For Sale

As most of you know

I've decided to put my house up for sale in hopes of moving to Reno when it sells

I really wish that I could pick it up and transplant it to Reno. I had this house built 2 years ago and I love everything about it.

We are on an acre just 3 miles from town but are still very secluded with few neighbors and lots of BLM land just behind us that make for perfect quad riding.

But sadly we are going to have to leave our pretty home to start over in a new one and thats exciting too.

So if you know of anyone looking to buy in this little town,

I'm kinda partial to this one and its a really good deal. Its listed through Berney Realty.

Can you smell it?

Its the smell of Thanksgiving

No...not the smell of turkey and stuffing fresh out of the oven OR homemade pumpkin pie. SILLY!

Its the smell of burnt rubber, raw fuel and exhaust all mixed together to create one sweet aroma. That my friends is the smell of Thanksgiving for me.

Dad and I are headed to Vegas for a big race on Wednesday morning and I can't wait to get there. We haven't raced since May and I'm jones'n to hit the track!

Watch Out Boys

just another excuse...

to get out of town!

Candy and I made the trip to Apple Hill over the weekend for a quick little get away.

So FUN!

We took the scenic route on the way there (by the way, if you're in a hurry or prone to car sickness avoid hwy49). It was a really beautiful drive though.

Candy is slowly trying to make me GREEN in any way possible. Organics, recycling, you name it and she's trying it. I have been pretty open minded for a little country girl who grew up thinking recycling was just another way people tried to make $$ (whats all this saving the earth business?)
I tried new fruit on this trip... Asian Pears and Persimmons.

In case you didn't know,
Asian Pears are DELICIOUS!


1st Cousins
Can you see the resemblance?

Oh well, it was worth a try. We really are related :)

Promise!

It made so much more sense at the time.
We were at a brewery, what can I say?

Now that is a BIG pumpkin. All 1153lbs of it.



We topped the trip off with dinner in Folsom.
MMmmm... the best raspberry Mojito EVER!

Then we stopped by the fire station before our drive home to see my HOT firefighter boyfriend and check out where he works.

Goin for a Hike

We used this Veterans day to go for a hike out at Grimes Point. I'm ashamed to say this, but I've never really done the Grimes Point thing. I must have been sick for that field trip in 4th grade.

So, Mallory and Olivia, Candy, my Aunt Theresa, Lauren (Candy's niece) and myself all went to hike up the trails and check out the Petroglyphs (not to be confused with hieroglyphs-which are in Egypt). You're welcome for the clarification. :)

SO Cute!

In case you were wondering, we didn't loose Faith, she just decided to spend the day with a friend instead of hiking. Mallory really enjoyed being the big kid for the hike.


Mallory stayed way ahead of the pack having a great time climbing the rocks along the way.

WE MADE IT!


Be afraid...be VERY afraid.

I can play too. Just makin sure I still have some skillz.

Bye Bye Beagle

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR ALL POTENTIAL DOG OWNERS

Beagles are quite possibly the most evil dogs ever created

Don't be deceived by the cute face and big floppy ears, underneath all the cuteness is a evil little creature waiting to escape

And when she does she will maul your furniture, eat your child's toys and spread garbage throughout your home (but mainly under the child's bed).

So, Needless to say

Lucy, my evil little beagle found a new home today. Hopefully this one will last. The last people I tried to give her to could only tolerate her for about 5 hours before calling to give her back.

Do yourself a favor

get a BIG dog with small ears
