I've always been grateful for having such an awesome family. This page is dedicated to everybody I'm lucky enough to be related to.

About my family:

My family consists of my Mom: Caryl, my Dad: Phil, my sister: Erin, and me. I think my family's favorite thing to do together is backpacking. We love the outdoors. Our favorite places to backpack are Point Reyes in Marin County as well as on the outskirts of Yosemite.

We also like going out to eat. Our favorite places to eat are the Italian restaurants: "Macaroni Grill", and "Cucina Cucina". But we're always on the lookout for good food we've never tried.

My Mother's Side:

The Brewbakers have always been notorious for their funny wacked-out behavior. This is what makes my dad's family so fun to hang around with.

My mom's side (the Meyer side) is the very heart-warming type. Every Christmas Break, there's a get-together at my grandparent's house and all of the families break out into holiday fun. We love to talk, play games and enjoy family (all while eating my grandma's famous cookies).
