Fall Quarter has NOT been kind to me... my classes are tres difficult. :( Maybe the fact that I'm suffering from a bad case of senioritis may be a part of it - I don't know? Charlie and I have been really busy these last few weeks and are really looking forward to a break from school and the usual responsibilities to enjoy Thanksgiving.
There has been so much going on since I last posted (my bad) - so I'll do my best to update you on life's happenings.
September 28 was my family's 6 Year Anniversary, so we all got together to spend the day together. Charlie, Booth and I all went over to my parents' in the morning to have a delicious breakfast made my the parentals.
Veggie egg mcmuffin
My awesome parents. :)
Instead of getting our food, he got to play with the water bottle.
We all sat around watching the wedding video while enjoying the yummy food. :) It was hilarious to see all of us kids, we were so little - Cody was just a pipsqueak!
Booth likes to listen to his Uncle Cody play guitar.
After we were done eating, we all went to be pampered - thats right, we got pedicures!!! (even the boys... they love it) and the girlies got manicures.
Enjoying the being spoiled
We picked up Juju afterwards and went to visit my grandma up in Loma Linda to spend some time with her.
After not much debate, we all went over to Cuca's for delicious dinner! I love it there... the salsa is perfecto and the homemade tortillas and chips make the meal complete.
Sadly we had to take Cody home - but we finished off the night at Stell (a.k.a. the BEST coffee place around!)
My Chai Latte with soy. :)
Hubby and me in conversation with the rest of the family
We started school on the 22nd of Sept... so that marked the end of the majority of a social life. lol However that Thursday was the season premiere of The Office so we started an awesome tradition of watching it with our amazing friends Kristi and Brandon... usually with delicious Ben & Jerry's ice cream. :) Its a great thing to look forward to every Thursday night, yummy comfort food, good company, and laughing hysterically! Its poo that Nick has to work until 10 but when he's done he comes over and we hang out for a while... I love my people.
October 23, the psychology department all went to Guppy House to have Boba...and watch Dr. Martin challenge others to a stuffing-noodles-in-the-mouth competition. pretty hilairous!
She's our awesome professor... :)
Yep, thats my husband...
Yvette & Dennis
Stephanie, Yvette & Dennis
(I got the shaved ice with mangos, strawberries and bananas... it was enough for everyone to have some)
My apple milk tea with 20% boba does just the trick...
The 30th was Charlie's 22nd birthday. We woke up early to make Halloween pancakes with some pretty nifty molds that I bought last year on sale... :)
Sadly we weren't as successful as we wanted but it was still delicious! I had classes in the morning but took most of the afternoon off to go take him out to lunch at In-n-Out (his choice). We had Political Psychology that evening, which was fun. (Its one of the better classes I've taken)... By the time we got home it was time to clean up the apartment for Kristi, Brandon, LeAnn and Kay to come over to enjoy delicious Thai food.
Red Curry with Tofu! :) What would the world be like without it??? awful, thats what it would be!
LeAnn brought over homemade peanut butter and chocolate cupcakes. Since it was a Thursday night Charlie didn't want to change our routine of watching The Office but he did insist on watching Nightmare Before Christmas (which was one of his gifts).
Friday night we all went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner.
Happy Birthday Hubby!!
Krissy & Jordan
Deborah, Kristi and Brandon
Me and my favorite cousin.
Charlie and his mama
Us after dinner.
Charlie got an iPhone for his birthday... lucky boy. :)
Saturday morning we drove out to the Alcove to meet Tatiana and Erik for breakfast... it was soooo yummy!!! Charlie got curried tofu eggs benedict, which was to die for.
I got peach crepes which had a espresso infused whipped cream (heaven) on top...
It was so great to get to see them - sadly we live too far away from each other to actually get to hang out on a regular basis.
Thankfully we had the opportunity to catch up and enjoy some time with amazing people. :)
That evening we went to the Jason Mraz concert with Kristi and Brandon (Yvette and Darren were there too but weren't sitting with us). The concert was AMAZING! One of the highlights is that Lisa Hannigan was opening for him - for those of you who aren't familiar with her, she is the female vocalist who sings with my favorite artist, Damien Rice. I was so excited to finally hear her in person that I just sat in awe. (I'm now on the hunt for her cd) Jason Mraz put on an excellent concert (to be expected) and we were pleasantly surprised to have him and Lisa sing "lucky" during the encore. it was AWESOME!!!!
The boys...
Yvette got a picture of us after the concert... aren't we cool??
We're awesome people!
My wonderful birthday boy. :)
After the concert we got to meet her...pretty darn awesome!
November 4th as we all know was election day. I was really excited to FINALLY be able to vote... so I tried to be a responsible citizen and read up on all the propositions and who was running for each of the offices (senate, representative, school board...) Charlie and I walked over to Sierra Vista Chapel and I got to vote! :)
That evening we got to go watch the returns at Dr. Mallery's for our Political Psychology class. I'll try not to be too political on here... but I was sad to see the way some of the things went... mainly Prop 8. :( Although I'm really happy that Prop 2 passed!!! :) go animals!!!!
007 came out this last weekend, so Kristi, Brandon, Nick, Charlie and I all went to see the midnight showing... it was good - wonderful clothes and cars. I just liked the story line in Casino Royale better. But it was still very enjoyable. Saturday was LeAnn's birthday so Charlie and I took her to go see it in the evening. I liked it more the second time. :)
that afternoon Psi Chi had an outing up in Oak Glen. It was so beautiful up there!!!
Pathway by the horses heading down by the orchards..
sigh... whats wrong with Riverside??? NO color in Autumn.
I had to take advantage of the fall colors!
I miss my horses, so she got lots of attention from me.
Fresh apple dumpling... YUMMY!
Now for an update on our puppup!!!! :) He's already 18 1/2 weeks old! Geez the time is flying by and he's growing like a weed!!! :\ This last week he was all done with his vaccinations, so we took him to PetCo to pick out a few toys - (he's spoiled rotten!) and this last Sunday we took him to his first puppy class. So cute! Here are some pictures of him over the past few weeks!
"what are you looking at?"
"Treats?!?!?!?!?!?!?!"
"I wish I was brave enough to jump off the bed..."
One of his last times fitting under here... :(
Napping with his stuffed monkey in the coffee table.
hello.
Lets go for a ride!!!!
I'm your co-pilot!
I love my Uncle Nick!!!!!
the happiest face in the world!!!
Shaking a bit...
TENNIS BALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!
"What that daddy???"
"What are these little white things running around mommy???"
"My Christmas Jack...!"
4 1/2 months old - freshly cleaned! :)
sleepy after bath time.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
This Friday Charlie and I are going with Deborah and Brandon on a road trip up to Salt Lake City, which is where we're meeting Kristi because Saturday we're seeing COLDPLAY!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited! :)
Thats it for now I'll update as soon as I can. Hope you all are doing well!
