With the help of Jenny's husband, Phil, we planned an AMAZING surprise birthday weekend for her in the beautiful city of San Francisco!!!  Good buddies, wine, and shopping made us love this place, but I have to add that this city is a photographer's absolute dream!  You get a little bit of everything in a short drive whether you are looking for an urban setting or a lush green field :)  I believe it's a sin to go to this city and not photograph the bridge, so I'll start this blog post with a picture of the city - Enjoy a small preview of San Fran!!!

And let me introduce you to the ladies who joined me in this beautiful city to celebrate Jenny's Birthday!!!  Erin is on the left while the birthday girl, Jenny, is laughing nervously as I have them lay down on the hotel floor!!!  You'll meet Allison later in some photos since she joined us the second day :)  

I was like a kid in a candy store just with our awesome hotel lobby and wanted to photograph EVERYTHING I saw!!!  I think the girls got a little tired of me making them take photos every 5 seconds as we walked to lunch and around the city :)

Just me :) 

Walking through the Sequoia Forest made us all feel like little ants!  We had to overcome this ant feeling by making yoga tree poses ;)

Now, we are off to start the wine tour goodness ;)  Let the fun times begin...  :)

Beggers cannot be choosers when it comes to wine testing, but wow do they have a number of dry wines out in Sonoma Valley!  I prefer sweeter wines and a good port any day, but as you can see we had a fabulous time and all have a new appreciate for making wine!!!  Now onto seeing the Golden Gate Bridge!!!

Our last day, we enjoyed exploring Fisherman's Wharf!  I think I could get use to the nautical life style while enjoying loafs of San Francisco's famous sour dough bread every morning :)  
WOW, this is amazing - I need this bike!!!  This invention should be on the TV show, " Shark Tank ;) "

Any last but not least, I had to play around just a little more at the hotel with some portraits of myself and Erin :)
