Adventures around SF

We have really enjoyed getting out and seeing the beautiful city that we live in. We love to go for drives, motorcycle rides, train rides, and walks around San Francisco and the surrounding areas. There are so many great views around. Yesterday, we decided to take the motorcycle over the Golden Gate Bridge where we stopped at the Marin Headlands (where we got some great pictures of the bridge and the city) and then at Muir Woods (the redwood forest).

New Bed

For Christmas, we decided to get eachother a new mattress because ours was giving us back trouble. We bought an Angel Beds mattress, which is similar to Tempur-Pedic. Unfortunately it came in a huge akward box that weighed around 100lbs while Adam was out of town. Rachel managed to get it set up with Ginger's help. We have loved it ever since the first night we slept on it and would never go back to another mattress again!


Our new mattress... amazing
that it fits in this box!

look at the cute little paw prints
all over the mattress!


Ginger decided to crawl in the
pillow case while I made the bed.

Day Trip to Vegas!

One of the many benefits of Adam working for the airline is the free flight benefits. We decided to use those benefits one Tuesday to take a day trip to Las Vegas. Neither of us had ever been there before so we decided to spend the day just walking around the strip and taking in the sights. We had an enjoyable trip and will definitely have to go back some time when we have a little more time to spend.

Holidays '07

Rachel had to work Christmas Eve and Christmas day '07 :( Adam was very sweet and cooked a big Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve and we exchanged gifts that night. After work on the 25th, Rachel headed to the airport where she caught the midnight flight to Minnesota. She spent about a week at home visiting family and friends and really enjoyed her trip. Her favorite part of the trip was visiting with her sister Melanie who was recently diagnosed with cancer. Adam and Ginger missed her a lot and were very happy for her to get back on the 1st of January. Adam headed to Dallas for work training Jan 7-13th. We missed eachother a lot with all of our travels and are happy to both be home together now!
