Friends Are The Family You Choose

It has been over a month since my last post...wow, time really does fly by. I'm so excited for this one because it's about my recent trip to San Francisco. Ryan and I went there for our friend Ann's big 30th birthday celebration and for a long awaited visit to see Shirley May, who moved there last September.  It was just such a wonderful time.

While I was in San Francisco roaming around with my dearest friends and husband, all I could think was, I am SO lucky. How wonderful is it that I have these girls pictured below in my life and that we can just hang out and have a blast no matter what. Top that off with my husband being there, lots of great food, shopping, and laughter, and it truly was an amazing time. I am only close to a few family members, so I consider my close friends my family. Friends are the family you choose, and I feel like I've chosen well. I'm lucky enough to be surrounded by the best girls out there.

Surprisingly, I didn't take that many pictures during the trip :( Of course I wish I had more, but I must've been having too much fun to remember to take pictures. Sometimes it's just better to just be in the moment anyways :)

Here's my photo diary of the trip, enjoy!

I heart these girls so much

Oh, and I heart this man too...can't get enough of him

What can be better than shopping with girls? Shopping here with girls.
How beautiful is this?
I just wish I remembered what it was called. I think it started with a "W"?

dirty bibs...it was a messy, but delicious meal





everyone signed the wall...can't wait to go back!
I thought it was also cute that the word "family" is right next to this.
 
Breakfast/lunch, brunch, whatever you want to call it, at Karilagan.
