San Francisco!

We drove over to Paradise California to have our every other spring break family holiday with Greg and Melissa. We look forward to the time we get to spend with them. We decided to have our holiday in San Francisco. We arrived on Wednesday and spent the late afternoon and evening visiting and playing. We got up and headed out first thing Thursday.
We spent the next two days checking out Fishermans Wharf, Union Square, Chinatown and Ghirardelli square. We put many, many mile on our shoes and had a marvelous time! We spent Saturday back in Paradise playing and crafting. The grownups stayed up late playing Canasta, which Melissa and I won every night except one! That's my best record for wins ever! We left early Sunday and made it home in time for a great supper made by Missy.
Missy and her family came to Utah to visit. We were gone, but it sounds like they had a good time! She had made a really yummy supper and I was so glad for good food and not having to make it. We stayed up late visiting and spent the morning visiting before they had to leave. We were glad to see them, but sad it was for a short time. Next time we'll have to coordinate our plans a little better.
All in all it was a great week, we're all tired and worn out, but with great memories and fun souvenirs!

That proofs it, I always thought there was a set of twins in there. They just decided not to be born the same year, so they could booth have their glory. Jason knew that Greg had some major medical through and he made his moms life easier by waiting a couple of years, But oh boy are they lookin more and more alike. nO WONDER STRANGERS DON;T GERT THEM STRAIGHT. hLAD YOU ALL HAD A GREAT TIME,

I don't think I should try my typing skills at 11:00 pm at night again. I would totally not be happy if my students would turn in a paper like that!
I certainly will check my spelling next time.

Looks like fun. I don't remember a whole lot about San Fransisco from when we used to live close to there.
