A busy Summer

Where did the Summer go?

I've been super busy making beads, spending as much time as I can at the beach, doing some fix-ups on our home in the mountains (holding our breath about all the fires in our area) 

and we managed to take a road trip up north! 

Here are a few pics!

The Junction Fire

Coming into town yesterday

A wild fire (The Junction Fire) started in our little town of Oakhurst (by Yosemite) yesterday.

We are safe now, but we have a lot of friends still in danger of losing everything. At this point the fire is zero percent contained. It's been a hard year for California, with the drought and fires.

The Birds and the Bees

I have a few new fine silver pieces available. 

Hope you like them as much as I enjoyed making them.

Weekend wrap-up

 

Molly discovered she LOVES Starbucks cake pops (look at that tongue!)

I worked on fine silver pieces.

Met up with my dad in Summerland for lunch (cute town)

Vertical veggie towers (great idea for small gardens)

Eating Sprinkles cupcakes in bed, Molly loves their doggie cupcakes.

Molly and I went to support my husband, who shot a great match this weekend!

Hope your weekend was packed full of fun too!

Montana de Oro

We spent the 3-day weekend on the coast.

We slept in everyday, took long walks on the beach, took bike rides and BBQ every night (the weather was perfect!)

We also headed over to Montana de Oro, it's a great place to find the coolest beach rocks. A must stop if you are ever in the area.

Mother's Day (weekend)

I was lucky enough to spend the whole weekend with my son. So we plained some fun things to do...Saturday we headed up to Big Sur for a little hiking. At the end of the trail the view is amazing! We finished the day with dinner at one of my favorites, Deetjen's. 

Sunday we woke up early and went bike riding on the Bob Jones Trail. 

We had a blast!
