Memorial Day Weekend

Coming back to real life from a three-day-weekend is always the worst.  That might sound weird coming from a stay-at-home mom, but it's true.  I love when we can all be together and I always miss Aaron more when he goes back to work after a long weekend.

We had a great weekend though!  On Saturday, we went down to the Oakland Temple.  Aaron and I got to do a session, while Ben and Alicia watched Hannah for us.  They're the best and Hannah adores them!  (Just watch throughout this post - basically if Hannah is smiling, it's because Alicia was there.)  The Oakland Temple is beautiful and it was so nice to be there.  I love the temple and the Spirit and peace that I feel there.    Thanks Ben and Alicia for letting us go!
Ok, picture time.




After our session, the five of us went to the cutest little french bakery called La Ferine.  The morning rolls were to die for.  Thanks for the great suggestion, Maria!



On Monday, we took our first big trip to The City.  We had planned to go to the San Francisco Zoo with Ben and Alicia, but it was pretty rainy and cold.  That's Northern California for you, I guess.  We ended up going to Ghirardelli Square and walking through Pier 39 instead and it didn't disappoint.

I love the hilly streets.



About to consume our incredibly delicious brownie sundae.

Hannah wanted chocolate too.  Good thing they come packaged.



Had to get a pirate picture.  Arrrgh!

Going home over the Golden Gate Bridge.  It was so foggy you could barely see it.

My cousin, Erin, and her husband, Bryson, were in the area so they came over for barbecued hamburgers, games, and skookies.  

Summer is on its way!
