spring break: san francisco style

in an effort to consolidate our week in san francisco into one post, i am going to categorize the pictures...i think this could be fun. if somehow the pictures do not convey it, we had a wonderful time and loved every minute we got to spend with our san francisco family.


first things first...let's start with the food.
(1) i finally enjoyed my first (and second) taste of in-n-out burger...yum, yum. (2) barney's is a local sf burger place near elijah's school...also delicious. (3-4) a fabulous cookie bakery...and no, the boys are not throwing gang symbols or anything. that is what brian wilson of the giants does after he pitches well (5) my "regular" at mama's...i love that i have a "regular" in san francisco. (6) an excellent pizza place that lee & ben visited before they... (7) ...brought us back some delicious cupcakes.
now obviously we don't love food more than we love the boys (and ben & shauna), so without further ado:
(1) sam, the bird-scaring monster (shauna & i decided we should create a monster book during this trip) (2) sweet brothers on a playground before elijah's first baseball game (3) more cool kids on a different playground (4) sam being sam (5) asher loving life (6) a rare moment of all three together & still (7 & 8) asher & uncle lee (that kid loves him some uncle lee!) (9 & 10) elijah and sam's swim lessons (11) a cool crosswalk (12 & 13) the very first epic church life groupi mentioned baseball before. elijah did not just have one baseball game but two! and an opening day parade!
(1 & 2) opening day parade for san francisco little league (3-4) game #1 (5) sam bunting & asher giving the signs to uncle lee (6-7) game #2
the sights of san francisco...
(1-2) elijah's school play yard (3) the painted ladies! (full house theme song, anyone?) (4) coit tower (5) this house says a lot about the city (6) epic kids :)

the pacific ocean! (see if you can spot baby pilgreen)
