Revive
I have been lacking sleep the last few days. My body is just out of whack, it’s obvious and I can totally feel it. Last Thursday night I stayed up until 2am putting finishing touches on the surprise montage I was going to show in Vegas. While in Vegas, both Friday and Saturday nights were spent […]
{recipe} cream cheese veggie dip
With summer in full swing, we often have friends and family over at our house to swim every weekend. I’m always looking for quick snacks and dips I can serve to a hungry crowd and something that will be appetizing after being in the hot sun in the afternoon. The original recipe that I […]
What I Ate {9}
The sun has decided to come out from hiding. We’ve had a rainy week here in SoCal, but today was great. Sunny and clear. Which means, I abandoned the treadmill today and ventured outdoors to go to the park for a 4 mile run. I was excited to get out and listen to new Jillian […]
Super Bowl 10K
Happy Super Bowl Sunday! I am up early today to run at the beach. Oh yes, I am running under the sun, bright and early today at a 10K (hmmm, that rhymes). Today’s forecast calls for mid 70s. This is my second year running at the Redondo Beach Super Bowl Sunday 10K. I love the […]
Why I Love To Travel
This past summer (and this year in general) has been the best of times. Having returned from a month long travel, both for our destination wedding in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and for our honeymoon, island hopping in the Philippines…..I wanted to talk (and put into writing) about why I love to travel and why I always […]
Summer Plans
I feel like a year’s worth of travel all happened in one month. Chris and I had a moment today where we reflected on all the things that has happened to us in the last month. We are so grateful for all the blessings that have come our way. We both love to travel and […]
lately
Here’s what we have been up to lately….. We try to spend a few hours over the weekend to visit my sister, brothers and nephew. We are all grieving my mom’s death differently but for me, spending time with family as much as I can feels good. My mom used to live with my sister, […]
Havana Banana
My workout this morning was a challenging one. My muscles have been missing the muscle burn. For the last few weeks, I have been enjoying more cardio type of workouts….running, hiking and indoor gym workouts. I wanted to try something new to get back into strength training and this DVD is new to me. I’ve […]
Healthy Coconut 
California is gorgeous! I can’t wait to visit there someday.
April, there is so much to do here. You will definitely enjoy yourself. Hope you can come travel and visit my home state.
Love these pictures!! Looks like you are having a blast!!
Glad you’re having fun! The jumping picture is so cute
so much fun! i can’t wait to see more pics. loving these! 🙂
Holy bejesus you can jump HIGH! Love that pic!
Keep up the good times 🙂
When I read your comment and saw “Holy bejesus” on my phone, last Friday, you made me laugh out loud.
I played varsity volleyball throughout high school, that’s where I got the skills to jump high 🙂
I’m so in love with your clothes, you seem to have my kind of style.. or actually a style I wish I had 😀
Anne, I am a bargain shopper. That yellow top was $3 at a sample sale and the boots are from Ross or Marshall’s. You’ve got style girl, just need to rock it. Part of the reason I like traveling is to wear different style of seasonal clothes 🙂
wow, awesome pictures! the vineyard looks amazing!
Sunny, thanks. The fall colors on the winery is so beautiful. Never been to Napa when the wineries are yellow and orange colors.
Napa is so beautiful! I have only been there once, but is that first picture of the cooking school? I think I remember eating lunch there…
Gorgeous photo of you on the sidebar. You are a knockout, especially in pink!
Thank you so much Ameena. The first picture of the building that looks like a chateau is Domaine Carneros Winery, I believe they are famous for their champagne. Oh, I’m intrigue about this cooking school you speak of? What’s the name of it? There are really cheap flights from Long Beach to San Francisco this season (as low as $19) that I might be making another trip soon.
Wow it is so Beautiful over there, I just have to go that is how I picture it and more. 🙂
Hey you are funny you jumped pretty high. Love your personality I am so shy it’s only with a few that I can be silly and let my hair down. I need to loosen up it’s so much fun being like that though.
Glad to see you are enjoying yourself.
😛
Annette, yes it was beautiful. We lucked out because the weather was perfect. I don’t remember wearing short sleeves in San Francisco during any of my trips.
I played volleyball throughout high school and that’s where I learned to jump really high because I was a hitter and also a blocker. Yes, I don’t mind being silly because it’s just all fun and games. I do get a little shy when I have to be in front of a lot of people, but at the wineries, it wasn’t too crowded so it was fine.
YAY! I see Evie!
