San Francisco weekend

Jon's work threw a tailgate party Saturday for the employees and families. So Jon, Sam, and I flew up on Friday for a fun filled three day weekend. we decided the twins were better of staying home w Alyssa. We landed at SFO and took the Bart train. Jon went to work while Sam and I headed to the East Bay.

Here's Sam watching a movie on the long train ride!

Sarah picked us up in her convertible!

We had lunch and walked around Danville for a bit before I had to go see Michelle to get my hair done. Sam spent the afternoon with Sarah. They went and got pedicures! Poor Emily was home sick so she didnt get to play w her much. Jack and Jordan watched Sam while Dave Sarah Jon and I went to our favorite little sushi restaurant in danville. We got back and played apples to apples for a bit then went to our hotel in Walnut Creek.

On Saturday morning we went to Castro Valley and hung out with the Hodges. Sam and Taylor didnt miss a beat and were playing hard together! We sure do miss them!
Laron Dominic and Jon
Me and Julie!

We even made it to the Bayfair mall for some play time! Just like old times!

Saturday night was the work party. They had a catered tailgate party with a bouncey house and everything. Both Jon and I were stuffed from lunch! We watched around 4 innings before Sam made us take her to the play area...

The coke bottle is a big slide!

They have a little baseball diamond for the little kids. She was almost to big for it. The guy was like this is probably her last night. So weird to think she is getting to be to big for things!

We decided to leave at the 7 inning...the Giants were losing and it was a sold out game so traffic eas going to be teriffic if we stayed. We decided to drive over to Ghiradelli square for an ice cream sunday. We parked in the parking garage that was $2.25 for 20 minutes. We walked up there and sam really like the fountain so we took a few picutres then walked through the store so we could get our free piece of chocolate. We then went to the ice parlor part and ordered our banana chocolate ice cream sunday. It was so good that I wished we had ordered two. (Jon said that was the fat girl in me talking) Sam finished the last little bit and put the bowl back on the table and said "let's go now!" We went outside and she wanted her picture taken again a few times then we went to the car. It was our 17 minute cross town dessert. We only had to pay $2.25.


She said Mom "take a picture of me next to these pretty floweres"
Sammy and Daddy!
We headed back to another hotel in South San Francisco for the night. Jon got up early and spent the day watching football with Marty while Sam and I went back to the East bay for visits w the Woods and the Zinks!

Eric and Sam getting close to the ducks!

We had a great fun trip. Very tiring as pretty much every hour was fun filled. We missed our twinkles alot here is a phone conversation Samantha had w them. I jsut caught the last part of it!

The twins had a good time wth Alyssa. There were a few little mishaps here and there (one big one was Sydney rubbed her poop all over her wall and window-glad I didnt have to clean that one) but I think Alyssa had a good time with them. They all were happy to see us!!
