Birthday Week

Since my birthday fell on a weekday and it's not a 'milestone' year, I decided to be low key and just have a simple sailing excursion and dinner. My Mom and Sister came down, and after drinks at my apartment, we headed to the Embarcadero to start our adventure. We sailed with SF Sailing Company, which I sailed with for my 30th. It's such a great time and I wish I could do it once a week!

So is Cole!

That weekend, my girlfriends took me out to brunch, as we have done for everyone else in our group. It was such a marvelous way to celebrate JUNE 10th!

Tea Party

This past weekend we celebrated Rori turning 2! She had a tea party that was influenced by the Fancy Nancy books. Have you guys heard of Fancy Nancy? The books are wonderful and I adore (that's a fancy word for like or admire very much) the character.

Birthday!

I had such a fabulous day! Cole and I went to a few of my favorite spots before catching the Giants game. After packing my L.L. Bean tote bag with extra layers and a blanket (fog season makes night games super chilly), we headed down to the Embarcadero.

Our first stop was Hog Island Oyster Co. Situated inside the Ferry Building, it offers delicious food and amazing views of the bay.

The fog started to roll in, and I was so glad I brought extra layers.

We walked next door to my new favorite spot.

Expressing my gratitude to all the Facebook messages. Also, not drinking a Bud.

Sinbad's has great views.

Watching the ferries come in...

...and out.

It's about a 15 minute walk to the ballpark, and there's a ton of fun things to see on the way.

These fun sea life sculptures serve double duty. They are actually skate stops to prevent skateboarders from chipping away at the concrete.

Enough space to sit.

Boats and boats and boats and...

The park!

We had great seats.

Thank you all for the kind wishes and thoughtful cards!
