San Francisco '08

Jim and I visited San Francisco over Labor Day weekend this year. We went to attend the wedding of our good friends Pat and Colette. Sadah stayed behind with Grandma and Grandpa Mangelson but before you start to feel sorry for her just know that they took her to Build-a-Bear workshop and bought her a bear for her birthday. She also got to go to a family party (my great-niece Kyra was blessed) so she had plenty of fun. The wedding was beautiful and it was wonderful to see Pat and Colette again. We also saw our friend Rich who recently moved back to San Francisco from New York. Rich gave us a tour of Pixar Animation Studios (famous for such films as Toy Story, Finding Nemo, & Monster’s Inc.) where he now works. It was really cool to go behind the scenes and see what goes into making an animated feature. We also got to visit with our friends Mohammed and Romina in their nice apartment overlooking the bay. Along with visiting friends we also got in some shopping at the pier and in Chinatown. It was a fun little trip. For pictures click here.
