’s home in the Sacramento area. I can’t believe it went from this to this. I think the best part about our place is that we put a ton of [...]

  C is for Cookie The Friday Five ~ 1. What is absolutely the best cookie you’ve ever had? Homemade chocolate chips cookies made by my future mother in-law. 2. What is a cookie you really don’t care for? Oatmeal cookies that have raisins in the them. I hate any cookies that have raisins or nuts for that matter. Cookies were meant either [...]

  In the Golden Afternoon About a year ago Joshua and I began working on clearing out the house. Now that the house is 100% done, we’re tackling the yard so we can actually enjoy the patio. We weren’t able to enjoy our patio much last year because we worked on the house well through the summer and most of [...]
