Another Wedding = Another Fun Trip

Can you guess where we went this time? We had a reception to do in Oakland this past Friday. We were really excited. I had never been to San Fransisco before and Aaron had no memories from the time he had been. It was too long ago. The reception wasn't until the evening so we spent a good part of the day in S.F. doing the typical sight seeing. We didn't get to see everything we wanted so we'll just have to go back some time. We had so much fun!

This was when we got our rental car and then the next morning. Kade had a banana for breakfast and was super happy so we got a few pics.

Such a happy kid!

Aaron just can't seem to stay out of trouble....

My boys with all the boats behind them. You can also see the bay bridge if you look hard enough.

Alcatraz

Fisherman's Warf. Full of tourists but very fun. It's on Pier 39 and there is so much to do there. This is where we spent most of our time. We came unprepared. We didn't think it was going to be so cold. So a lot of the time we were trying to find sweatshirts so we wouldn't all freeze to death. It was really windy too. Still fun though.

The sea lions smell but they are fun to watch. They roll over and make lots of noises. Kade was in heaven. You can see even in one of the pictures above, he kept trying to look at the sea lions while I was trying to take pictures...

Look how excited he is to see the sea lions! He's drumming on the fence area. That's what he does when he's really happy.

Kade loves his juice box.

View of the city from where we were parked.

Cutest little house ever. I loved it but couldn't get a great picture of it because we were driving so this will have to do.

Just a few sights around S.F.

Kade and I rode the carousel at Pier 39. He was first riding one of the big bears or something like that, but he hated it. So I put him on the bench. The picture in the lower right corner is me imitating how Kade was acting! He was tired

We went to the Golden Gate Bridge and this is what Kade was doing the entire time we were there. Awesome! Oh well it's not like he would remember anyway!

This was our first attempt of getting a picture of the two of us in front of Golden Gate Bridge. After several failed attempts of getting us AND the bridge in one shot, we settled for a photo taken by another tourist. It's in the collage below...

Aaron striking an amazing pose!

Random sweet building!

San Fransisco is full of really neat architecture.

We saw a lot of really cool architecture and other fun stuff on our way out. Then we sat in CA traffic for 2 hours to get back. We got TO San Fransisco in 45 min, but back it took 2 HOURS!!

Then we finally made it to the wedding. Don't worry we weren't late. Good thing since that's what we were there for! It was beautiful! The couple was actually married on the 15th in the Salt Lake Temple, and then had a reception here in Utah. Since the bride was from CA though they had a huge reception there too. It was a lot of fun and we were glad they had us join them for that reception.

The centerpieces were so pretty!
