Chillin'

Jacques likes to hang out in Jax's "toy box" and hang with the stuffies.  Here are a few shots of him from this morning.  Most. Relaxed. Puppy. Ever.

Giving Thanks

I have much to be thankful for, but this weekend I was thankful for the wonderful time spent with my family on a beautiful autumn day.  Here's a few pics taken with a neat camera app I downloaded onto my phone.

I Could Get Used to This

We spent Sunday in the Santa Cruz wine appellation which is on the side of the Santa Cruz mountains.  The wines are amazing and so are the vistas.

The first winery didn't have much of a view, but it did have this nifty statue and this pretty courtyard.

These next several pictures were taken at the second winery where we also had lunch.

The rest of these pictures were taken at the third winery which was sorta modeled after a Tuscan villa.

Guy's Big Day at the Beach

Well, he asked for it so I'm delivering.  Here are some shots of Guy and his first trip to the Pacific coast.

Life is a Beach

Here's a few glorious pics from mine and Guy's day at Carmel.  Yes, I do realize I'm starting at the end but it's my blog and I can do what I like.

The End of the Rainbow

I woke up to this today:

And a half an hour later it was even better:

The weather may be cold and rainy this long weekend, but rain brings rainbows and a 3 day weekend is always worth celebrating!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

We celebrated my Dad's birthday on Saturday.  I'm not going to bother telling you how old he is because you wouldn't believe me anyway.

Happy Birthday, Dad.  I hope all your birthday wishes came true.
