I got the opportunity to go to San Franciso with Nick the beginning of May. He was there on business for a few days meeting with some doctors that he works with. I almost did not go because once we booked the trip I found out it was Mother's Day weekend and that my kids would be singing on Sunday morning at church (Presleigh's first time). However, thanks to the convincing and help of my sister-in-law I decided to go. The kids stayed with their Aunt Charla, Uncle Tony, cousin Lilah, and Gramma and away I flew. I am so glad I went! It was kind of a whirlwind because I was there one night and Nick and I did a lot of driving around sight-seeing and eating yummy food and then we came home. :)

Alcatrez ( hope I'm spelling that right) :)
As of this moment I can't remember the name of this restaurant we ate at Friday night but it was beautiful and yummy and right off of the harbor.

San Francisco's golden gate bridge
On our way to Napa Valley Saturday morning we went over the golden gate bridge.
Most beautiful little town in Napa Valley, called Yountville. This is the restaurant we ate at, the French laundry. I personally had never heard of it but apparently it is famous. :)
Waiting in the courtyard.
This is Nick and I with Dr. Ali and his wife Mary. Meeting Dr. Ali and his wife was the whole reason I flew out to California. Dr. Ali had made reservations for the 4 of us months ahead of time to try and get into this place and they wanted me to join them. Dr. Ali is a cardiologist in Lubbock and when Nick was still a TFE for Medtronic he worked with him often. Now that Nick is a sales rep. he rarely travles to Lubbock. They are very kind and have two youngs girls.
The garden across the street where the restaurant, Chinese Laundry, grows a lot of its food
Nick and I in front of the restaurant. It took us about 5 hours to eat here. It was a 9 course lunch/dinner!
Well.... because our amazing lunch/dinner was so long we missed our flight home! I was quite upset at first because I was afraid I would miss the kids singing at church and not only that but on mother's day. Nick figured it out though, as he awlays does, and we left in the middle of the night and arrived about 6 a.m. Texas time.
The reason we rushed home from San Francisco! Tht is Kaden singing in the white shirt.
Presleigh and her cousing Lilah in their matching dresses that Gramma gave them. Presleigh has the pink bow.
Our little performer! Presleigh loves to be on stage and very much enjoyed singing!
