Fun and Friends!

We have had a busy week! One of my fellow site supervisors is moving to Colorado, so we had a good bye party for him! It was sad, but he will have lots of fun!

John brought us to this little bar place downtown...it was very unique...There was a guy playing all of these different songs on keyboard. He was pretty funny.


Alecis had a bunch of girls over for a girls night, she made us dinner, and organized a game where she send all of our husbands a questionnaire and they had to fill it out, and we had to guess what they would say. It was fun and I got to know everyone a lot more!



So Nate and I came home to his jeans all chewed up...the belt loops were missing and they looked like this...


My question is...was it the dog or the cat? What do you think?

Happy Valentines day/week!

We had a wonderful Valentines day and week leading up to it! Nate is such a sweetheart, he made me dinner and bought flowers and chocolate....it was a dream :)



We had tons of fun with Joel! Here is another picture, this is from when we walked around Balboa park. It was pretty cool. We were watching one of those street preformor type people and he called me up to help him! I was not going to go, but with all of those people watching me...I had to. So he had me stand up there and hold plungers and hand them to him while he climbed on this guys back and juggled them.




We went to Phils BBQ in Point Loma last night, it was awesome! We had always driven by it and it smelled so good, but yesterday we gave it a try. It was so yummy, we think it beats out Dave's favorite BBQ place in Tennessee. So Dave, if you ever come visit, we are taking you there!!!

It rained yesterday a bit, and I have noticed the most beautiful rainbows here. They are always really long, and the last time it rained there were two perfect rainbows right next to each other. I saw this one as I left the school. (the school in the background is where I work! )

Well, I hope that all is well with everyone. What did you do for Valentines day?

Joel!

So Joel is here! We did some sightseeing yesterday and went to a Wallflowers Concert! It was a good one. It has been very sunny here this weekend, it is almost 80 today, and it was 70 yesterday, so perfect weather for him to escape the snow. Nate and Joel and surfing right now, and we are going to the Zoo this afternoon!


Kelly and I went to see Colbie Caillat Friday night. She was awesome. I love her voice. Trevor Hall and Chris Steele opened for her. They were really fun to watch. Chris Steele plays a Cajon, which is a really cool drum thing...you can watch a clip of him here.



Well, that is all for now! What did you do this weekend?

We bought a car!

So I am proud to announce we bought a car! It is a 1998 Toyota Camry. We found it on Autotrader, and went to test drive it yesterday. Its a really nice car. I will put up pictures as soon as I have them! It is the first car we have bought together, and the first car we bought from someone we didn't know. We are going through so many learning experiences out here!

Other than that, we have just been living life. This weekend Joel Hamstra is coming to visit us and we are SUPER excited! I am going to see Colbie Caillat this Friday with my friend Kelly, and then Nate, Joel and I are going to see The Wallflowers. They were my first concert ever when I was in like 7th grade. That should be a fun one! What was your first concert? What was your favorite concert?

Ollie, Maddi, and Belle (Maddi's best California friend) enjoying the sunshine!




Have a wonderful day!
