Happy Birthday Melinda

We went to Wendover last weekend for Melinda's 21st birthday. Yay! It was a good time with all our friends, I hope we can do it more often. We had a hot tub in our suite, so we kicked the boys out (well we tried) and had some fun with just the girls. Here's some pictures.

The big game!


We headed on our way to the game in the cab. Luckily we left plenty of time to get there cause the traffic of 60 thousand people finding thier way there is pretty bad! When we finally arrived to the stadium i started to get so excited! I just couldn't wait to get in and see where our seats actually were and how close we'd be. We started looking for the seats and found the section. As we headed to the actual seats we kept getting closer and closer to field. We sat on the 13th row! Just sitting that close made me so much more excited! They came out on the field right in front of us. We got to see all of my favorite players and coach come out. The game started and was a great game right from the start. The 49ers started with the ball and marched down the field to score first with a touchdown! After that the 49ers gave up 17 straight pionts to go down 17-7 at the half. I was a little bumbed, but still thought they ha a chance to come back. The 3rd quarted started and the Niners headed down the field again with another touchdown! This one by the running back Foster. The 49ers were only down 3 now and were ready to score again by the end of the 3rd. As the 4th quarter started Jason Hill caught a pass and dove in for another touchdown right in front of us! It was so exciting. The score being 21-17 for the 49ers i was excited and now a little nervous hoping they could keep the lead. They added a field goal to put the Niners up by a full touchdown with about 5 minnutes left. To add to the game Washington put a drive together and scored a touchdown to tie it up with only about 3 minnutes in the game. Shaun Hill lead the 49ers back down the field down to the 22 yard line. With only 3 seconds left on the clock Joe Nedney kicked a 39 yard field goal to win the game with no time left on the clock! The game couldn't have been and better to go! I had the best time!

San Francisco

San Francisco was.... AMAZING. It was so nice to get away from everything here and have a little trip to ourselves. We got in late Friday night and just went to bed, but Saturday we explored all of what San Fran had to offer.

China Town was less then 1/2 a block by our hotel so we walked there. Once you go into one shop, you've seen them all right? It was still fun to see what kind of stuff they had. Here are a few pictures from China Town. We stopped to eat delicious Chinese Food, other then the fact that our egg rolls were cold and were probably sitting there for a few days everything else was yummy. Jake wanted to buy that hat to wear to work, weirdo. They were selling those spider things as earrings. Who in their right mind would wear those?






























After China Town, we walked down the the Pier. 2 1/2 miles later! There were a bunch of street performers, it was really fun to see. We decided we wanted to see the Aquarium and the Wax Museum. Both were very interesting and we had a good time. Here are a few pictures from that.































This was just the first day we were there. There is more to come, the whole reason why we went GAME DAY! I'll get that posted as soon as possible.
