Just Another Manic Monday...

I think Mondays should just be a part of the weekend.  Work four days, then get three days off, I don't think that's unreasonable!
This weekend flew by, but it was a lot of fun!  I make sure to dedicate one of my weekend days to spending time with my family every week.  This week, Saturday was family day.  We ate lunch at Wahoo's and stopped by an adoption event the German Sheperd Rescue of Orange County was putting on.  Seeing all of those sweet dogs and puppies just made me want to start an animal rescue of my own even more.  And when I have the money to do so, I'm definitely starting it!
After drooling over all of the cute doggies and wanting to adopt them all, we purchased some baked goods from their bake sale and headed over to Kohl's to do some shopping.  I immediately went to the baby section and started shopping for Chanelle's little bun in the oven.  I LOVE looking at baby clothes, it's so much fun!  When I have my own kids, they're going to be the most stylish kids around, you can count on that! 
After picking out a few cute outfits for little Kylei and getting hit on by an older guy walking around with his teenage son while doing so (creepy, right?), my parents and I headed back to their place where we just hung out for the rest of the night and spent time together.  I love my days with my family. :)

Sunday started out with me getting up at 11am and cleaning the kitchen.  I'm slowly, but surely, cleaning my entire apartment.  I'm thinking tonight I might clean my bathroom...or just lay on my couch with Mellow while watching my box set of Friends, who knows! :P
Will's work was hosting a bonfire at North Beach in San Clemente in the evening, so I started getting ready for that after I cleaned the kitchen and ate some breakfast.  Mellow was being a little cuddlebug all day, which of course made it difficult for me to get anything done in a timely manner.  But, I managed to resist his unfailing cuteness long enough to throw my makeup on and do my hair in time for us to leave.
Will, his brother Seth and I all drove down to the beach together.  It was gorgeous down there and wasn't hot at all.  There was a really nice breeze and every time it blew, you could smell the salt water.  I love that!  There was tons of pizza and other food there.  Of course I filled up on pizza before any of the other food arrived and was so stuffed that I turned down s'mores and chocolate cake.  I know, a chocoholic turning down s'mores AND chocolate cake, crazy right?! 
The sunset was absolutely beautiful.  I haven't seen a beach sunset in years, so that was awesome.
 When I got home from the beach, Mellow was still being a little cuddlebug, so it of course took me forever to gather my stuff and mosey on over to Will's for the night.  I mean, come on, who could resist this sweet lovebug?!
Mellow snuggling with me last night. :)

I hope everyone has had a quick and painless Monday!

  1. Hey, creep old dudes need love, too :D:D:D:D:D:D

    I used to spend hours at the beach teaching people how to scuba dive. We had cookouts, bonfires and the like. I spent a lot of time with Seth at Laguna Beach ;)
