camera blues.

Hi, Friends.

I'm sad to say that since I got my iphone I haven't pulled out my real camera.

It's actually depressing.

I love my iphone but there is something about taking out a real camera and focusing on the subject with a twist of the lens.

With that said, I pledge to myself to put the darn phone down and take some pictures with a real camera. I will start this coming weekend!

I'm headed down to Southern California on Thursday to visit my sister and friends. I'm really looking forward to getting away for the weekend!

I have been feeling a bit blue the past week or so. Not sure what's up but I think this might be the trick to pull me back...

Disneyland, good food, beach time, 75 degree weather, etc...

Bring it on!!! =)

5 years.

San Francisco. October 22nd and 23rd. 

Our 5 year anniversary.

We started dating when we were just babies (or so it feels like). 

We have seen and done so much together. 

I can't wait to see more of the world with you! 

Thailand, Vietnam, NYC, Portland? 

Where ever we go next it won't matter because we will make the most of it.

And this concludes my San Fran posts. We had a good time. End of story. =) 

take me to LA

I have been feeling weird the past week or two. Tired, weak, and lazy. Just drained all together. I guess some pretty emotional things have been going on over here in my life. I suppose that could be the reasoning? I have been a real grump lately too... just ask Anthony. He so kindly (most of the time) puts up with it. I thank him for that.

But it's time to cheer up and get a good nights sleep because Anthony and I are driving down to the O.C. tomorrow after work. Spending a day in Disneyland, hanging out in LA for an outdoor food/movie fest, maybe some beach time, and most importantly spending time with my sister Erica and my bestie Leslie.

I'm looking forward to the few days of overeating, picture taking, laughing, and visiting. I always come back exhausted. But it's worth it.

Peace out until next week. I hope to be better at documenting my summer shenanigans. So much to catch up on.

*pictures from the trip there in January! =)

SF

I just now realized that I never put up any photos from my San Francisco trip that we took in OCTOBER! Lame! I don't think I even put of the pictures onto my facebook.... (gasp! now thats saying something)! I wanted to share a few because it was absolutely the best weekend in SF. The weather was perfect! Plus, Anthony and I had fun exploring different neighborhoods that we haven't spent a lot of time in.

Walking through China town

Gelato in Nob Hill

The Golden Gate

Hanging out at Coit Tower

Coffee at Cafe Triste (Dinner was at the Stinking Rose)

Breakfast the next day @ Farm:Table. I had the daily toast. Whole wheat, mascarpone, figs, nuts, apples, and cinnamon. Light and really good!

Local artist in the Mission

Love the colors and culture of that area!

Houses in Haight-Ashbury

49ers game to top of the day! Enjoying our $12 dollar beers. =)

I love San Francisco. It's a really unique city and has a lot to offer. It holds a special place in my heart because a lot of my family is from the Bay.

I can't wait to go back! Next trip will probably be a girls weekend! woot
