Our lazy Saturday!!!

This past weekend we had a very lazy Saturday. I ended up not working so we just hung out at home all day. Darrell and Yoko look so sweet cuddled up sleeping on the couch!

 So, Darrell and I don't have any kids to post pictures or videos of, but we do have a pretty sweet dog so you will all just have bear with me! When Yoko was sleeping next to me on the couch Saturday afternoon She was dreaming and it was so funny I had to run for my camera to record it so I could share it with everyone! 

 

 Saturday night we hung out with Kelsey and Blake. After a lot of debating between chipotle and Pei Wei's for food we chose Pei Wei's (Darrell was a little sad). Blake drove and while we were driving down the freeway on our way home there was this truck with the back completely full of furniture. Suddenly a couch fell out the side of the back of this truck and blake had to swerve so it didn't hit his car and kill us all. It was a little scary! We had decided we wanted to watch the Olympics basketball game between the U.S.A. and Spain but it didn't start until 12:30 am so we stayed up and waited for the game to start and then when it did start it didn't end until 2:30 in the morning! But the good old U.S.A. won the game so it was all worth it! 



So back to our dog... She LOVES Blake. Whenever Blake comes over she won't leave him alone. She's always trying to play and cuddle with him. This is her trying to eat his foot while he was busy watching the game. Saturday was a great day!

My Birthday!!

This past weekend I turned 24! I had a great birthday this year. My Mom and Dad made me a great dinner for my birthday two weekends ago. They gave me this really cool book with all of Jane Austen's novels combined. Last Thursday night we went out with some of our good friends Kelsey, Blakey, Fat Tim, and Challa. We went to Mi Ranchito (it has been my favorite place to eat for as long as I can remember) and then we went to a movie. It was so much fun! I usually work only on the weekends but I took Saturday and Sunday off to relax for my birthday. It was a great weekend. My parents took our family to Lagoon for the day for mine and my older brothers birthdays (his was in June). We haven't been for a long time! We had so much fun riding rides and just being together. The best thing we did that day was driving the go carts! My Dad accidently hit some random girl and made her spin out on the track! As we were leaving we played the game where you have to slam the hammer down on the little post to supposedly test your strength (hopefully that makes sense) and my Dad and my sister won me a stuffed killer whale. Darrell was so sweet for my birthday too! He made me breakfast in bed, took me to a movie (one that all of his friends would make fun of him for really bad), made me a yummy steak dinner (with roasted potatoes and roasted green beans) and he bought me a new phone! All in all it was a great birthday. Thanks for all the birthday wishes from everyone!
