More of San Fran

We went down to Pier 39 and saw the famous sea lions. This time of year most of them are mating so there wasn't as may as what we had expected, but we got to see them. One day we took these cars for our tour of the city. They are called Go Cars. What it is is a go cart that has a GPS system (we named her veronica)that tells you where to drive and see the city. This was the best, this little car took us all over the city but not on the busy high way. It was much better than taking one of those bus tours because it took you to places that the buses couldn't go. Our first stop was the golden gate bridge, then thru a neighborhood that Robin Williams lived. She didn't really tell us which one it was but we guessed it was the big one on the corner with the 2 security trucks parked out front. We also went to the beach,golden gate park(that was just unbelievable this is also where Strawberry Hill is that was made famous by the Beatles) the pseudo(sp)(also where George Lucas has his studio where he does the star wars movies Chuck and Keeley
Zach and I. He really wanted to drive but he had to be 18.

and last but not least we drove down Lombard St. the crookedest street there is. It was just out of this world with all the Hydrangeas in bloom.

More later!

Back from Cali

I have finally uploaded my 763 photos from our trip. Here are a few pictures from our window of our hotel room. We were one block from the water. Very cool. Cool electric trolley car!!

This is Alcatraz. We could see it from our window. We told the kids that if they weren't good this where we would send them. We tried to do the tour but it was booked up. If I had know that we need to make reservation to see it I would have done it before we left.

More Later

XOXO

Keeley left for church camp today. This is her first camp to ever go to. They best thing is that it is at Texas A&M in College Station. This is were my husband went to school and now the kids want to go there as well. I think she is going to have such a good time. Before she left we did a little family Birthday party for her. I gave her this box that I found http://artsymama.blogspot.com/ . This box is very rair. They no longer make this candy. It's so
cool that it is her name to the T. We can never find things with her name on any thing unless we have them put it on after the fact.

This is what was inside the box. Kari asked me what her favorite color was and what she was into these days.

These are for Keeley's birthday. When do you stop doing party's for little girls. Boys are so different. We stopped doing party's for Zach a long time ago, but it was always hard to do party's for Zach being his birthday is Dec. 26. Anyways I thought that they came out so cute.

XOXO
