I want the Sun!


Last week Spring was in full swing. It was sunny and warm.
My sister and I frolicked in daffodils.
We ate Mexican food outside.


Today I woke up to snow on my car.
It was 31 degrees.
I'm ready for summer now.

Cheers!


Last week was insane.

Monday was Anthony's family birthday party.

(Ant's birthday a few years back..cute)
Tuesday would normally be my photography class but this week it was Ant's birthday. So we did Thai and a movie. The Hurt Locker. (really good)

(Ant and I at the Blink and Weezer concert..it's a cute one)
Wednesday I rushed and did laundry (at the laundry mat) and then went to a dinner party.

(At the dinner party...making some sushi!)
Thursday went to the Zac Brown Band concert in Sacramento. Didn't get home until 12:30, went to sleep at 1:30.

(Brit, me, Kim, and Lacie and our $9 dollar beers)

Friday was another sushi date with my sister and cousin. After eating we took it over to the local dive bar (the Mine Shaft...affectionately known as the Shaft.)

(me, Cyndi, and Brit)
Saturday was another crazy day. I went to a going away party with my friend, Kim. It was for her brother. The party started at 2. That's when I started drinking. I was at very nice level point until I did a Jager Bomb. Down hill from there. Let's just say that I can't even think or look at alcohol.... for a while.

(Kim and I)

(Justin and I.. don't you like the yellow sign coming out of my head like I'm wearing a graduation cap?)

Sunday... felt like poooooop......didn't do anything. I had a two day hangover! Not even kidding. Has that ever happened to anyone else?

To say the least it was an awesome, amazing, long, tiring week. Cheers to another!

baking and drinking


Last Friday my sister came over for a little girl time!!



Cupcake making and Wine drinking!!

I made these Lemon cupcakes. They turned out pretty good a little dense but I probably over mixed it. You live and you learn.

Brit decided to make some mini cheesecake cupcakes. They were tasty as well. :)


The wine my sister brought over was really good! It's called Firefly Ridge and it's a 07 Cabernet Sauvignon ...Me likey!!

For some reason I didn't get any pictures of the final results... probably because it was way after midnight after we were done.. I was irritable, tired, and a little tipsy. Next time!! :)

March Madness

Things to look forward to...

-Anthony's birthday weekend. I'm taking him to Sushi in the Raw. Best sushi! Also the best Scallop shoots (with filtered sake of course)! Taking him shopping on Sunday to get him a new motorcycle jacket for his trip to Death Valley next week.




-Going to see the Zac Brown Band next Thursday with my girlfriends plus my baby sister. :) I love them! I'm really starting to appreciate county music more. I'm a little bit of everything when it comes to music but I use to put my nose up to county. I'm glad my sister got me listening to it more. It's in my blood!

-The possibility that it could snow tomorrow. I know everyone probably thinks I'm crazy for thinking that this would be something to look forward to but it didn't snow here much this year and I wouldn't mind seeing it one last time before spring.

(snow storm last year around this time of year)

-Setting the clocks forward in a couple weeks. I love when the nights get longer. It gives me that funny felling in my tummy.

Well that's all I can think of now. But I know for sure there is a slue of things that I'm looking forward to from the small and insignificant to the exciting!

RENT!

So this is a little late but about a month ago Anthony and I went down to Sacramento to see RENT! It was the most beautiful day. The show was amazing. I'm so glad I got to see it while it was in town, not to mention the very last day of the show for the tour!! Oh and with original cast members! Yay! I can't imagine anyone else playing Mark.. Anthony Rapp just does it so well!





We had pretty close seats too! Which was awesome!! :)

We stood outside the cast room door that lead outside so we could get some autographs and see the stars! :) Adam Pascal was the first out which was really surprising! We weren't sure if Anthony Rapp was going to come out but he finally did!

It was a really FUN day! I can't wait to go to more Broadway shows when I visit New York!


Here are a few more pictures of the downtown Sacramento area. The state capital building is beautiful! I think it would be fabulous to live in Midtown. Expensive though.
