Oakland Temple

We took a trip to San Francisco yesterday for Stake Temple Day. We had our good friend, Chris, come along to babysit while we were in the temple. This is the first time we have been able to go since Jessica was born. It was so nice. It was a beautiful day...so beautiful that Jessica had to wear her sunglasses. Afterward we went to lunch at our favorite restaurant, Joe's Cable Car. Joe makes the best hamburgers ever. Then we went to a street fair and I bought some really cute barrettes for Jessica and me to share. We then went on a hunt to find the best dessert in Little Italy. I think we found it. It was such a fun day!

How lovely to go to the temple! We're still looking forward to our first post-baby trip. Right now it's 4-5 hours one way.... so we're waiting for our next home, coming soon. Then it'll only be an hour and we already have friends to swap babysitting with!!
Yay for your family. The hamburgers sounds gooooood....

I am finally blogging about our big trip to Hawaii last month. It was our 3rd anniversary and our dear friends, the Barnums, said we could come visit them anytime we wanted....so we did! Here are a lot of pictures, in no particular order: On the actual day of our anniversary, April 19th, Hank and I left the baby with a sitter and hit the town by ourselves. Since I wasn't a fan of the whole snorkling thing, we took a submarine ride to get a good view of the sea life. Yes, that is a real sea turtle in the real ocean, 100 ft underwater. I snapped this picture out my window. The view of Waikiki from our sub before we went under. The flag at the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. It has been raised to half mast everyday since the memorial was erected. Hank helping raise the flag first thing in the morning. "Give me gum gum, dumb dumb." Us and the Barnums at the Temple.

So Sleepy . . .

So, we may be terrible parents, but we thought this was so funny. Jessica wouldn't take an afternoon nap today and by dinnertime she was exhausted. She was so tired that she couldn't even chew her food. The best part was that Hank could not stop laughing at her and it was keeping her awake. This video was much longer, but I cut it down...because watching a baby fall asleep may not be as interesting to you as it was to us.
