San Francisco

Hello San Francisco
We had the opportunity to go on a fun trip with our great friends Melissa and Gregg, for 2 reasons #1 it was Melissa's 30th Birthday that weekend and #2 It was a late Anniversary trip for Blake and I as well as a last trip before new baby arrives! Such a fun time


this is Lombard St, we didn't go down it - just loved the view from on top

more fun roads on the Cable Car

The skinniest Restaurant I've been in - yummy breakfast though :)

China Town, we visited the place they make fortune cookies

Fisherman's Wharf
Yummy food, great shops!

We toured a WWII ship, very cool and the guys were in Heaven
They could have stayed on that thing all day!







They had the name Powell on EVERYTHING, I did feel a bit Famous!



We went to a Farmers Market at the Ferry Building
A-Mazing, Blake tried Caviar for the first time - let just say he's NOT a fan :)


We were able to go to the Utah Utes football game and watch my brother Greg play!


on our last day we went to Alcatraz and enjoyed the tour, I do think they should work on the air circulation issue on the ferry you take across to get to Alcatraz, I was dying and besides it's not the cheapest tour I've been on - they can afford to buy a few fans :) However worth it if you are in the San Fran area!

Halloween Stuff


We went to the Pumpkin Patch with Gregg & Melissa Rupp & Lucy, kids had a fun time trying to pick a good pumpkin! I was just happy that Weston didn't break any (he probably picked up 8 and dropped each one) oops!


By the look on Weston's face you can tell he was mischievous that night



Stella and Lucy LOVED the little pumpkins, I secretly think they thought they were all balls





The kids went on the Cow Train and Stella wasn't so sure about it, Blake ended up riding with her!




Corn Maze fun!



Carving our Pumpkin, my kids think the "guts" are SO nasty and hate touching them - Stella loved it and even tried to eat it!





Time for Trick Or Treating
Blake was a Pirate with Weston, Ashlyn was a Barbie and Stella was Super Girl, Me being giant and pregnant I decided to be an
"8 Ball"



This picture cracks me up, The sign says to take 2 pieces of candy - I can't figure out if Stella looks like she's telling Weston "you should grab all of it" or "I'm watching you, you better only take 2"


Ashlyn and Charlotte

Stella our Super Girl


Weston and Henry


Our Family Halloween Picture! Yay for Blake dressing up :)
