I hope that this post finds all of you doing well. I spent all of last week in San Francisco, CA with the Cairney women and had a fabulous time. There are many wonderful things to see and do. Some of our favorite moments were spent on our wine tour/tasting of the Russian River Valley in Sonoma County (delicious wines.......and beautiful landscaped countryside). I am very excited for our first shipment of wines to arrive next month! Walking across Golden Gate bridge, hiking in a redwood forest, touring Alcatraz prison and other fun sites around the city, relaxing in the sunshine, watching movies, chatting, laughing, eating.......AAAAHHHHH, what memories we made! Thanks to Celie for arranging the trip. It was awesome!!!!!! and also a special thanks to all of the Cairney men, the Jensen men, and Papa and Nanny Suhr for holding down the forts while we were all gone - you guys are the best!

Now it's back to the regular routine...school and preschool for the kids is going well. Soccer is keeping us busy during the week with practices and weekend games for Kate. That is fun for all of us. Tomorrow morning she starts chess club at school and is super pumped about that!

Chess club??? Kate, your Grandpa Cairney can teach you all about how to play chess, just like he did your Dad. Oops, I guess that probably isn't a good recommendation. :) Anyway, have fun and root, root, root for the Cubbies!
