Wake Up San Francisco!

(Yes, I know that you all remember that famous show) This weekend Adam and I had the chance to go to San Francisco for his mission president's homecoming. He actually lives in Oakland but we stayed in San Fransisco with Adam's cousin and her husband so we were lucky enough to see both sides of the bay area. Saturday we toured around the city and the highlight of my tour was going to the Full House house!! It looks a little different (no red door) and it's so much smaller than what they make it look like on TV!! We walked around Pier 39 and of course we had to make a stop at Ghiradelli's Chocolate. We then went to dinner at President and Sister Gingery's house where I was finally able to meet them. It was so much fun being able to meet other missionaries that Adam served with. I honestly felt like I was at EFY the whole weekend. The spirit was so strong being around all the missionaries and my testimony of missionary work is stronger than it has ever been. I wish every weekend could be like that! The rest of the weekend was filled with lots of crazy mission stories (you can only imagine the things that go on in Jamaica), never-ending fun activities, homecomings, firesides, and lots and lots of food. The only thing missing was sleep. Needless to say, I slept like a rock last night. Thanks Kristen and Aaron for letting us stay with you and being such wonderful hosts! We miss you already!!
