101 in 1001 lists are pretty popular...I know I've mentioned my obsession with goal and list making, so of course I have a 101 things to do in 1001 days list!  There is something that has been on my list for a very long time...in fact, it's been on there so long that I recently made a new 101 in 1001 list because, well, time slipped away, I suppose.  Sheesh.

I have always wanted to get my pilot's license.  I don't really have a great reason why, but I just want to and I am very fascinated by planes.  So about a month ago, Mike called me excitedly after he left work and asked me to meet him at the airport...

And we got to go flying!  

So you're thinking, big deal, I just flew from Cinci to NYC last week.  OK, this is waayyy more fun than flying commercially.  I was having a hard time justifying to Mike that we should fly first class everywhere...but now I'm starting to have a really hard time convincing him that we should just buy our own plane ;)

This plane actually made a debut on my blog last year (oh, and there's also a super cute couple in the post as well :) )...click HERE to revisit the post!

It's really awesome to be able to fly over where you live...since Mike and I haven't lived here that long it was nice to see how everything is laid out from the air.  These are the "bluffs" that we take Bear to everyday...

You see, flying and me will get along just fine...there are all kinds of checklists...

A few weekends ago I had the pleasure of visiting Pleasanton, CA (East Bay) for Dan and Caroline's wedding (who you may remember from this post!).  Their wedding was sooo gorgeous and was held at Murrieta's Well winery on a hot, 102 degree day :)

Recently Mike and I went to a cookout at a farm in Santa Ynez (which is very pretty and is also wine country :) ) and as I'm editing through some different sessions today I found these images on my computer that I downloaded but never went through.  

I love farms and I love cows, oh, and I love food...so this was a super fun day...
