Stinson Beach

A few weekends ago, we visited Stinson Beach in Northern California!

We were on the sand for only a few minutes...Jelly Belly and I were cold!
We can't hide the fact that we are from AZ!

Join in on the fun!

Charlie Brown

We are having fun exploring our new surroundings! Last week, we visited the Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa, California

Every 4th Monday of the month, they offer children's activities in the morning. 

I am glad we took advantage of it before she started preschool.

It was a great deal....Her entrance fee was $5 and this allowed me and a friend to get in for free. 

Not bad! Regular admission is $10 per adult.

This included a story, and a few craft stations for the kids throughout the museum.

Jelly Belly didn't quite understand or appreciate everything that was on their walls but I did.

She had more fun posing with the statues and watching a Peanuts movie on our way out.

We enjoyed a nice lunch in the cafe at Snoopy's Home Ice Arena and had fun window shopping at the museum store.

We did have a "moment" when she realized that Mommy did not buy anything for her!

Sonoma Sunday

Sunday was Family Fun Day!

After church and our ritual breakfast/lunch, we headed to Train Town in Sonoma for the first time.  We loved it!! Jelly Belly made me ride something called "The Scrambler" that had me laughing and screaming so hard, tears were rolling down.  It must be this aging thing because I used to love rides, now I am not so sure.

We did the whole park in less than 2 hours and rarely had to wait in line.  Isabella rode her first ferris wheel.  We will definitely be coming back.  I loved the trees and the breeze! And there was no screaming in mama's face when we left! (something we are working on)

Here are some pics.  Too bad our battery in our camera died and we had to rely on our phones.

Not too far from there, we made it to downtown Sonoma where we enjoyed chocolate tasting, art galleries, the swings at the park and of course some:

Trains, chocolate, shopping and wine tasting all in one day! I hope the rest of our week is as good as today!

Have a great week!

And wish us luck as Jelly Belly starts her 2nd year of preschool tomorrow morning...and of course, she is STILL awake complaining of leg pain!

Join in on the fun!

Tara Firma Farms

Sunday was a good day in Petaluma, California! 
Church, followed with some IHOP and our first visit to Tara Firma Farms.
We are loving the weather here, 70 degrees with a bit of breeze from the wind!
Never did I think I would experience this in July!
Jelly Belly holding baby turkeys!

We had a great time! It was very relaxing! And Jelly Belly loved the baby chicks (turkeys) and piglets.

Best of all it was FREE! This farm offers free tours on Sundays.

We won't mention the big tantrum she threw when it was time to leave!

Join us in Mommy and Me!
