Many times it's not focus but movement. Try using a tripod. There are even single-leg ones you can get(would those be unopods? monopods?). I many times use my camera with one hand on top, the other on the bottom-limits movement somewhat (many hold the camera with hands on its sides, but side to side movement happens easier, it seems); also, only depress the shutter button enough to engage-too often people put too much pressure on it and that also causes the camera to shift.
If your camera has auto-focus, depressing the shutterbutton halfway usually engages it-try holding it there for an extra second to give the camera time to adjust.
I wear glasses as well. I don't think that's really an issue. Practice aperature settings-the smaller the number, the larger the lens opening. You can google tutorials on aperature usage-it will have an effect on the crispness of your shot. Also, if your camera has shutter speed settings, experiment with those as well. The higher the number, the faster the shutter; too slow and you risk more chance of movement and blurring. Too high and you end up with a dark picture.
Had to go back and look at your shots. First one got the colors really well, the second one seems a tad washed out, but they're good starts.
