Japanese Tea Garden Trip!

 This weekend we went out to the Japanese tea garden, next to the botanical gardens! The bridges were very cool, but I was most interested in the fish.

New Years Party!

 This weekend was the first day of 2023! I held a New Years Day celebration at my house, where we watched Matilda and played some card games.

We also had apple cider in champagne glasses and had a toast!

Christmas!

 This weekend I went up to Stephanie and Christian's house to have an afternoon Christmas dinner! We had a lovely time eating, opening presents, and pulling our Christmas crackers.

Nickels Visit!

 This weekend, Nonie and Doc came to visit us! We had a great time working our way through a jigsaw puzzle together, listening to holiday music, and exchanging gifts. We haven't opened them yet though!

Holiday Play!

 This weekend we went out to see As You Like It at the SF Playhouse! But we got to the theater an hour early, so we got to wander around Union Square. We even tried out the new subway route that goes to Chinatown! There was some really cool art in the station, like this wall (it could totally be a puzzle).

Hair Dyeing Time!

 This week, I decided to dye my hair with Alessandra! We had fun trying to figure out how to use the hair dye, and watched a show while we waited for it to dry. We both dyed our hair green, but Alessandra's doesn't show up quite as much since it's only on the underneath layer.

Friendsgiving!

 This weekend I went to my friend Birdie's house for a Friendsgiving celebration! We got there early, and helped Birdie make some snacks in the kitchen.

Once the whole group got there, we had lunch, played some video games, and then went out on a walk. It was quite a hike to get there, but the view was so cool!

San Diego Trip!

 This weekend we drove down to San Diego to see the Nickels! I'm glad that we got a little bit of Thanksgiving time with them. Plus, Nonie and Doc took me and Emma to see Hamilton!

We also went to the new section of the San Diego Zoo and met this lovely frog.

Legion of Honor!

 This weekend I went to the Guo Pei couture exhibition at the Legion of Honor museum with Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Christian! The designer's dresses were super cool, and it was even more fun to get to see them together. We didn't take many photos of the actual artworks, but here we are outside!

Late Halloween!

 This week I had a celebration with Ale after Halloween! We sat on my roof for a while, and then built a Halloween-themed gingerbread house together while listening to some music. We had a lot of fun!

Here's the Halloween house we built.

Great Hauntway!

 This weekend I volunteered at the Great Highway's Halloween celebration, the Great Hauntway! I worked at the bounce house for a few hours, then got to walk around. I dressed up as a witch. I made it all the way to Judah street, at the very north end of the celebration!

Showtime!

 This weekend was our show! I'm super proud of all of us for all the work we put in. I got to work front of house for all four shows, and they even made me head usher! I got to greet everyone, scan tickets, and dress up for every show.

Here's the cast on closing night, too!

Tech Weekend!

 This weekend I went in to the theater to watch some rehearsals! We're close to opening night, so we're blocking some specific scenes. This one involves a prop that I made, which is the centerpiece of last scene in the show! I'm super proud of my contributions.

Lobby!

 This week I went to Hawaii to run my first ever Lobby game! I had a great time with our crew. Everyone was super nice and the game went well!

Afterwards, we also got to go to Lahaina and get shave ice, and see the super cool banyan tree!

Brunch with Gramalicia!

 This weekend Gramalicia is in town, so we went out for brunch at one of our favorite places nearby, a restaurant called Lucho's! They have some really good pancakes. Though the line was pretty long, it was completely worth it.
