4 years of bliss
So this past weekend Lauren and I ventured up to Cloverdale, CA to celebrate 4 years of marriage! It was such a great time of rest and relaxation We stayed at our favorite place up there The Old Crocker Inn. It was our third time staying there and it just keeps on getting better. The smell of fresh baked chocolate macadamian nut cookies upon arrival were something to die for! Couldn't have asked for a better weekend as the weather was absolutely beautiful, 75 degrees the entire weekend.
On Saturday we drove up to Clearlake, CA and went through the small towns of Lakeport and Kelseyville. When I say small, I mean small. Towns with just a few stop signs. We had a lot of fun driving through the hills and singing along to the 2007 Grammy CD. Saturday night we ate at our favorite Italian Restaurant, La Piecere.
Sunday we filled ourselves up with a 3 course breakfast from the Bed and Breakfast and then drove through the Alexander Valley and made our way through Calistoga and St. Helena before finally stopping in Napa for lunch at Gillwoods Cafe. Overall, it was a great weekend. Below are some pictures from our time up in wine country.

Braces
So today a pretty big event happened. I got braces! I'm glad that I'm typing cause my mouth feels pretty raw from the metal. Braces were something I was denying for a long time until last month when the orthodontist said I would lose all my teeth by the time I was 60 (how's that for some motivation?). Anyways, 2 years will be the treatment length and I already can't wait to get them off.

Coaching
Today was officially my first day coaching basketball. I've got a team of 8th grade boys that I am beginning to work with. It is a lot of fun and challenging at the same time! I am coaching at Charlotte Wood Middle School which is close to the high school I work at. It seems as though we are going to have a good team so far as this same team only lost 1 game last year. Coaching is going to be a great challenge, but rewarding at the same time. Stay tuned for an exciting post tomorrow...
