Family first!
There is nothing like seeing your family after moving or being away for awhile. We've been so lucky this passed weekend and week to not only have JoAnne come out to California to help us take care of the condo and our babies at the last minute, but also see Jess while in Boston.
Last Saturday, JoAnne flew in to San Fran. We took her to Fort Funston on a hike! It is so nice to have her with us. The next day we to Pier 39 at Fisherman's Wharf, Ghiradelli factory, and the Muir Woods preserve. We also enjoyed the loaf of sourdough bread we bought at Boudin's. Mmmm Turkey Melts!! They were amazing. Obviously I (Connie) had no part in making them - it was all Justin & JoAnne!
On Tuesday, we flew to Boston for our company's global kickoff. I've never seen so much snow! Pictures to come. We were super lucky to see Jess. She took us to dinner and bowling. We couldn't wait to try candlestick bowling, but were unable to due to the lines! It must really be popular!! It was still well worth the little time we had were able to spend with her.
From there we went back to our hotel and enjoyed the much needed sleep we would need for the remainder of the week. Finally it is Friday, and we can't wait to get home!! Hopefully we will make it out tonight with the snow that came in this morning!!
Also I just learned that my dad (ALFERDO) has been very sick and was in the hospital this week. Please keep him, my mom and my family in your prayers!! He is an amazing man and I know he will get better. Feel better Alfredo, Justin and I love and miss you dearly.
Happy travels and see you in sunny California!!
Love
Justin & Connie

New Year, New Beginnings
My how time has flown by...We can't believe its 2011 already. Justin and I have been extremely busy since the wedding, so we apologize for not updating our blog in so long. We hope to continue to share our new adventures here and hope you all will stay tuned!!
First, many many thanks to those all who attended the wedding! What a beautiful day and way to celebrate. And many thanks for the wonderful well wishes, cards, gifts and gift cards we received. We will be resending some of our thank you cards, I just found out over half of them were stolen from the mail drop box we used.
Since the wedding, Justin and I have traveled to Jamaica for our honeymoon. We enjoyed 10 days of lovely weather and time together. We visited Rick's cafe to see the cliff divers and sunset - we didn't end up seeing the sunset because of the weather, but we did see a group of dolphins playing!! We also trekked our way up Dunn's River falls in a human chain, my the water was cold but well worth the hike to the top. During our last few days there, we saw rain fall every which way it could, trees blown to the side, plants end up on one side of the resort and a roof blow away!! Crazy tropical depressions!! Luckily we made it home before the weather became worse.
In October, I had a chance to travel to California to spend a few days in our California office. It's so beautiful, I fell in love. Shortly after in November, I learned my manager was retiring. She told me I should apply for her position. I did and I got the job!!
Now Justin and I are acclimating to California and both of our new positions. That's right we both got promotions!! Go us! :)
While we miss our families, friends and Texas more than anyone could imagine, we seem to be adjusting to Cali pretty well. On Christmas we went hiking at the Muir Woods National Preserve and on New Years we took Bella to Fort Funston. Fort Funston is a place near the beach were hundreds of dogs run and play off leash!! Bella had the time of her life!! It was so wonderful to see her having so much fun. We couldn't help but enjoy ourselves as well, who wouldn't with beautiful scenery and of course great company :)
New pictures and video coming soon!!
Til next time...signing off from San Fran!! Happy New Years to all!
