All About lil o' Me

My photo
Just call me your Budget Barista. I have been married for 20 years to the best man on this planet. He's sweet, caring, kind, but most of all he makes me laugh. We have Three adorable kids. A beautiful sweet pea girl, A 'superman' boy, and a love bug baby girl. We just love that we live where people vacation...where the ocean meets the sky. We live a wonderful life. I love my life and I thank Christ for giving it to me. Some random things about me are I enjoy baking, quilting, paper crafting, jewelry making, scrapbooking, and loving on my family. I am a Princess in the Kingdom of the King of Kings, diet coke drinking baby kisser. We are a homeschooling family but are part of a hybrid program where the children attend a 'classroom' 2 days a week and we do the rest at home. It's a blast. We also love to vacation and explore God's world around us. I think that's enough for now. :-)

Museum of History and Art special Wings of Gold exhibit til Sept.

Wings of Gold: Coronado & Naval Aviation
In early 1911, the United States Navy asked pioneer aviator and inventor Glenn Curtiss to train one of its officers to fly.  Curtiss chose a sandy, scrub-covered island in San Diego Bay as the location and Coronado became the birthplace of naval aviation. The Coronado Historical Association will participate in a national celebration of the Centennial of Naval Aviation with the themed museum exhibit, Wings of Gold: Coronado and Naval Aviation.  An original pilot’s uniform, the helmet of one the first female naval aviators, a model plane built by Glenn Curtiss and a national insignia that flew on aircraft from 1919-1940 are examples of other items that will be on view.
