I love the Pacific Ocean!

I always like to find time to make layout, thinking one layout a month is not much to ask for, but days turn into weeks, weeks turn into month, I am close to missing the deadline for January challenge at Challenge YOUrself!

I usually don't take picture of myself, but since I had a busy December traveling, I do have a lot of pictures of ME to scrap.....

December 16, we went to the Pacific Coast Highway.....

such a lovely day!

I printed the first picture in black and white....

and then the rest of the photos in colors....

I had fun making this, why don't you join in the fun at

Project Life 2015 ~ December 8

Project Life 2015

December 8
My mom, sister, Jesse and I are going to San Francisco today.

Hotels are hard to get these days in San Francisco because lots of tech company set up in the city, I heard that the staff have to live in the car in the office parking lots because it is very hard to get a place to stay, when there is an apartment open up on craig list, within the first two hours, you'll see line of people waiting outside. I found mine on Airbnb, it is a time share apartment but it runs like a hotel, location is great, just a block from Union Square, very convenience!

the room is quite nice, it has a king size bed and the sofa can be open to a queen size bed that sleeps two, perfect for four of us.

After we checked in, we walked around Union Square to look for something to eat

and when we are not looking, these little birdies actually took a bite of my bread....

Union Square looks very festive this time of the year....

we bought a three day Muni pass at Walgreen for $27 and took the cable car to Fisherman's Wharf...

I have been to San Francisco so many times and know the city pretty well, so I have to bring mom and sis to see the cable car turnaround....

after Fisherman's Wharf, we went back to Union Square for Japanese food at Sakana.

My sister and I went shopping after dinner, but mom is tired, so she went back to the hotel to rest, Jesse is happy that he gets to play with his phone in the room as well.

Still working on the December spread, I hope to get it done so I can start my Project Life 2016!
Before I go, I gotta show this photo taken right before we leave for San Francisco that morning, Papi always shows his poor puppy dog face when he knew that I am leaving without him.
