San Francisco, August 2009

Last summer, Mom and I took a Medical Spanish course in San Francisco. Our afternoons were mostly free time (for "studying"), so we got to explore the city a little bit. One of my favorite things that we did was renting bikes and riding across the Golden Gate Bridge! Here we are with our bikes overlooking the beach, and the second picture is a view of the coastline from the bridge.

Savannah - May 2008

Next up: Savannah trip from last May. We all (Harrington side, that is) had to meet Meghan before Eli proposed, so we met up in Savannah and had a great day at the Roundhouse Railroad Museum and then walking around downtown Savannah.


Esther loved playing in, on, and around the trains:

Let's see, where was I........ oh yeah, still way behind on updating my blog! Oh well. I just ordered these pictures for my scrapbook this week, which reminded me to at least try to get the blog up-to-date. These are from our first trip to visit Mom and Dad in Colorado Springs last December:

November '08 - At the Park with Esther

A few days before Thanksgiving last year, I went up to Columbia, Missouri to visit my brother and sister-in-law (Josh and Amanda), and their kids (Esther, age 22 months then, and 6-week-old Isaac, who I met for the first time). Mom and Dad and Eli were all there too; Matt couldn't make it, unfortunately. It was pretty cold but we took Esther out to the park late one afternoon. Here are a few pictures of the fun on the playground!
