The 2nd weekend in January My Mom, My Grandma, and I made a trip to Oakland to Samuel Merritt college where I interviewed for admission to their Masters of occupational therapy program. Which I got into, hurray! After the interview we headed to San Francisco to visit the places where my Granddad (my Mom's Dad) and his family lived. This is a picture of me and my Grandma infront of the house where my Granddad grew up.
Here I am infront of the house that My great great grandfather Tharaldsen built. While I was taking pictures of it from across the street I had a lady ask me "what was so exciting about that house?". I replied, "my great grandfather built it" she seemed curious and asked "was he a famous architect?" I said "nope it's just special to me" and it was special to me. It was really special trip and exciting to be about to see the places where my ancestors lived.

Tara that is so cool to see a house that your great grandpa built. I couldn't say that. So I think it is pretty cool. Will you be moving to S.F. now that you have been accepted?
Not sure but I'm pretty sure I'll be living in Oakland somewhere...SF is about a half hour away driving.
