Chinese New Year in Kaley's class

I was asked to tell Kaley's class about Chinese New Year. All the kids wore red and we celebrated by reading a book and giving out red envelopes.

Kaley, Ainsley and Anthony...

Running through the bike rack

The girls spent our last 15 minutes running back and forth through this bike rack.

Mommy and her girls

So much to see

Ainsley loved this bird. We tried to go into the puppet store, but it was closed. Probably a good thing, otherwise, I think we would've come home with a new puppet...or two.

Pier 43 Ferry Arch

Valentines Day horse and buggy

Very colorful street performer.

Sights at Pier 39

Snoozing Seal Lions

Oregon was playing UC Berkeley..we ran into the basketball team. Go Ducks!!

Kaley riding the Merry go Round

Look how long Kaley's hair is.

Sketching the Tulips

I took Ainsley and Kaley into the City for the Tulip Festival on Feb. 14th. They decided to camp out at the same spot as last year.

Pier 39- Tulip Festival

The girls on the Sea Lions

Tulip Art Sculpture with glass disks which picked up all the colors of the tulips.

More buildings

Kaley loves this building and gets very excited when she sees it. She says "the stair building, mommy". It is pretty cool- especially when lit up at Christmas.

Another shot of the Swamp people

At the East end of the Embarcadero is this bow and arrow sculpture with the Bay Bridge in the background. The girls thought this was put up just for Valentine's Day.

View from Michael's window on 4th street (16th floor). Rough!!

Sculptures and Buildings in The City

February 14th kicks off the annual Tulip Festival at Pier 39. We love this sculpture, which greets drivers traveling down The Embarcadero.

View from the top of the parking garage where we parked for the Tulip Festival...Transamerica Bldg, Coit Tower, Bell towers of St. Peter and Paul Cathedral,

Mrs. Hanebury's class is studying quilts for the Letter "Q". She asked me if I could do something with some quilt fabric she had. One of the prints is the Bow Tie. Ainsley helped to pick out a backing print. We put batting in between the two, ran a binding with the backing and tied the squares for detail.
