Thanksgiving!!

Of all the Holidays Thanksgiving is probably my favorite.  Its a day to reflect on everything you have to be thankful for, to be with those you love, and to eat an amazing meal and RELAX!!  That is exactly the Thanksgiving I had, it was fun and the food was delicious! I even helped in the kitchen, which I love to do!
The flowers we brought for Cyndy,
they ended up being the centerpiece
of the table.
The potatoes Au Gratin, the dressing
(that is what you call stuffing not in
the bird), yams, and the green bean
casserole.

The amazing and beautiful turkey platter!

Flasback!! San Francisco

Green the City
This was a promotional move done by PG&E to promote a "green" life. In 3 different areas of the city they set up couches made of grass and took Polaroids.  We only made it out to 2 locations before we turned back. 2007.

Franklin Street.  

This is a building my family has owned for over 25 yrs and I love it. When I was young we did a bit of moving, having moved 7 times before I was 15, because of this spending every summer with my Dad at Franklin Street became the constant and now the building just feels like home.  Partly because of my childhood memories of doing chores and spending time with my Dad, but also because when I made the BIG move from Puyallup, WA to San Francisco I was lucky enough to get an apartment in that very building that is so close to my heart.  I lived in that studio for almost 4 years before I finally left it, moving to Walnut Creek for 10 months before making the 2nd BIG move of my life to Los Angeles.  Below are a couple pictures of the view my studio had of the city.

In this photo you can see O'Farrell Street on the

downtown to Union Sqaure in 8 blocks.
You can also see east out to the ocean and
when there are events at SBC stadium I
was able to watch the fireworks
