Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving this year we had a special visitor, Scott. We all helped make dinner and then enjoyed watching movies and playing games. On Saturday, we ventured up to San Fransisco and got stuck on the trolley. The chain that pulls the trolley came undone and they had to call a truck to come and push us on the track. We enjoyed visiting Union Square. It was decorated for Christmas with a big tree and an outdoor skating rink. I think California is the only place I know that people skate outside during the winter in short sleeves. We also saw China town and the wharf. I can't wait to come home for Christmas, although, I think I will miss the 65 degree weather.

October Book Club

We enjoyed discussing the book Wicked at a coffee shop. We decided it was easier just to meet at a coffee shop then to host at someone's house, so this will probably be our new meeting place. After book club we walked to the used book store and picked out November's book together.

Halloween Parade

Halloween Carnival

Every year our school host a Halloween Carnival to raise money for our expenses. Each grade is in charge of making a booth. I also brought some cookies to sell at the bake sale. I have included a picture of my team and the fish pond our grade made.

Pumpkin Carving

David and I enjoyed carving our pumpkin this year. He was in charge of carving and I roasted the pumpkin seeds.

Golden Gate Bridge.

I finally crossed the Golden Gate Bridge! Since I moved to California, I have probably been to the bridge about 10 times; however, I have never actually walked across it. So my friend Katie and I decided to bike from Fisherman's Wharf to the Golden Gate Bridge and cross the bridge into Marin County. San Fransisco is normally freezing, but Saturday it was really perfect. The weather was even warmer then some of my trips to San Fransisco in July. I didn't even have to put on my jacket. Here are some picture of our adventure.

Red Hat Society

This post is for my mom. She loves the Red Hat Society, and I spotted the lovely ladies in San Fransisco at Peer 39. I thought she might enjoy this picture.
