Updating



So I've lagged a lot and haven't written in awhile. Let's see, since my last post we've been to California Adventure which was a blast, Andrea and Oliver are so much fun!


Our friend Michelle had a birthday and we had a great time out at Aculpocos. My brother who is part of his high schools track team had an invitational so I got to play paparrazi for a few hours. Easter was chaos going back and forth between the different families, and it was Corey's dad's birthday. Last night I get to spend time with my family, my grandma and Sister Pat as well. We had dinner together then went to the driving range, it was really fun to do together.
I've reconnected with some old friends and I'm ecstatic about it. We lost touch back in high school after sophmore year and we've met a couple times for lunch, it's really fun and honestly hope they will be life long friends.

Weekend Fun




Friday night was Girls Night Out with work, we went to Mastros for drinks and appetizers, it was amazing. Then we headed to the Gourmet Detectives Dinner Theatre, that was definitely different, a bit hard to follow but the food was decent and we had some good laughs. We almost got kicked out about half-way through because some ladies had a little to much to drink, the limo ride was uneventful because the radio didn't work and we were only in it for about 30 minutes total. It was nice to get dressed up for a night on the town and the company was great.


Saturday I got a lot of laundry done and hung out at my parents for awhile. Corey got home not to long after I did and we went to his Anaheim yard to pick up his new scooter. I drove it about 50 feet not going over 2 mph, it was scary driving it on loose asphalt so I can't wait to try it again on the street. I'm hoping it will turn into my scooter and I can paint it pink. Corey says if I really do like it we can get me my own eventually. he's so excited about it he already went to the DMV this morning got it registered and took his motorcycle permit test...of course he passed.

Sunday we went to Weinersnitzel for lunch, it was such a beautiful day out that we ate outside rather then taking it home. While sitting there we saw a sign for an open house so we walked down the street and checked out these amazing little places. If we had an extra $25,000.00 in the bank we would be homeowners right now. The places were just perfect for what we are looking for for our first home. Granted I would like more space but everything was so great about these places we fell in love. To bad the market is so horrible right now...everyone says wait till the end of 2009 to seriously look, we have no $$ right now so we'll be lucky if by 2010 we could have a 10% down payment with the house prices around here. We so badly want to own our own home, but doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon. :(

Passports

We're going to get our passport pictures and turn in our applications tonight.
I'm so excited for our trip to Montego Bay, I can't wait to relax and enjoy the heat.

For our anniversary we're staying at a Sandals resort in Jamaica, there is so much fun stuff to do I hope we can fit it all in. Not only do we have our whole resort to roam, but we have access to two other resorts and the one we are staying at has a private island right off the coast. We have a room with a view on the ocean, it's just right behind the pool which meets the sand. They have so many activities available and fun themed parties at night and best of all it's all-inclusive.

5 1/2 months to go...

Something a little different

Lastnight Corey wasn't going to be home so I went and tanned and on my way home he called and said he was at the shooting range and would be leaving. So while I'm waiting for him I'm folding laundry and Andrea & Oliver show up, we hung out at the house a little and then went to Mi Casa for dinner. After Mi Casa we met Big John at Goathill, everyone was so surprised to see me out on a worknight and it was really fun.

I think the 4 of us are going to go to Disneyland next Monday. How fun!

Monday Blues

I don't particularly like Mondays.

I really hate waking up Monday mornings and leaving for work while my husband gets to stay in bed. I've started to realize how much time we don't get to spend together and it's starting to bother me. It sounds ridiculous to say we don't spend much time together but it's true. The only day we have is Sundays and lately we've been so busy with family stuff we don't really get to spend that quality time together. This weekend Corey had to work Friday and Saturday 7am-4pm then both nights again from 9pm-3am. I don't even know how he functioned yesterday. I tried to stay up Saturday night and wait for him to get off but that didn't work.

I went through a lot of stuff lastnight and threw away 2 bags full of random useless things collected on my bookshelf. It feels refreshing to get the clutter out. I also organized half the closet...my half. Hopefully tonight I can start on the office. That is a project I'm not looking forward to.

Our House

We were very busy this weekend cleaning house. Our garage looks amazing and we still have some boxes to get rid of and things for Goodwill. I finally hung all our wedding photos up and and our 2 new chairs will be arriving this weekend. The bathroom looks great with the new colors we've gone with and I will be hanging the artwork tonight. We still have a lot to do in the bedroom and office, I'm so over those 2 rooms, I need to go in and throw a bunch of stuff away.
Hopefully I'll be motivated and get a lot done tonight after work.
