San Francisco... almost a month ago

I cannot believe it is the last week in June and Brad and I went on a trip the first week of June! Brad earned a reward trip (thanks honey!!) to San Francisco and we extended it to hang out with Christina! She was a WONDERFUL hostess and we had a great time. Here are some pictures from our trip...Oh, and don't worry about Ethan he was plenty spoiled in Holstein by grandma and Frank, grandpa and Connie, Uncles and Aunts, and great grandma Butcher! Here are some photos from our great getaway!


Our first night we went on a boat cruise and got to see the Giants stadium from a different view!
The next day we had a fabulous bike ride across the Golden Gate Bridge, pretty cool. 
 Please ignore the crooked helmet! How embarrassing! I have the world's smallest head and I should have had a child's helmet I guess!
 Brad cruising in front of me. I was proud that I was able to ride my bike AND take photo without falling off my bike or dropping my phone! These cars zooming by were more intimating then the height of the bridge.
All dressed up for a night out on Pioneer! We have made some good friends through the years by going to these reward trips, it is always fun to hang out again. Keep selling Brad- haha!

Some day we will learn to take a photo BEFORE we go out, so we look better, but that would take not being so LATE all the time!
We did Alcatraz, too. I think the pictures of inside are creepy, but I thought this view of the city from 'the rock' was neat!

We went out with Christina  and Michael one night and I of course have NO pictures, but a lame one from a bar in China Town, with none of us in it! I really need some help to capture moments! Anyways, here are some random photos of our trip out to Sonoma.

We had AMAZING weather while we were there! Unseasonably warm, yeah! That meant little fog too, which allowed for some great shots of the bridge!

Muir Woods, pretty neat!! These pictures don't give this place justice- they are so extremely HUGE- amazing!
 Yes, I have been playing around with Instagram- not good yet, but am learning.

We hung out in Sonoma while waiting for Christina and Michael to join us after work.
 
Brad took out the map of wineries in Sonoma Square and decided that we would start with the "a's"
 We headed then to St. Helena for the night and then did Napa, another gorgous day with amazing scenery! Christina and Michael were wonderful guides and we had such a good time with them!
 
Brad and Christina! 

We finished our trip with a Giants game, thanks to Ronnie for the tickets!
It was so much fun to get away, but we were sure excited to get home to squeeze our little man! I made mom keep him up really late so I could see him! Glad we got some photos sent of him while we were gone...
At the Omaha Zoo with grandma and Frank!
 
Swimming with Stella and Connie. Have some pictures with the pigs and papa, but don't have them loaded yet.

Great time had by all!
