Happy Happy Birthday Month to my beloved Husband! I can't praise him enough for being the best husband
for me, an exceptional father to our two boys and an all-around fun and wonderful human being. We celebrated his day (and weekend) in Solano County and the Bay Area. He deserves all good things and I pray and wish him a long, happy & healthy life!
 |
| Oh yes, we did sneak in a Lego Store visit in the City of Pleasanton. |
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom
This was our main stop on our NorCal vacation. Here are just some of the silliness, adventures, and unique experiences at this fabulous amusement park.
 |
| Yes, the Husby is sharing his drink. He's generous too. ☺ |
 |
| Fist-bumping The Dark Knight. The best legends always have a mentor. ☺ |
 |
| Of course the boys had to get in on it. |
|
 |
| Apparently, the birthday boy was in a generous mood, sharing his drink with a shark. ☺ |
 |
| We found a train--not exactly Hogwarts Express, but it's fun. ☺ |
 |
| Being one with the Walrus. |
Additional Discovery Kingdom pictures...
 |
| Monsoon Falls. The guys got a good soaking! |
 |
| Skyscreamer. Obviously, the guys are NOT afraid of heights. |
The all wooden roller coaster Roar closed this weekend. Farewell to Roar!
 |
| Some good things must come to an end. |
 |
| Goodbye Roar! Thanks for the memories! (Awww, sad-faced birthday boy.) |
Thank you Six Flags Discovery Kingdom for a memorable experience.
Towards the evening we headed to San Francisco.
 |
| A little traffic on The Golden Gate Bridge which is actually a good thing. Take a moment and enjoy this beautiful landmark! |
 |
| My film-loving boys love this Bridge seeing it many many movies. |
|
 |
| San Francisco is famous for those hills. I feel my thighs burning just looking at it (while sitting in a car). ☺ |
Ghirardelli Square
I'm about to make a bold statement so here it goes. The Ghirardelli chocolate brownie from Ghirardelli Square is the BEST brownie ever--don't just devour it, savor it. Okay, now that I got that out of the way, we couldn't be in the NorCal area and NOT stop here for our dessert fix--and what better excuse than as part of the birthday celebration. (Truthfully, we would've gone anyway, but it sounds so noble, doesn't it?)
 |
| Chocolate Brownie Sundae almost as big as my 9-year-old's head. |
 |
| Gotta give the man credit for having restraint while we take this picture. |
Hope The Husby feels special
every day. Again, wishing him a happy happy birthday!! We love you!!
