San Francisco iphone shots


The last of our San Francisco pictures! Yay! Then I can go back to blogging about our crazy life. By the way–these pictures are not in chronological order!
 
Have I mentioned how much I love the houses there? 😉 Seriously. I stopped so many times to take pictures of houses every time we walked or drove anywhere. But I won’t bore you with all of them…just a few of my favorites.

1) Don entered into the “man bag” world for this trip and it was great having someone else to lug around camera stuff part time! He loves that I call it his purse 😉 2) The Full House house!! 3) and 4) Those famous painted ladies!!

1) and 2) I mentioned in my last post about an amazing bakery that we went to. It’s called Mr. Holmes Bakehouse. They serve cruffins (croissant + muffin) every day in a limited quantity. We got there wayyyy too early. They roll out at 9am and we expected a line to form pretty early based on what I had heard. We got there around 7:30, grabbed a life changing chocolate croissant and a donut and just hung out until we started the line around 8:40. I would suggest getting there around 8:45 and not super early (at least for a weekday.) The flavor that day was supposed to be brownie walnut but for some reason they were serving key lime pie. I’m definitely not a lime fan but the cruffin itself was amazing and I would DEFINITELY put it on my list of recommendations. And while you’re there, get some chocolate croissants!
 
3) We also tried Bi-rite Creamery which was supposedly a big deal there. To me, it was nothing special but I do love salted caramel and chocolate ice cream together. 4) Ghirardelli was connected to our hotel so we grabbed these amazing chocolate dipped waffle cones with Ghirardelli chocolate ice cream. Now THAT was good ice cream.

I had to make this collage of the back of my head because it totally cracks me up. 1) Painted Ladies 2) Muir Woods 3) Golden Gate Bridge 4) Twin Peaks

FOOD! 3 of the 4 burger places we had while we were there. 1) Super Duper Burger–it was pretty good but nothing too amazing. 2) hotel breakfast 3) In-n-Out 4) Causwells (not our favorite!)

May iphone photos


I have quite a few pictures for the month of May so I’ll just get straight to it…

**also, I’m vowing to figure out how to better align everything so you won’t have to do so much scrolling to look through pictures. I’ve just been a little busy lately 🙂

On rare occasions, I take my kids to the park by myself spontaneously, they are all perfectly behaved, and I feel like I am finally getting the hang of this whole mom thing. Unfortunately, that only makes up a small percentage of our reality.

June is filling up with lots of graduations, showers, parties, and birthdays to celebrate! Very tiring– but exactly what I need to help pass the time because we’re hopefully going to be meeting the newest Roberts baby in just over a month!!
Happy June!!
