Those were my favorite things from our weekend getaway. We took a quick trip to Palm Springs. We reserved our hotel at the last minute and decided to just GO! It was the only weekend we had available before Stephen’s big surgery in October, so we had to jump on it. Palm Springs is hot.…

Not Too Missour-able (Get It?)
Little Steverino and I just took a trip 1,300 miles from home. I would venture to say it was quite a success! Honestly, I was pretty nervous to: a) take him on the plane for the first time b) maintain my pumping schedule c) drive 4 hours in the car with him d) have him…
Road Trip
We had a plan. My husband got 2 weeks off from work. We were gonna go to Southern Utah to visit the family for the weekend and then spend (at least) one night in Vegas so we could take advantage of the warm weather lounging by a fabulous pool. Our plans changed. The season premier…
Mammoth Mountain
This last weekend, we had the chance to get outta dodge and go visit some nature. Same cabin as last year and it was just great. We had snow in the hills and it was plenty cold. We did some beer (and root beer) tasting, watched a lot of TV, went to the tippy top…
Oh DMB. How I Love You So!
This past weekend, we went up north to see them at one of our favorite venues: Shoreline Amphitheater. This trip up to the San Jose/San Francisco area has been a yearly tradition for about…11 years already! But I’m sad to say, this may have been our last show for a while. Next year, the band…
Utah Trip
Took another little trip this past week – my annual romp to Utah. Instead of flying straight to Salt Lake this year, I made a little detour in St. George to visit my family, see my nephew and pick up my sister so she could romp with me! It felt like such a whirlwind because…
Finland: In a Nutshell
I can’t believe we’ve already been home for 3 weeks. I mean we were in Finland a month ago. Crazy. Traveling to Finland was a bit like time travel to me. We left our house at 4am on Tuesday and arrived in Helsinki at 10am on Wednesday. I swear I saw the sunset and the…
Holy Crap! We Just Went to Finland!!
What a great experience! My Mom grew up in Finland, and I still have a good chunk of family that lives there. I went once when I was about 2 years old, but obviously don’t remember it at all. My cousin got married, so it was just the perfect excuse for me and hubs to…
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
This past weekend, after many months of anticipation, I took a trip with my girlfriends to Las Vegas. I will say that this was not my first choice of location, simply because… well, I go to Vegas a lot. And I’ve been craving new places. But it was really the easiest vacation to plan and…
Dave & Tim
Aaaaah…. what can I say? Drove all the way to Vegas for one night to see the Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds acoustic show. And it was sooo worth it. Freakin’ amazing. My very first Dave Matthews concert was an acoustic show all the way back in March of ’99. And my life has never…
