San Diego: Part 2

Today is San Diego: Part 2!   We took the ferry across to Coronado Island which made for an amazing day!

View of the USS Midway from the ferry!

My amazing fiancé : )!

Such a beautiful ride on the ferry! 

Arriving at Coronado Island

Loved this place!

Historic Hotel del Coronado

After an awesome day on the island we headed to Little Italy for dinner! We decided on Mimmo's and it was AMAZING! We ate there twice on our trip and both still crave it!

San Diego: Part 1

I recently had a work conference in San Diego, so Jared and I extended the trip a few days to check out the city! We had so much fun that I'm going to have to post about the trip in multiple blogs! 

Due to weather we missed our connecting flight in Denver and had to spend the night in the airport. Cold, tired, not fun. 

We have arrived! First stop: USS Midway

Walking around this aircraft carrier was amazing!!

I look scared behind bars. 

Jared laughs!

Checking out the airplanes! 

It was so cool getting to see all the ships!

Tired but having so much fun!

Hard to tell in this picture but this was a walkout off the ship, nothing under it but ocean! 

The View. Just gorgeous like this every day there!

What a fun day!

Stay tuned for part 2!

Our First Home!

Exciting news! The future Peacock's are officially home owners : ) after lots of searching we found the perfect house for us! We are so thankful for our new home and for our wonderful realtor Matt Schell (visit his website here). We could not have asked for anyone better to take us through this process and highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home!

We closed on our house two days before we left for San Diego. It was hard to leave right after such a big day but we had no idea how thankful we would be for that vacation! We've been working on the house about a month and are finally seeing it come together. We have painted every ceiling, wall, door and piece of trim. I am over painting but am in LOVE with our home and can't wait to move in after the wedding! We've been doing lots of work and I will be sharing pictures of some of our projects soon! We are so blessed to have a wonderful home to share together and to start this new chapter of our lives in. I have turned into even more of a complete emotional sap than usual the closer we get to the wedding and the excitement of sharing a home with this amazing man has me overwhelmed with happiness! 

St. Louis

We decided to take a pre-wedding family vacation to St. Louis a few weekends ago to spend some time together. We had a great trip! 

St. Louis bound!

We're here!

Walking around downtown the first night. 

Hanging out at the zoo!

Dylan was trying to make animal friends : )

Such a beautiful place!

Twins. They even stand the same!

Riding the zoo train!

Right before we left the zoo! I can't even imagine how much we walked that day. 

Dinner at Charlie Gitto's

Hanging out in Ballpark Village! There was a game going on so it was really fun to walk around and see what it's like on a game night.
