AK AND I WITH BIG GRINS AFTER MAKING THE FINAL PICK! WE PROCEEDED TO THE HOTEL BAR AND DRANK HEAVILY, MAKING MANY LATE NIGHT CALLS BACK EAST, WAKING LOTS OF PEOPLE UP :) A VERY GOOD DAY!
(TIFFANY'S, SAN FRAN)
THIS IS OUR GOOD BUDDY JULIE AND HER AND HER HUSBAND GABRIEL'S ADORABLE, SMART, INQUISATIVE AND SUPER CREATIVE DAUGHTER HANNAH, 3 YRS OLD. WE WATCHED HANNAH GROW UP FROM DAY ONE, AND SHE HAS TURNED OUT AMAZING-100% FULL THROTTLE ALL THE TIME! SHE HAD LAID OUT ALL THE PRESENTS THAT AK AND I HAD GIVEN HER OVER THE YEARS (MOSTLY HELLO KITTY MERCH) AND WE TALKED ABOUT EACH ONE. SHE GAVE US A TOUR OF THEIR BACKYARD GARDEN, COMPLETE WITH SCARECROW, WHO WE COULDN'T TOUCH, BUT WE COULD SHAKE HANDS WITH HIM. SHE EATS SUSHI. AND SHE'S AS TALL AS A 5 YR OLD-HER PAPA IS LIKE 6'5". NEEDLESS TO SAY, WE HAD A BALL PLAYING WITH HER AND HAVING HER TELL US HOW SHE REMEMBERS COMING TO OUR APARTMENT AND HAVING LOTS OF HUGS...YOU COULD SAY THAT AK AND MY HEARTS MELTED ON THAT ONE!

AK AND I, JUST AFTER PICKING UP THE RING. THIS STATUE IS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM TIFF's, AND SEEMED APPROPRIATE! IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE CITY, AND ONE WE WON'T FORGET :)
(UNION SQUARE, SAN FRAN)
A CACTUS OUTSIDE AK's MOM's BEDROOM PORCH THAT GREW INTO A HEART SHAPE. WE ALSO THOUGHT IT APPROPRIATE TO TAKE THIS PICTURE.
