0018 -- holiday weekends

jordan and i returned to LA last night and today. we've spent the last four days in san diego visiting our families and friends. we haven't had this much time off together since xmas when we got engaged! we really needed a little time off to enjoy each other, relax, and catch up on our sleep. we brought our others, marissa and stephen and their two puppy babies penny and walter.
on thursday we went over see jordan's mom & dad for a little visit before heading over to my best friend joy's family's house where we swam, bbqed amazing carne asada. after we left there we went over to a friend's ranch where we were able to bon fire and watch the fireworks!

on friday we woke up much later and much lazier making it the perfect day to head over to the pool and the community center for some serious ping ponging. this month also marks the 10 year anniversary of having my little toy poodle, sukie!!

saturday marissa and i had some homework (ie: getting me registered for my upcoming bridal shower). of course i have no how these things go, so i just assumed registering at one place would be fine...needless to say, i was wrong. we went with jordan's mum and got us registered for some new fun things for our next step! we then made a chocolate mousse pie (which i've been dying to learn to make for years! after we left jordan's parents we were off to go see my parents who were playing a little block party show with some of their friends. it was really neat getting to see my parents rock out and play all this music that reminded me of my youth!

phew! you getting sick of me yet? just a few more!!! sunday we were up early and went for a walk around one of the old parks that jordan and i both grew up going to. jordan and i were due at a wedding that evening for my best friend's eldest brother. he and his fiance designed the whole wedding in an adorable carnival theme complete with games and all! unfortunately i didn't get too many good photos of the actual wedding, but did snap a few with my bffy and her sister!!

it was kind of lovely to end the weekend on such a romantic note, especially with our big day only 64 days away now!! hope that you had a lovely holiday weekend and getting back to the grind isn't too rough!!
