The Garguile family visits

Tim, Mary, and Gina were down over mother's day, which also happens to be Gina's Birthday! We were so happy that Tim decided to make the trip and had a great time celebrating with everyone.
On Saturday we got up and went to San Francisco to check out the bay. The weather was great and made for some beautiful shots of the water and Golden Gate Bridge
We strolled around enjoying the atmosphere, check out the crab....if only they were easier to eat!
ate at a nice restaurant, Tarantino's, and enjoyed the view of the boats.
Before we headed home we did Lombard St., the crookedest street, and enjoyed the views of the gorgeous Victorian homes
On Sunday we celebrated mother's day with a big breakfast at home cooked by Dominic, then lounged around most of the playing XBox360 and shopping. We celebrated Gina's 13th Birthday with an early dinner of lemon chicken, again made by Dominic!
After dinner we sang happy birthday and Gina was FINALLY able to open those gifts! The guys had been giving her a hard time about 'peaking at them' all day...give her a break gentleman, it's her BIRTHDAY!!!! the big 1-3...she's finally a teenager!!!!!
and here is her blowing out the candles!!!! (please ignore the fact that it's sideways this is my first video post and I'm still learning)

We miss everyone already and can't wait until they come again. Hopefully Gina will even make a solo trip this summer!!!
