ThRee giRls!
What a day! We had the most incredible day today! We started with Pink pancakes made by Melissa R., a drive into the city on the most beautiful clear day. With the help of our Garmin GPS system we have wonderful ease getting to all destinations. Our first stop was Union Square. I left the girls and jeff there so I could run into Britex Fabrics. My Mecca!! You can't even imagine how happy i was to be in there. (my dream is to some day fly to S.F. witheach of my girls to buy the fabric for their wedding dress) While I was in the store Jeff got his taste of all three girls. He was in the plaza at Union Square getting some hot chocolate for the girls when Caroline spilled hers all over Annie Kate's butter yellow pants. So when i come back up annie kate is covered in hot chocolate. We looked all over for a Gap but ended up running into Macy's. To make a long story short we had a hard time finding a pair of plain pants. This store was a little too hip for us. Annie kate walked out with a pair of guess jeans with rhinestones all over the front. it was seriously killing me, but she just kept thanking Caroline for spilling the drink on her. We then went down to Pier 39 and saw the sea lions, the merry go round was closed, we had cotton candy, fresh donuts and caroline chased the birds everywhere. We then headed out to the golden gate park and went over the bridge and then to Sausalito. We had yummy ice cream at this little ice cream parlor. I had peppermint fudge. As we were leaving Annie Kate and I ran to a artist loft above the ice cream shop. Here name is Connie Pecorao. Here is her website. Nonamegirl.com
The above photo is one of her original drawings. Her prices are SO reasonable and she has darling cards, prints and even t-shirts. She gave annie kate a tank with her western girl on a horse on the front. Annie Kate put it right on and wore it the rest of the day. But if you need some prints or gifts for a little girls room take a look her stuff is darling.
We then went to Scott and Melissa's home in the Marina District. They will be selling it in a few weeks so we had to get our fill in before they move. We love their home and love spending time there. The kids made art projects, (jeff's brother scott is an artist, incredible one at that, so his son has adopted his ways) posters, clay figures, ate pancakes, watched movies and then did a little karaoke. Scott brought out his karaoke machine. What a blast. Jeff and Scott were on that all night long. It started with guns and roses and then winded down to air supply and some love ballads. Those two were in heaven. We didn't leave until after 10:00 pm and didn't plan on staying past 6:00. We had to drag ourselves out. We will miss visiting them in the city. We had a great day with our three girls, Scott, Melissa, Jack, Audrey and Matthew. Here is a link to see our photos of the day! Photos!

It sounds so fun. I hadn't seen this post, but found the pictures on your smugmug site this morning so I'd seen the fun things you've been doing. It's nice to hear the stories that go with them.

Is that huge house theirs? I thought it had to be a reception center or something.
