Cubs vs Giants

We drove up north on Wednesday to spend a long weekend in Mill Valley, and see the Cubs play the Giants at At&t park. It was a gorgeous day (high of 69 and sunny) when it was supposed to be about 55 and foggy.The Cubs lost 8-7 in the bottom of the 9. Bummer.

Pete's Tavern before the game

We sat 7th row behind home plate. Fabulous.

Geoff's friend had his birthday the same day so he was at the game too and we caught him at the end for a quick hello.

Last Day

Before everyone left tonight we spent a beautiful day at the pool. Great vacation. More pictures to come on Facebook.

And last night we went to dinner in Old Town. Group photo!

Soak City

Yesterday the cousins and Nick went to Knotts Berry Farm Soak City right north of the Mexico-California boarder. Besides all the bees and it not being very warm it was fun. I personally don't seek out thrill rides of any kind, and the 2 below really terrified me.

The first slide, "La Jolla Falls" had 4 options. I thought I took the easiest route down. It was the worst. I caught air at least 2 times, my bathing suit was up my butt, far, and my boobs were in my mouth. I will never do that again.

The next ride, "Pacific Spin" shoots a 4 person raft down a HUGE drop and then flings you up the sides of the big barrel thing. I screamed LOUD. A 10 year old girl came with me, Nikki and Angie. She wasn't scared.

La Jolla Falls - the one on the right was my stupid choice

Pacific Spin. Oy.

Reich's Invade San Diego

My uncle, aunt and cousins came to San Diego from Michigan on Saturday. They're joined by my mom, brother and grandma. We took them to walk around La Jolla and Pacific Beach this weekend.

Lebron James Does San Diego

Last night Nick hooked it up with VIP seats for us (and my visiting extended family) to see Bron Bron play in a scrimmage game with some other NBA guys. He's big, he's buff and dark. If I could pull off having a "J" on the back of one arm and a "C" on the back of the other you bet I would.

We were sitting really close and when he was looking our way I did a little head nod saying "whattup" and he gave me one back. We're bffs.
