Take me out to the Ball game

 
My sister had been wanting to go to a Dodger game for awhile now, so I finally got us tickets and we went on Tuesday night. We actually made it a family night and took our dad.
Even though I live just a few miles from my dad, and I see him almost on a daily basis, sometimes I just crave some quality time with him.
Found this shirt at Marshall's for only $12
 
I am not a big hot dog fan, but I enjoy a Dodger dog every now and then.
 
It was a beautiful night, great weather and great company!

Memorial Day Fun


Hope everyone had a great Memorial Monday! We are so lucky to live in this country and I am so thankful for our service men and women.

I had the most relaxing day and loved every minute of it.

Began with a pedicure at a new spot. Was great and will def go back!

Enjoyed lunch with hubs and his pop, then headed to the pool to get my tan on!
Spent the next 4+ hours hanging with our best friends, joking around, and eating great food. 
The sun and fun totally wore me out!
Home to snuggle my boo!

Well that is all! Tonight, the King's better win!! I will be rockin' my locket!!

How to have a fun night with your Man


Whether you are a sports fan or not, attending a sporting night is so fun!
I love going to King's games with my husband, we always have the best time!!

Dinner, drinks, cotton candy, eye candy, what more could you want??

I had to work last night but I still painted my nails in spirit of the game. Sadly they lost.

I encourage you to plan a night out! I can't wait til my next game night with the hubs!

B.r.e.a.k.


Last week I worked 7 days in a row. Talk about burnt out and over it!
I love my job. I love what I do. But I seriously need a vacation.
Too bad my full 2 weeks off isn't until July...

We also have our one year anniversary coming up in September and I have two weeks off then, we are trying to decide on where to go. I vote Mexico. Husband isn't too fond of that place, so I need good, safe stories to share! And hotel recommendations!

Until then..

I will count down until we go to Vegas at the end of June.

Pickles...


This is very hard for me to write but I want to get it off my heart.
About 3 weeks ago, I was at work and got onto Petfinder.com. Bad idea. I am the biggest dog lover and my heart broke. Then I found the cutest chihuahua. It's like screaming at me thru the picture to come and get him.
Panic.
Are we ready for another dog? What about Frappy? My dad is going to kill me...
I race after work to see him. I hold him for about 30 minutes, can't pull the trigger. So unsure if I am making the right decision. I decide to head home to sleep on it and talk to the husband.
Long story short, as it makes me too sad to think about.. we brought the little guy home, he was obviously super cute, super crazy (he was a puppy) and super happy to be with us.

But for some reason, I just cried the whole day. I felt like I was taking away from Frap. Frap is my little senior citizen, he is 9 now. We love our quiet afternoons napping and chilling out. It just didnt feel right. We thought it was best to take him back that night rather then let him stay the night and get more comfortable and then break his pup heart. I cried the entire way there. Hot mess.
I was sad for about a week. Still sad thinking about it all.
I know I made the right decision. I want to love on my little Frap for as long as I get.

I stalked the adoption center on facebook and saw last week that he was adopted and posted a cute picture of him cuddled up. His original name was Pipsqueak, we were going to name him Pickles, and his new name is Jambi..

Wishing that little guy only the best

Why I chose to Sponser...


I have been blogging for a few years now, loving it more than ever. I feel like I am part of a special club by communicating with you thru your blogs and emails! I try to blog a few times a week, and I am always snapping pictures to add in!
I was totally turned off by the 1000 group giveaways, the sponsor posts and all of that. But I genuinely enjoy following Kaitlyn at Wifessionals and wanted to sponsor thru her!

She has created a fun give away, not where you have to follow a million people, but you follow based on the blogs you feel drawn/connected to.

I encourage you to skip on over there!

A bump on the Head


Well this weekend didn't quite go as planned.

I had been fighting a migraine since last Wednesday, it returned Thursday at work. Well we were battling some crazy fires here in So Cal, and being a dispatcher, it wasn't the best time for being sick. I wore sunglasses for 6 hours... then decided enough was enough and headed home.

Come Saturday, I work up with yet again, more pain in my head/eyes. I thought maybe a quick trip to Urgent Care was necessary. My husband sweetly reminded me that he had to be home by 12:30...

The Dr. working had no idea what my problem was. Migraine? Eye strain? I was just about to say forget it when she said were gonna give you a shot.
HOLD. THE. PHONE
No.
I don't do shots.
or 
Needles.
She pretty much responded that I didn't have a choice...

As I cursed under my breath, I got a shot in my hip with immediate pain in my right cheek.
They disappeared. I immediately knew I was going to faint, crawled to the door, yelled out, and woke up having NO idea where I was. Sweet.
Put me in a chair, where I just faint again. 

My husband looked pissed. It's 1:30. He is about to leave my ass there. 
I somehow convince them I am fine and cry myself to the car. Mind you my right leg isn't really working.
I left there feeling 100 times worse.
Still having eye pain 30 hours later...
My cheek still hurts. I bit my tongue mid faint. Nice welt on my head.

The 1st of May


Hola peeps!
I spent the last 3 days off and loved every minute. I was "so" busy that I didn't even nap either week day! That is seriously a miracle in my book. 
My favorite part of days off is sleeping in with Frap!

We also noticed some of our grass wasn't as green as the rest, so off to Lowe's we went to buy grass food. I let the husband handle distributing it.

Watched the King's lose horribly last night. We both went to bed mad. Since when did I care so much??

Stay tuned for a fun give away coming up soon!
