Christmas with Celeste...
Happy December!! We kicked off the holiday season last night with Celeste! We had dinner at It's Italia in Half Moon Bay and then went to a local holiday production at our little theater group.
The food was fantastic, the performance was amazing and more importantly it was wonderful to share it all with Celeste!

Jim's visit for Thanksgiving...
Jim and Rex had two weeks off for vacation in November so they came for a visit! The weather cooperated beautifully - we had mostly clear sunny days although it wasn't particularly warm. Oh, well - it is November!
We didn't do a great deal, although we did manage to go for walks just about every day, which Rex thoroughly enjoyed, as did we. We packed picnic lunches and off we went - great way to while away an afternoon.
We did drive into San Francisco one evening after dinner to see the lights. It was quite amazing - the city is all decorated with Christmas lights and the huge tree at Pier 39 was lit. The city was a-buzz with people, out and about, shopping, etc. We also drove across the bay bridge to Treasure Island. While we were there we went to see "Bliss", the huge sculpture of the woman who we have posted on our blog before, as she is lit up at night. Quite amazing, but not photographic!
We enjoyed looking back at the cityscape from Treasure Island. It was a clear, calm night and lights twinkled on the bay. We also enjoyed the new LED "running" lights that were recently installed on the bay bridge between SF and Treasure Island - quite a light show!
Jim was here for Thanksgiving and we had a "group effort" dinner with lots of the normal Thanksgiving fare and some things that weren't so traditional but just as yummy!
Jim and Rex adapted to the "retired" lifestyle quite well and I'm sure that it's going to be a shock when Jim returns to work on Monday!
Thanks, Jim, for spending your vacation with us! It was great to hang out with you and Rex and just relax!
