San Francisco

Well, I realize that I am probably the last person on the face of the earth to have a blog, but I finally thought I would join the blog world and no longer just be a blog stalker:) I don't promise anything super exciting or insightful, but hopefully it will be worth the read.

So, for our big debut...(drum roll please
:)) I thought I would add a few pictures from our Christmas. We decided this year that we would go on a vacation with my parents instead of exchanging gifts. We only did stockings (which turned out great b/c anything too big to fit in a stocking was just placed next to the stocking and still called a "stocking stuffer").

We spent the week in San Francisco. It was so much fun!

Here is our Golden Gate Bridge picture. Despite our patient attempts to wait out the fog, this was the best we did:)

















We took a night cruise to Alcatraz on our first day in SF. The view from the boat was amazing!













While at Alcatraz, Karson did something that really ticked me off:) hehe...love you honey:)













We visited several wineries in Napa and Sonoma on Day 2. It was very foggy, but still very beautiful scenery!















Later that night, we ate dinner on the balcony and watched the people in Union Square.














We walked up and down Lombard street which is famous for being very steep with lots of turns:)














We visited the Exploratorium, which was beautiful. These are my parents...aren't they cute:)?













And us...aren't we cute:)? j/k


















View from Coit Tower...













This is the BART station at Union Square and the sight of my near death experience...okay, so maybe not that near death, but right after we took this picture I was hit in the head by an empty Vodka bottle that somebody on the bridge decided that they didn't want anymore. Pretty exciting, huh?



















Karson loved playing with his new Canon 50D. It takes pretty good night shots:)













And...New Years! It was CRAZY in Union Square! Pretty much anything goes...I mean ANYTHING!



















Karson and I have been together for six years and this was our first New Years' Eve together. We enjoyed our first ever New Years Eve kiss:)



Wishing you a fabulous 2009 with many blessings!
