Fixing up our nest

That's right - we're remodeling again. If you can remember the last time we took on a re-model project in the beginning of the semester it lasted four months longer than expected. Well, this time is about the same; but if that means the results will be just as pleasing as the last - it will all be worth it!

Birthday Breakfast

Birthday Breakfasts are a new tradition for us - we just can't pass up chowing down on some Joe's Farm Grill (especially when it's free)! The best part is that Benson's birthday is only a week after mine so we're pretty spoiled for a few weeks.

Catching up

One day I'll finish posting the pictures from our big trip this summer...until then, here's some pictures from our trip (in August) to San Luis Obispo to visit Benson's brother Tanner. It is a gorgeous spot in California, probably one of my favorite places there!

We also visited Hearst Castle which was incredible. This is called the Neptune pool the columned structure along the back of the pool is an original structure moved from ancient Greece to this pool. They also had original artifacts from the pyramids in Egypt - to decorate their fountains of course.

This is the smallest guest house. It's only around 10,000 square feet.

The dining hall was used when the sets for the "great hall" for the Harry Potter movies were being created

The indoor Greek pool. The entire pool is 10 feet deep (no shallow end) with a diving platform built into the back wall (you can see it in the archway) and tiled with 1 inch blue and 24 karat gold tiles.
