Our Family Trip to Yosemite National Park


I had been wanting to come to Yosemite for many years and I was hoping it would be with our parents so they could also experience this for the first time. Fortunately, it all worked out and we were able to plan this trip for Emma’s first birthday week in October 2022 along with my parents and in-laws.
We rented a large van through Turo so we could all fit comfortably in one vehicle and my husband and I took turns driving six-plus hours overnight so we could take advantage of a full first day enjoying the resort we stayed at. For reference, we left San Diego on Wednesday night and arrived at Bass Lake/Yosemite on Thursday around 9 a.m.

Celebrating our Baby's First Year of Life



So, I have not written much on this blog for a few years but I thought I should start at it again since A LOT has happened since my last post!

Not only have a couple of years gone by of wedding anniversary celebrations and more traveling, but we also had a BABY! Yes, a beautiful baby girl named Emma and she is already ONE YEAR OLD. So I wanted this latest post to honor her and basically share how we decided to celebrate her first year of life with us.

Wedding Anniversary: Celebrating 3 Years

Wedding Anniversary: Celebrating 3 Years - romantic dinner date

We wanted to celebrate our three year wedding anniversary somewhere special.
I recently saw that there was a new restaurant Emma Baja French, which recently opened at the famous Grand Hotel Tijuana and it turns out it is the same location where I had my bridal shower three years ago!
