I am happy to say that retirement is progressing nicely around our house. But we have been very busy!
Emma.
This little darling has stolen our hearts. I got over to see her a few times this fall and she is as endearing as ever. Here she is with her proud daddy! I cannot get enough of her sweet face.
Girls' Day at Disneyland with every single on of my gals. We had the best time as you can see here.
And that 60 minute wait for Mickey... SO worth it!!!
San Francisco with Zach & Sierra.
What a fun time we had - eating and wandering and seeing the sights. This town has so much appeal time after time. We had some of the best egg custard cups ever from a place in Chinatown called Golden Gate Bakery. Our wait time was only 30 minutes and well worth it. We visited the Antique Vibrator Museum, and a great Cidery, called Upcider (www.upcidersf.com) - Amazing ciders!! Our boutique hotel, The Adagio on Geary, was centrally located with a nice happy hour bar and gorgeous rooms. Well Played Adagio! (www.marriott.com) Food... glorious food. From the best dim sum ever at Hong Kong Lounge on Geary Street to the ultimate Hawaiian Brunch at Aina (www.ainasf.com) to the wonderful array of Tiki Bars - this was a great weekend all around. Love these two.
Knee Replacement.
Not for me, mind you but for my hubby. He is now 5 weeks post-op and doing great and I have loved doing all the driving around town. Truly - so proud of his progress!
Fantasy Football.
This mindless sports debacle and competition among family members and friends has us rattled to the core on a weekly basis. Right this very moment - Mr. Smith and I are vying for 9th and 10th place out of 10 teams. Righteous. I'm pretty sure he's got me on this as his team is waaay better than mine. Not saying much - but we have enjoyed our weekly bouts, and have come to love the Philadelphia Eagles
and most notably, Carson Wentz.
This quarterback has thrown incredibly well on the field, and continues to shine as a role model and regular ole human being too.Gearing up for the holidays around here and looking forward to spending time with all our loved ones. Until next time :)
