Hello everyone,

Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift of all. We couldn't be happier about sharing this special day with our absolute nearest and dearest. We are so looking forward to our intimate ceremony and dinner with you all. We can't thank you enough for joining us.

We're not exactly a couple of young newlyweds. We have everything and more that a couple needs. Heck, we have an almost four year old son! If there's one thing we can't get enough of, it's travel. We've decided to further celebrate this new chapter in our lives with a honeymoon to remember. We've chosen a honeymoon registry because of the lifetime of memories it will provide.

We'll appreciate and remember these gifts for years to come. We promise to take lots of pictures and to entertain you with stories of inevitable mishaps and hilarity!

Thank you again and we cannot wait to see you at the wedding (or sooner!),

Tanya and Peter

We're going to San Francisco to Monterey!

After much deliberation, we have decided to visit San Francisco and Monterey on our family honeymoon! Yes, wee Harley will be joining us so we had to balance our adventurous leanings (somewhat) with the reality of traveling with a little explorer. However, we are nothing less than thrilled with our choice. San Francisco seems to have it all. "Natural beauty and a license to be outlandish" according to my Lonely Planet guide- Uh oh, what is Pete going to wear! It has culture and history galore, gorgeous parks and gardens, world class museums, quirky shops and most importantly great food! You'll notice that we plan to experience the Bay Area largely through our taste buds. Did I mention that they have a food truck that serves every variety of creme brulee you can imagine and an ice cream stand that sells peanut butter curry flavored ice cream? After four days in San Francisco we're going to hit the road and drive the coast down to Monterey and from there we'll take in the local history, the great redwood forests and of course, the sea. We are super excited to get away as a family and we thank you so much for considering a gift towards the experience. See you soon!

Car rental - After four days in San Francisco we'll take to the road and explore the coast! We'll make our way to Monterey and explore from there. This is the car we'd rent in Pete's dreams! I'm thinking more of a 1980 Pinto.

Brunch at First Awakenings - This is the reportedly the best breakfast in town! Everything is made from scratch including the pancakes and the french toast. I will not be ordering from the healthy department!

19th century steam train ride into the redwoods - I could not believe my luck when I discovered this! Harley has turned us both into railroad fans. This should be a blast!
