TGIF: Time for Family

It's forecasted to be 80 degrees + in San Clemente this weekend so... we will be having our first little family BBQ on Sunday. Our parents and Bryan's grandpa will be in the house and we're super excited. Saturday will be spent finishing the ceiling paint in the master and installing crown moulding throughout the house (we [read: Bryan] will be installing it himself... positive thoughts his way please!) I am really excited for everyone to see how far we've come in three short weeks.

Happy sunny weekend internet!

TGIF: A Great Weekend Ahead

We are closing on our new house today. It's exciting and a little nerve wracking but I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm excited to celebrate this new chapter in our lives with a great glass of wine tonight and am anxious and ready to dive into all of the plans we have for making our new house into our home.

Home is Where the Heart Is

Happy Weekend!

TGIF- Time to Make Time

This weekend will be about re-prioritizing my life. 

Somewhere amidst the paperwork and emails and stress-induced-hives these two guys fell by the wayside. Not. No. More. 

Happy First October weekend! 

Beat the Huskies!

and

Fight On!

TGIF- Ooohhh La-la

I like to play a little game called Wouldn't it be funny if... ( A very amusing game I should be playing in my head and not out-loud probably).
Last night it was Wouldn't it be funny if we had a pet Penguin?!?! I decided to youtube pet penguin and came across Lala, a King penguin living in Japan with a loving family (he was rescued form a fishing net, was nursed back to health by this family and as all true love should be he refused to leave them). He lives in his very own air conditioned room underneath their stairs. The real kicker, he wears a penguin backpack when he walks to the neighborhood fish market for a little shopping. (The size of the fish he gobbles down when he gets there is pretty impressive too btw!).

Here is the youtube video:

Of course immediately after watching this video 5 times, I had Bryan google California laws on keeping a pet penguin... alas, they're too steep... My Lala will have to live in my dreams... 

What a wonderful way to begin the weekend, no?
