San Diego Fun and Sun

February 2nd through 5th we got the opportunity to meet up with our friends Mike and Leslie in San Diego. All of us have wanted to go to the zoo so we made it happen and much more.

View from our hotel room, Double Tree Downtown San Diego.

Zoo day.

Skyfari tram ride.

Some of the animals!

We spent from around 9:30am to 4:30pm at the zoo. Makes for a long day of walking but it was awesome.

Day 2 we spent discovering the coast. First stop La Jolla, Chilren's Pool.

Seal watching at Children's Pool.

Barfly restaurant for lunch in La Jolla.

Dog Beach, Ocean Beach.

Cabrillo National Monument, Point Loma. Also the sight of Fort Rosecrans Military Reservation, an active military reservation for the U.S. Navy.

Whale watching from the shore at Point Loma Light House. We actually saw a few whales but no pictures.

Sunset at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery.

Last Day in San Diego we attended church at The Rock Church. Then we headed back to the coast, specifically Sunset Cliffs, Ocean Beach.

At Sunset Cliffs we watched the surfers....

And played in the crashing waves!

We're back in Pittsburgh and are full force into baby classes and appointments. I am still working and loving it and we are working on some future plans. As always we will keep you posted. Love you all.

January

We spent Christmas and New Years in Montana and drove back through Minnesota for a few days. While in Minnesota, Tuff went ice fishing with my sister Dana's fiance Greg and our friend Brad.

Greg cut the fishing holes for the eager crew.

Tuff had two lines in and caught these two at the same time.

A few Northern Pike from the day.

When we returned to Pittsburgh Tuff bought a juicer and has been juicing everyday since. It actually tastes really good!

The pulp from the first juicing experience. We are finding ways to use it....in omelets, smoothies, breads, etc.

Tuff celebrated turning 29 January 23rd. Lucky for us some friends of our were already getting together for dinner so we were able to celebrate with them at Nicky's Thai Kitchen on north side Pittsburgh.
