Our wonderful vacation continued when we got to Half Moon Bay Thursday afternoon. Upon check-in at the Ritz, we were given a glass of wine and a goodie basket. The views from our room were amazing!!
Matt enjoyed my glass too ;)
After settling in, we went downstairs to the reception for our team. It was great to see all the familiar faces and we had a wonderful time eating, drinking, and then roasting smores by the outside fire pit. It was a BIG celebration in honor of a great 2011!!
Our first night at the Ritz was wonderful!! Friday morning, our team headed to the Redwood Forests for a hike/tour. Afterwards, we enjoyed lunch in Pescadero at Duarte's.
After our hike and lunch, Matt and I headed back to the hotel to walk around the grounds. We got a drink and sat outside on the patio, enjoyed the sunshine, and took lots of pictures.
After a nap, we headed down to meet everyone for dinner at Miramar Beach.
Saturday, we slept in and had a VERY LAZY DAY! We started with breakfast in the formal dining room of the Ritz with a great view of the ocean. Afterwards, Matt went to the gym while I headed down to the spa for a relaxing prenatal massage. We decided to go down to the pool and get some exercise that afternoon and then came back to the room for a nap. Saturday night we had reservations at Pasta Moon downtown. It was by far the BEST meal we had while in Half Moon Bay. After dinner we went back to the Ritz and watched the sunset over the ocean.
They had a man play the bagpipes as the sun set at the hotel
Enjoying my Honey Nut Cheerios for breakfast :)

I didn't get any pictures of us at dinner, but Matt loved this HUGE great dane that was outside and I believe it's safe to say he would like one now :)
It was the perfect end to our week-long vacation!! We flew home on Sunday and Matt and I both took off work Monday to recoup and get ready for the week. We had the best time and are so thankful for such a fantastic vacation!!!!
