We grabbed some dinner and took an evening trip this past Sunday to a place about 10 minutes away that overlooks Ridgecrest. Because of my morning sickness, we really haven't made any of our usual day trips. It felt so good to get out and be in the fresh air! We ate our dinner here (Ridgecrest is in the background)
And as we ate looking out at Ridgecrest, if we looked to the left we could see this area, the spot where Jeff took me to a year to the day we met and proposed. It was a chilly, dark night in November 2001 (the day after Thanksgiving to be exact), and the view of our town was beautiful, as was the proposal!
We took a little walk. Melina was quite jealous that she couldn't be at the top of this rock with her Daddy and sister. She kept trying to find a way up there!
We then loaded up in the car and went for a drive. Jeff had been goldmining the previous weekend with Uncle Pat and had seen some beautiful yellow flowers already in bloom. We were amazed by gorgeous carpets of yellow flowers across our desert. So pretty!!

I am so envious of your picnic dinner up in our beautiful desert hills. On our way over to pick up Alijah last week, Harold & I were amazed @ all the carpets of flowers around our area. And what memories for you & Jeff! Looks like everyone had fun. Glad you are up to posting again.
