31 and Home

After six days of road tripping around Northern California, and for a brief moment the bottom of Oregon, being home has never felt so good.  We had one of the best vacations of our lives but after hiking through the Redwoods, climbing waterfalls upstream, trekking through dense Mt. Shasta forest and not to mention staying in a town that even made the gift store owner in Weed, CA raise an eyebrow, showering in our own shower and sleeping in our own bed is top of the line, priceless.

I am overwhelmed with the amount of photography we got and random stories for days, some worth sharing, some you really had to be there, and some we will take to the grave.  I can’t wait to share highlights of our adventures, the results of me selecting all accommodations online, some of the delicious spots we found to grub at and of course little road trip fashion tips I learned along the way.

This very second, however, I am on my way to take an extremely hot shower, put on fresh clean, crisp pajamas out of my own dresser, eat some local tacos from across the street and enjoy an ice cold beer, out of our own fridge.  So for now, I leave you with some of my top favorite captured moments fresh from the ole iPhone.

A very deepest thank you to everyone who has wished me such warm birthday wishes.  Thirty-one at the moment sounds extremely old and gross, especially being an odd prime number.  I know that there is great potential for me to have the best year of my life ahead or possibly one with some of the biggest learning curves I have yet to encounter, or maybe even both.  The options seem endless, despite the age sounding old (to me) and I can’t help but smirk at how far I have come to get here.  I am ready for you 31, but just for now, for fashionable sake, lets call you 30 round 2.

Noodle Note: Huge special thank you to my folks. They have thrown me a pretty solid 31 years worth of celebrations and this year was thought out down to the last detail as always.  I greatly appreciate the effort that the worlds best hosting duo has put into everything that they have ever done for me.  Love you.
