The reason our dear friends, the Prellers, relocated to the Bay Area was because Theo was offered an amazing job with Apple. He's overseeing all the finances for the new campus Apple is building. Pretty cool, huh? What's even cooler is that he invited Mike and I to have lunch with him at the existing campus - address 1 Infinite Loop. While Mike and I enjoyed lunch with him there, brave Ana Maria watched all the kids as they played at the girls' school playground.

But that wasn't even the big news of that day. The big event was Elise's birthday! When Ana Maria told us we would be there for Elise's birthday, I was really excited. How fun to be a part of her celebration. That evening we had a little party for her, including a birthday cake made by moi. Not exactly the fancy ones my mom is capable of but Elise liked it and it sure was tasty.
Her BIG present for her birthday was a new bike! After unveiling the gift, we all watched as she got to give it a test spin. Cade LOVED trying to follow her around the long driveway.

The next morning we continued the birthday celebration at Pump It Up. It's an indoor blow up\bouncy house place. The kids (and adults) LOVED it!

Dylan and Elise had fun racing through the obstacle course we pretty much camped out on. Cade needed a lot of help at first. By the end of the house, he was scaling everything pretty much solo....just a spot from the parents now and then. He seriously impressed me.
After finishing our bouncy fun, it was time to say goodbye to our friends, thank them for their incredible hospitality and fun times together and head into Oakland. The Saratoga portion of our trip had come to an end.
