Couch potato!

I was a total couch potato today! Luckily Jacoby is a great couch potato companion! I love days where I can catch up on my DVR!

Jacoby looks HUGE in this picture! haha!

(P.S. This pic wasn't taken Sunday but it was totally appropriate for the day!)

I love weddings!

 
Weddings are so fun! Tom's friends Malik and Marissa got married at a country club in Los Gatos. It was a lot of fun! I loved that the ceremony was nice and short since it was outside! Marissa's dress was gorgeous and even the bridesmaids dresses were pretty!

The food was great and there was plenty of champagne, wine, and beer! The views outside were amazing. We met a lot of really nice people. Overall it was a great wedding!

A night in!

Had a Friday night in with Tom and Gio!

We had grand plans of making a fancy shrimp dinner but my mom made some Korean bibimbap burritos for us. So we had that instead!

3 girls + 3 bottles of wine = trouble!

Campbell Music in the Park is sooooo different from San Jose's music in the park! The main difference, and the best one, is that you can have open containers in the park! So people bring food and drinks. A lot of people go all out and bring tables and stemware! The crowd is definitely older but we still had an awesome time. Note to self: Make sure to get there early next time!

Afterwards we went to Sonoma Chicken Coop since there was also a live band. They were really good! But before that, we had to finish our bottle of wine. Hence the squatting and hiding behind an alleyway! haha!

What to wear!

Tom and I went shopping to find outfits to wear to Tom's friend's wedding this Saturday! But before the shopping could happen, we went to the Yardhouse to take advantage of their happy hour! And this time, we only had to wait about 10 min! Finally the hype is dying down!

Afterwards we roamed around Santana Row. Tom bought some really nice slacks at Brooks Brothers and I tried on a couple of dresses at Anthropologie but I couldn't find anything! Now I have 3 days to find something to wear! Yikes!

After we were done shopping we had to stop by Pinkberry! The highlight of the night! Yummy! They have this new salted caramel flavor that is very tasty!

My dog is so weird!

 
My dog has mastered the art of lounging! He sleeps in the weirdest positions! It looks so uncomfortable but he was laying/sleeping like that for over an hour! Haha! And this isn't the first time he's laid like that! Always entertaining with that little rascal!

Minor League Baseball!

Went to the SJ Giants game (Single A affiliate of the SF Giants) with Tom today! They occasionally have free ticket games so we couldn't pass up this opportunity. Plus there's a reason why I love going to SJ Giants games...the BBQ! Some of the best BBQ around! Yummy!

Also as a bonus, Barry Zito was pitching! I kind of felt sad seeing him at the single A level but also pretty cool to see him pitch!

What a freakin game!

Red Sox/Yankees games are always so stressful! I swear I have near heart attacks and rage filled rants every at bat! The game went into extra innings and as ESPN mentioned a billion times, it was a long game!

But it was all worth it because they WON tonight and are in first place again!! Squeeeeeeeeeeeee! ::dances::

Sun Filled Day!

Had a wonderful day full of sun! Went to a BBQ for a local congresswoman courtesy of Tom's parents. I also brought my mom and brother and got to introduce them to Tom's family, which was wonderful! Had great food grilled by the San Jose Fire Department!

In the evening, took my dad and brother to the San Jose Earthquakes game again courtesy of Tom!

I was super excited because it was Wondolowski bobblehead day! So now I have a bobblehead to match my Wondo shirt!

Now I can be a good fan! haha!

Happy International Beer Day!

Yes that's a real thing! haha! Celebrated by drinking a few beers and cooking a great dinner! Well Tom did most of the cooking but I was great moral support! Started off with artichokes which were yummy and then cooked a T-bone steak. I must say, I really love the meat quality at Whole Foods!

Music in the park!

 
Went to see Dredg in downtown San Jose for Music in the Park! Had a great time with everyone...as you can tell from the picture! haha! It was good to hang with some old friends that I don't normally see and it was fun to hang with Rick before he left to go back to Boston! (Thanks Rick for taking this lovely picture! haha!)

Aren't kids adorable!

Today I helped Tom babysit his 2 nephews, ages 6 and 4! We cooked a yummy bacon mac and cheese for dinner that the boys loved as well. Then I helped Owen, the 4 year old, make his family out of playdoh!

Looking at the pic, the playdoh family looks kind of creepy. Something out of a horror movie! haha! Crazy kid!

We also watched Mega Mind which I've already seen but still enjoyed it a lot! So did the boys!

P.S. Deja Vu for Ells!!!

Lifetime supply of cookies!


I'm not sure why anyone would ever need these many animal cookies but the container was just way too cute to pass up!

It'll probably take me months to eat all these cookies but it'll be worth it for the container! haha!


P.S. Ellsbury for MVP!!! <3

Healthy Cooking!

I made my own version of pasta primavera today! As you can see, I didn't have any green veggies so it's a little monotone! haha!

Either way, I think it turned out yummy and I hope Tom likes it too since this is going to be our lunch for tomorrow!
