It's about time.

I checked my Google Analytics this morning for the first time in a long while. It was a little scary.

So, with that in mind, we've decided the pros outweigh the cons and we are going private.

Please leave a comment with your email address if you would like to keep reading! (Your comment won't be published.) We will be going private December 1.

(Dad, I know this might sound a little confusing, but it just means that from now on you have to put in an email address and password to see our posts. If you have any questions, give me a call!)

Apple Hill

Last Saturday Brad and I drove into Placerville, CA to explore the very popular Apple Hill Orchards. Apple Hill has over 50 ranches, full of pumpkin patches, christmas tree farms, wineries, u-pick fruit farms, and of course all things APPLE: apple juice, apple cider, apple pies, apple turnovers, caramel apples, etc. The apples were the best I've ever eaten, the juice was the best, and so was the caramel apple... and, well, it was just one yummy treat after another!

It was the perfect time to visit, all the leaves were turning and colors were so pretty!


One of the pretty wineries


I was loving this vintage car


Brad was loving his caramel apple. (PS- Ask for it sliced. Makes eating it 10x more enjoyable!) This place had every type of caramel apple you could ever imagine- and some you would never think of- but let's be honest, traditional caramel and nuts is the best!



Our last stop of the day. They had the best Golden Delicious Apples and the prettiest flowers!

We are so lucky to live where we do! Although California certainly has it's downsides (traffic, state budget crisis, cost of living) it is such a beautiful place to live and we love it!
