One Year Older and Wiser Too?

March 4 was my birthday and we were in San Francisco for it, but despite his long hours and being in a different city, Casey made it a great one for me. He surprised me with flowers and then took me to Sutro's at the Cliffhouse for dinner (http://www.cliffhouse.com/sutro/index.html). It was a really nice restaurant and a very pleasant surprise for me. The chef and staff were very nice and accomodating. They sent over free food for Weston, a free appetizer, the chef came over and fed Weston ice cream, and gave us two free desserts. They also gave me a signed Happy Birthday menu as a keepsake for the evening. Everything was absolutely delicious and I was in heaven. Thank you baby! The next Sunday we had my birthday dinner with family (dinner by Ashley, cake by Charity) and I opened my presents. Thanks to everyone that called, emailed, and sent cards as well. You all made my 26th birthday wonderful!

I left my heart in San Francisco...

I just liked this title, but it's not really true. Casey had another 7 week audit rotation in San Francisco. It was fun to see more of the city and everything, but by the time it was over, we were glad to be back in Roseville. Here are a few of my favorite things/pictures from our visit.

The Golden Gate Bridge The Exploratorium
