christmas lights.

Anthony and I went and looked at Christmas lights on Tuesday. There are few houses that we have to go to every year because they really go all out. It's amazing! I can't imagine how much time all of this takes! 

We made it a date and got coffees at a local shop and cruised around listening to Christmas music. 

Don't you wish Christmas time could be all year long?? But then I guess if it were it wouldn't have that magic feel to it. Le sigh. 

The rest of my Christmas week included watching Christmas Vacation, drinking egg nog, wrapping presents, baking walnut snowball cookies, and being excited to open the mail box and get cards. 

I hope your Christmas season has been wonderful! It kind of flew by this year but I hope you were able to enjoy it! 

Merry Christmas!

weekend roundup!

This past weekend was seriously one of my favorites! I was just in a terribly good mood and the weather was awesomely perfect..

proof

my facebook status update for Saturday was- "Hi it's January and I'm wearing a t-shirt. I love California"

true story.

Friday was spent with Anthony. We had a nice little date night. Ate bomb Thai food, delicious ice cream (lemon custard!), and saw No Strings Attached.

We started planning out our trip to Costa Rica as well!

(anyone been?)

Saturday, I had coffee with a girlfriend and then we decided to drive down to Sacramento and spend the day walking around. We walked around old town Sacramento, walked over to the State Capitol, and had a sushi roll and beer @ Mikunis in midtown. Perfect!

Later that night, we had a bonfire at Ants coworkers house.

It was a nice little night.

Sunday, Ant brought me Jamba Juice in bed. =)

then we went target shooting.

followed by a nap while the football game was on.

in addition to a coffee and grocery shopping.

capped off with snuggles, tv, and reading.

simple, wonderful, relaxing, and fun all rolled into one fabulous weekend!

What did you do?
