Hawkins is 2!

Hawkins celebrated his birthday this weekend with mum mum, Aunt Boo, a Red Robin dinner and an animal pancake breakfast the next morning. Unfortunately a couple hours after animal pancakes that darn daycare stomach bug attacked and Hawkins ended up spending his birthday with a very unhappy tummy. Good thing he won't remember this when he gets older :) Also unfortunate, the stomach bug struck again a day later for poor Aunt Boo, something she will remember for some time to come. Happy Birthday Hawkins! Can't wait for your ROCKSTAR birthday par-tay!

A Wedding in Wine Country

I made quick trip to wine country for a long weekend full of family, food and of course lots of yummy local wines. First stop was Paso Robles for Erica and Jerome's wedding. It was great to reunite with the McClow family, and be part of such a lovely wedding for two special people. We all soaked in the sun and the beautiful scenery especially the AK folks who have seen nothing by non-stop rain the past couple weeks. As per usual, I made the most of my time in the lower 48, by stopping to see Tami for a fun day of tasting in Oregon wine country courtesy of a Living Social limo wine tour-YES! The day was so fun I nearly missed my late night flight to the AK. Time to get another trip in the works...girls trip Chicago sounds pretty good :)

Near Point Peak Hike

After torrential rains and a windstorm that killed power in most of the city this week, the sun finally came out! Saturday was beautiful and crisp and a perfect day to go hiking. Near Point Peak is right in Anc, and offers really amazing panoramic views of the city. The fall colors have already swept through the city and we were surrounded by lovely reds, yellows and oranges all around. I love fall!
