July/August Surprise!

 At the beginning of July Mike and I decided to start trying for a baby. On August 3rd I took a pregnancy test that said I was pregnant! On August 30th I went to my first Dr.'s Appointment and found out that I was 7 weeks and 4 days. Here is a picture of our little peanut that we affectionately nicknamed Unsub for unidentified subject (because we wont know the sex until Nov. 20th.)

Here are some pictures from week 12

May: Our wonderful Grandma, Layle Miller passed away. The silver lining was getting to see all of our family.

4 Mile Hike At Yosemite

This has got to be one of my favorite hikes of all time! It was so unbelievably beautiful. It was actually 4.6mi each way and windy switchbacks the entire time, but it was well worth it. at every turn the whole valley opens up to breathtaking vistas and sheer cliffs. It ends with seeing the Jewel of the valley, Half Dome. If you ever have a chance to do this take it!

p.s. We weren't so cute by the end

The Coast

After Christmas Mike took me to San Francisco again and then on to the Beautiful Californian Coast!

Christmas!!

Christmas was Great. We had one Christmas when Dory was here so we could all open our stockings but here are a few from Christmas Morning

I Also made an etching of Window Blind Peak for my Dad.

I also made this stars for my nieces and nephews. Sorry to the Pollastro's who haven't gotten theirs yet.

Dory's Visit.

Dory came to visit us. It was the best time. she came Dec. 16th-22nd. I didn't have a camera, and my phone camera was even acting up so I wont be able to post those until she gives me her pics. It was great though seeing so many different places and going on so many different adventures. I miss ya already!

Even More has been going on!

On Dec. 10th Mike took me to San Francisco For the first time!

We walked all over Fisherman's wharf and ate Clam Chowder out of a San Francisco Sour Dough Bowl made at Boudins! It was amazing!
