San Francisco Here we come!


Here we are waiting for our cruise around the
Bay.

We enjoyed watching these seals as they laid
in the sun. They were so noisy.


Shopping at Union Square


The view from our room 17th floor.



Here is David showing us the public bathroom



Touring Alcatraz





Golden Gate Bridge and lots of Sea Gulls.






Waiting for a ride on the Trolley







In our room







David and I had bought 2 tickets last year
from my sister Kathy who works for U.S Air
We could fly anywhere that
U.S Air fly's and we had a year to use
the tickets. Well, with only 3 days left
to go we decided to fly to San Francisco.
What a good choice we made.
There was never a dull moment we
were busy from sun up to sun down.
The weather was beautiful and we rode
on Trolley's, electric buses, the Bart,
and a double Decker bus. We also cruised
under the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz.
We did a lot of walking and ate at some
yummy restaurants. It was a lot of fun
spending time together. We are talking
and making plans for our next vacation.

Merry Christmas to my little Reindeers!







It has been a busy month of decorations,
practicing our songs, and lots of
excitement as we have been preparing and
waiting for our Preschool Christmas program.
It is finally here!
On Wednesday and Thursday we
had fun singing, eating and opening gifts.
I have so much fun being with these
wonderful children! They have really
brightened up my Holidays. I hope
they have a Merry Christmas. I will
be happy to see them the first of the year.

We wish Grant and Heath Happy 20th Birthday!





Our boy's are in far away lands
serving missions. I couldn't let this
special day go by with out wishing
them a Happy Birthday!! I do
miss them, but they love their
missions with all of their hearts, and
this is where they want to be, serving
the Lord and teaching the Gospel. It
is such a blessing to receive their emails
and to hear of all their wonderful
experiences.
We are so grateful for our boy's and I
wish I could give them big hugs and kisses,
but I will have to wait 16 months.
On Christmas Day we will be talking to them.
I CAN'T HARDLY WAIT!!
The boy's emailed us yesterday and we are
making arrangements for those long awaited
phone calls!
I searched thru some of my scrapbooks for
pictures of Grant and Heath. It was so much fun.
I cried a little and laughed a little and 2 hours
later I was still looking at pictures and
remembering all the memories we had together
as a family when they were little.
WOW, Where has all the time gone?

The Parade in Florence






















David and I along with my mom
and dad had fun going to Florence Az.
Krisiti, Jason and the kids were in
the Parade. Jason has opened a Dentist
office in Florence. It was a fun day
and we got a tour of Jason's newly
decorated office. Then we enjoyed
eating some Mexican food on the way home.
