Merry Christmas!

Christmas was a good one this year! We got together with my mom's side of the family for a dinner which was fun, I got to hang out with some of my cousins I haven't seen in forever. Christmas eve we had a dinner at The Gregory house. We had some yummy food and yes I tried a mushroom- yuck. We played a fun Christmas trivia game with everyone and had some yummy desert. Can I tell you this Christmas I almost died when it came to sweets. They were everywhere and I was so burnt out on them in the end. Christmas day we opened presents at my family's house. I got lots of cute clothes, a Brighton bracelet, and a gift card to get my nails done. Chris got lots of clothes, shoes, and a wallet. Later, we went to Chris' fams. We got a Wii! They got one for each family, it was pretty cool. We finished the night off by having a dinner at my house and having a Wii and Rock Band 2 Party. We were exhausted in the end! I can't believe it's almost a new year!

Ugly Sweater Winners!

We had our Distinctive Insurance Christmas party this year and decided to throw in a little twist. We made it an ugly sweater party- and yes me and Chris our proud to say we were the winners. Chris' sweater was disgusting, we got it at savers. The funny thing was when we walked in to the party someone new what brand it was right off because I guess Bill Cosby used to wear them all of the time in the 80s. EWW LOL. We got my nasty sweater at Kmart and I had to add tacky Santa earrings for a nice touch. The party was funny, everyone brought good white elephant gifts. We got an Obama figurine because we know how everyone hates him at work and then a tacky basketball stocking that played music. Some people got pretty creative. Keri found this hideous vase with crazy faces and Mark had Whitney make a bed pan full of yellow jello and a baby ruth.Sam changed into a 3 different sweaters throughout the night, he was hilarious. I'm still bummed he didn't do his rap. Good times!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Yesterday was my 23rd Birthday and it was a good one! Friday I took the day off and went Christmas shopping and then Chris and I got a suite at The Green Valley Ranch. My brother hooked us up!-He's the front desk manager and got us a smokin deal. We went and ate King's Fish House for dinner at the District and it was good! Saturday we ate at my fav The Original Pancake House and then got a couple's massage. We finished off the night going out to dinner and getting Golden Spoon. Chris got me some Hudson Jeans and perfume. Tonight I get to celebrate with my family, It should be fun!

Thanksgiving with the Gregory's

Happy Thanksgiving!!It's crazy the holidays are already here. We had a yummy dinner with Chris' fam and bowling after for some fun. Tomorrow we get to have dinner with my fam and be fat kids all over again whoo!

Rex's new favorite snuggle spot....

The Office Halloween Payback

The girls at work got stuck working on Halloween and all of the guys managed to be off so lets just say we decided to have some fun and give them a surprise on Monday!

Happy Halloween

My friend Courtney had a Halloween Party so me and Chris threw some costumes together last minute. Chris was Scuba Steve and I was an 80's bombshell- righttt. The funny thing was I found both of these costumes here at my house. We kept our nasty 80s wet suits in the garage. Let me tell you, this was an adventure in itself trying to get this bad boy on Chris! Then I found my awesome jumpsuit in our hall closet- it was my Grandma's back in the day. My mom also kept some disgusting hair accessories and jewelry to add to my fancy costume. We met up with friends, Kellie and Bryan Farley. They looked cute! It was a fun night.

I Love Justin!

Last Night was so fun! My friend Keri gave me Justin Timberlake tickets. My sister in law Jenn and I went to the concert and had a blast. It was a benefit concert so Rihanna, 50cent, Leona Lewis, Will I am, Jonas Brothers, Boys 2 Men, and of course Justin performed. I think it was the best concert I've been too. Justin put on such a good show, i was like a little girl again, thinkin he was all hot dancing. I'm a nerd but he was really good! The people there were hilarious too. There were these ladies in front of us that were probably in there late 30s dancing so bad. One had the best move ever she did the whole time. I should of recorded it, I was dying laughing. Then there was this dorky nerdy girl that was dancing so ugly a couple of seats down. She was trying to be all sexy, it was great. And then did I forget to mention the couple right next to me all over each other. They were basically freakin up on each other all night. I guess they didn't care everyone was watching them. I almost threw up in my mouth. Another thing I just love when your in a room of tons of people and someone keeps farting. You get the waft of butt and you're wondering who the heck keeps doing it and you hope no one thinks it's you. Anyways you got to love it. It was definitely a night to remember!

Special Ed Chef

So it's official I suck at cooking. Katie my sister-in-law gave me a meatball recipe and garlic mashed potatoes. K meatballs piece of cake, potatoes- I'm used to instant in a box. So Katie acts like I know how to cook and puts very little detail on the recipe. The recipe reads about 4 garlic cloves to add to the boiling water so I go to the store and buy 4 bulbs of garlic. I throw those babies in with the potatoes to cook and thought nothing of it. My other sister-in-law happened to come over and about died when she saw what I was doing. For all of you who don't cook let me give you some advice. You are supposed to peel skin off of these things like an onion and in 1 bulb there's at least 10 cloves. So do the math I was putting in 4 bulbs! My potatoes would have been so garlicky and gross. The funny thing was I had no idea and I even wasn't sure if i was supposed to take them out after boiling and mash them in the potatoes. That would of been funny! I didn't feel so bad until I told some friends at work and they all knew, so that made me realize I better start watching Rachel Ray.

Babysitting my husband

Chris and I aren't that exciting. I don't have a fun post but I thought this was pretty entertaining last night. Me and him went to dinner and we wanted to go somewhere new. We haven't been to Macaroni Grill forever and we thought we should go for a change. Well, I basically forgot why we don't go there. My husband is worse than a little kid when it comes to that place. He embarrassed me so bad! For all of those who have been there you know there is a table cloth you can draw on with crayons. Well he loves that! Our waitress happened to be a girl I knew in high school which made it more embarrassing. So Chris sits down and was so excited about drawing pictures. He started drawing boobies and wieners all over our table. I was sooo mad. I kept trying to take away the crayons and covering his pictures with the plates. He thought he was so funny, he wouldn't hand over the crayons and kept moving the plates back to embarrass me. Then he started drawing flowers and space ships. He just gets a kick out of making me mad. I felt like I had to be his mother and yell at him the whole night. It was pretty funny because all you could do was laugh at the situation but sometimes I wonder why boys are so immature. So I decided we aren't going back!

Makeover Time!

I finally cut my hair! I've never had short hair in my life and always wanted to try it out. I always chicken out but today I was feeling brave. I chopped it off for a fun little change!

Newport Beach

We went to Newport Beach with Chris' family to a beach house. It was a different house that we stayed at this year and we called it the booby beach house because in every room there were paintings with tons of boobs LOL.It was a fun trip and so nice to get away. It went way to quick though. I was stupid and so excited to lay out I wore a 4 and got fried the first day so the second day I had to hide in the shade. I only got in the water once, it was pretty rough. I did one nice wave and decided that was enough after I got slammed by a wave, although the boys had lots of fun in the water. We did some shopping at the Irvine Spectrum. I got some cute shirts at Buckle and Saturday we hit the swat meet. I got some cute sunglasses, a purse and wallet, and some shoes. I can't wait for next year!

Tribute to Twitch

I'm bummed about Josh winning SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE. He was good, but I really wanted Twitch to win- I love him! He is hilarious! I just got back from Cali and luckily I could watch most of the finale there. I recorded it here at home so I'm going to watch what I missed tonight. This was the first year I wanted more than one person to win, I loved Chelsey, and Katie was an amazing dancer. I'm glad Katie won some money in the end. So one thing that drove me nuts was my two sister in laws wanted to ruin the surprise for me! They thought they were so funny. I waited all season and was so excited to see who won but they don't like surprises and they are those types of people who spoil it and look online before the end of the show to see who won. Then they kept giving little hints which basically gave it away to me. All those people who look before- what's the fun in that?! I'm over it- I still love them. And of course my husband loves to ruin these reality shows for me too because he hates them so when Cat was saying the winner is.... Chris yelled Josh right before her- He's gay!

Game Night!

Saturday we had a little get together and Michelle's house. We had yummy mexican food and played games. We had such a good time playing catch phrase and the name game. Us girls almost peed our pants a couple times when the boys had to get up and do the action part of the name game- I love it, it was hilarious! Good times! Amber we missed you and Devon, we'll have to do it again!

The best show ever...

My obsession is So You Think You Can Dance! All I have to say is Comfort has to go tonight and Thane is so gay!I'm over Jessica too. My favs are Chelsey, Courtney and Gev! Kerington is so cute and I love Twitch too! Someone needs to knock Mary out, she's so freakin annoying!I love seeing Buddy(Napoleon)and Tab on the show, they are so dang good!I can't wait for tonight...

Happy 4th of July

Today was nice and eventful. We started off by going to my in laws to have a swim party with the fam and a BBQ. Then back to my house for a neighborhood BBQ and some fireworks. It was pretty funny most of the people on our street came over to our house. My brothers when all out this year and got tons of illegals. Our whole neighborhood went crazy, it looked like a real show!

Happy Birthday Honey!

Thursday was Chris' 23rd Birthday! He got spoiled with clothes and I took him out to Cheesecake to celebrate. Tonight he got another little celebration with his fam. Chris is seriously hilarious. When it's his birthday he likes to think he's special the whole month. The whole month he'll make excuses to get out of everything because it's his birthday, or he likes to mention if he wants something done for him, "but it's my birthday!" He cracks me up. You can see in these pics he doesn't make things easy for me, every pic I would take he would try to make an ugly face. But that's why I love him! He has the best sense of humor! I love him so much and want to thank him for being a great hubby.I love you Chris!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

Me and 5 of my best friends had a girls reunion and went to San Francisco over the holdiday weekend! It was the funnest trip I've been on! We got there Friday at about 1am and stayed up talking until 4. The next morning we walked forever up and down these steep streets to find a bike shop- let me tell you I was dumb to wear flip flops my feet were torn up. We all rented bikes and rode down the coast and across the Golden Gate Bridge. This was an adventure let me tell you. Allie and Nicole got a Tadum double bike, it was hilarious, they almost died trying to ride it. We had to push our selves to finish to the end, We made it up huge hills and once we crossed the bridge it took us to an island. The whole bike ride had to be a good 10 miles. And after a hour + walk. I was proud I did it! The next day we went to Fisherman's Warf and saw sea lions, danced with a jamacian, and had a crazy guy put a Iguana on Allison. San Fran is crazy if I didn't mention that- There are tons of wierd bums everwhere. Anyways we went to Ghiradelli and had yummy ice cream sundaes too. The rest of the time we went shopping and had the best girl talks ever! It was a blast!

Racoon Eyes

So yesterday I thought hey I have some free time so I would love to work on my tan. I went and laid out with my friend a couple weeks ago for an hour and I got a little burnt, but nothing bad. I haven't been in the sun forever so I expected it. So Yesterday I went in my backyard and laid out and greased up with some oil. Thinking no big deal, I did it a couple weeks ago. So I didn't put any sunscreen on my face either since I was fine last time. Well I was wrong! An hour later I came in, took off my sunglasses, and about died! My face was bright red and I have a huge tan line from my sunglasses. Lets just say I look like an idiot! I would put up a pic but I'm pretty embarrassed, my whole family has already had a good laugh at me so I thought I would spare myself from more embarrassment, even though it's pretty funny. Chris is getting the biggest kick out of it. He kept saying last night do you want to go somewhere dark for dinner so people don't have to see your face or we can get a bag to put over your head. He thinks he's so funny! Well the thing that sux is The company I work for is requiring us to go get individual pictures done with a photographer on Wednesday. So my luck I look ridiculous now so I'm really hoping it will fade by then so I don't look like a retard on our website. So my advice to everyone is wear sunscreen and don't tan with sunglasses!
