One Infinite Loop (#23) and the SF Symphony (#21)

Knocking things off the list!

Last week, Sean, his siblings, and I went to dinner in Cupertino about as close to the Apple Campus as one could be. Sarah snapped this photo as proof that I made it to my mecca (yeah, ok, I am a bit of a fangirl).


I plan to return soon as they have a company store! I am going to get decked out in Apple wear. Just wait.

Then this weekend, Sean took me to the SF symphony where they played a few string serenades. It was a very lovely evening and concert. As we walked to Davies Hall, I thought about how wonderful it is to be in California, where I've always wanted to be, and have it be everything I could wish for.

Photo to come. For now, this will have to suffice.


Good times in the Golden State!

Home

I'm counting down the days to...

the beautiful, majestic rockies
late nights spent on the deck with ben
snoozing in my bedroom
and on the living room floor
breakfasts with mom and ali
ali's coffee
bagley cartoons in print
and the sl trib letters to the editor
catching up with friends
misty's baby shower
cool summer nights
cafe rio's steak tostada
conversation in the cozy zone
sunday afternoons at my grandma's

but mostly meeting daphne.

The Past Few Days

A quick blog update before I head to the city with Sean for a lovely night at the San Francisco Symphony. I'm so excited to share one of my favorite things with him! The symphony is one of the things I most miss about Salt Lake.

Anyway, the past few days have involved lots of fun and tiny amounts of work. The first items of business pale in comparison to the last. But I will share anyway...

My summer shoe splurge! Proud owner of Top-Siders.

Mattress delivery and bed assembling yesterday! Big thanks to Sean for helping me out and extra big thanks to my mom for buying me what I'm calling my doctoral bed! Here's to sweet prelim exam dreams on a pillow top mattress sent straight from heaven. 
And...

Daphne
Daphne was born yesterday morning! Isn't she the absolute most beautiful thing you've ever seen? What a bundle of happiness and love. I am so happy for Emily and Taylor, and so happy for me! I spent a lot of time thinking about how amazing life is, especially new life, and how fortunate I am to get to experience (even though long distance) the welcoming of a new person to the world. And not just any new person! She's one of us! Family. Anyway, welcome Daphne! I cannot wait to watch you grow. I love you!
