I went to Silverado for a Girls Weekend. None of my friends played tennis so I made my way to the courts myself hoping to get in a game or lesson. Right away I was greeted and told that there was a drop-in at 4pm which I attended. I got a chance to play with [...]

The Northstar ski trip was a lot of fun. With 3 other daycare families staying in the same cabin, the kids certainly had a blast. First off, staying in the Northstar Mountain Homes was awesome. We had door to village bus service so there really was no need to fight for parking. There was also [...]

Wow…Thanksgiving has come and gone, Christmas has come and gone, and now, New Year’s Day is coming to a close. We spent Thanksgiving in Scottsdale, AZ where it was the chilliest Thanksgiving in 30 years there. Nonetheless, we were able to swim each day in the warmed up pools of the Phoenician Resort. The boys [...]

San Diego can get hot during the summer days, but when San Diego gets really hot, heading for the beach or a pool is ideal. But, if you’ve got 2 growing boys (or girls), the new water park at Legoland is THE place to hang out. This is probably the best water park I’ve ever [...]

The sandwich was pressed with grapes, nuts and some secret sauce. We also enjoyed the best coffee eclair as we sat outside enjoying the warm weather.  Birds [...]

We had a great trip to Tahoe for summer vacation with Tyler’s best friend, Gavin and his family. We planned this trip after the July 4th weekend, so we were there July 5-11. This proved to be a great strategy as most people were leaving Tahoe (in traffic) while we were entering Tahoe. On our [...]

Dennis the Menace Park in Monterey is such a fun park to go to. Not only is it free, but it’s big, fun, and has restrooms at the entrance. From the Silicon Valley area, we leave fairly early in the morning to get there when the park opens at 10am and closes at dusk. We’ve [...]

Brentwood is an East Bay gem in California. Every year around Memorial Day weekend, many of the farms open up to the public for U-Pick fruits…these include cherries, strawberries, loquats, and peaches among others. This year Brentwood was very pleasant on Memorial Day weekend with fair, warm weather. We went there on the last day [...]
