Fun Weekend

My cute mom came to visit a couple of weeks ago.  We had so much fun!  We went out to the De Young Museum to see the Yves Saint Laurent exhibit.  It is so amazing!  Another day we drove down to Napa Valley.  All the mustard seed was out so there was fields and fields of yellow blossoms.  Thanks for coming mom, we love you!

Napa Valley

We stopped and had a little picnic.  This is me trying to balance a grape on my nose.  

My mom knew of a really neat antique store, that had this huge adirondack chair in front of it.  There was a sign not to take pictures but we couldn't resist.

Castle De Amorosa

We went to this amazing replica of an Italian castle in Napa.

It even has a real moat and drawbridge!

The disney movie Bedtime Stories was filmed here.  This is part of the movie set.

The castle had a really torture chamber.

It was creepy to see all the things they used to use to torture people.

Christian The Lion Full version Music Video HQ

My cute sister Tyree told me about this cute story of Christian the Lion.  It is sweetest things I have ever seen. These two guys found this cub lion at Harrods in London.  They bought him and named him Christian. They raised him in Australia. He got too big for their flat so they decided to introduce him back into the wild in Africa. A year later they wanted to go visit him. They were told that Christian wouldn't remember them, but they still went. You can see how happy he is to see them! He even introduced his wife to them. (No I didn't add this music but I love the dramatic effect)

Muir Woods

Brady and I went to Muir Woods National Monument today with the Kristine, Jason, and Ben Couch.  It was a beautiful day, pretty warm and sunny.  We drove out early in the morning to the park and got an AMAZING parking spot;)  We walked around the redwoods and went to Stinson Beach after to eat lunch.  We had so much fun!

Chinese New Year Parade

Brady and I went downtown a couple of weekends ago with the Brownings and the Haynies to go see the Chinese New Year Parade. There were a ton of people downtown.  We found a pretty good spot to watch the parade.  After we went to CPK and had a delicious dinner. 

We opened a fancy steak restaurant in downtown san fran, didn't you know:)

Happy Valentine's Day

Both Brady and I had school on Thursday but we had a really nice dinner at Outback.
