Christmas Brunch as the Yungs

This morning we went down to Jeff, Joyce and Madeline's home for a wonderfully fun Holiday brunch. The food and the company was awesome. It was a very fun event!

Dinner at Cha, Cha, Cha's

This past Wednesday night, Dave and I met Matt, Abby, Evan, Megan and Ijeoma for dinner at Cha, Cha, Cha's in the Mission. We had a great dinner of tapas and conversation. Evan was a delight as usual and we enjoyed an early Christmas celebration.

Evan was all smiles until the end of the evening when the poor little guy was so tired it was all he could do to stay upright.

Home owners!

So as of December 11th, Dave and I are officially home owners. We closed on the 11th and got the keys on the 12th. We will be heading over to see our new home completely empty tomorrow and will be officially moving next Saturday, the 20th. We are very excited to take this big step and establish our family home where we plan to stay for many, many, many years!!
