Happy Happy Friday!

I am so happy that its friday! Not only does Jon come home from being in Cali all week, but my mom arrives from Oregon tomorrow afternoon!

FaceTime with my lovie

Im so excited to have my mom here for mothers day and for an entire week! I haven't seen my mom since I was in Oregon last, which was in August.  I think thats the longest Ive gone without seeing my mom, so it'll be nice to have her home with me & my little sister for a week!

My momma and I !

Hope everyone has a great Mothers day weekend!

Happy Monday!!

Guess who has a job and 1st day is today??!!! This girl! Yay!!! I am now an Employment Coordinator for a big pool company.

I had my 1st interview with them 2 weeks ago, and then I had a 2nd interview on Friday.  The interview was at 10:00 am Friday morning, and at 12:20, I received a call from my new boss offering me the job :)  So it was a GREAT way to kick off my weekend!

Friday night, Jon and I went out to dinner to celebrate, and then got home and had a FaceTime hanging out with our good friends, Janet & Phil, back in Oregon.  I think we FaceTimed for about 2 hours, and it was a lot of fun.  I love FaceTime, it definitely feels like you are hanging out with your friends, even if they are far away. We are planning a Vegas vacation to go see Britney Spears new Vegas show that starts in December.  Janet and I are lucky enough to have husbands that are willing to go to the show with us :)  We are planning our trip sometime in February, and I am SO excited for it!

Saturday morning consisted of breakfast, mimosas and a surprise from the husband with some pretty flowers :)

Slaving away making breakfast! lol

Pretty colorful flowers from Mr Burns

My scruffy dog! We are finally getting her groomed Wednesday, thank goodness! 

And no Saturday is complete without some college football! So, Jon's friend, Curtis came over to watch the Duck game with us.

Miley fell asleep towards the end of the game.  The Ducks were dominating the other team, so there wasn't much action.

Sunday, Miley had a vet appointment to get her vaccines updated.  As you can see below, she was a very happy doggie, until the vet came into the room and started messing with her, lol.  But really, she did a good job, and is a very happy and healthy doggie, which makes me a happy dog mommy!  And she got to come home with a new super cute dog collar :)

After Miley's appointment, Jon and I did a lil shopping to get me ready for my 1st day of work.  Ever since I left my job in Oregon, which was 3 yrs ago, I have had very casual jobs and very laid back dress codes.  Now with this new job, I'm entering a very professional work environment, so it's time to vamp  up my work wardrobe.  Any kind of shopping is fun, so i don't have a problem with that!

Well, that was our weekend! Hope everyone has a great day and wish me luck on my 1st day of work!

What a weekend!

Im doing my weekend update post a day late because I was too busy have fun in the sun! :)  Can I just say that I LOVE living in California?  I feel like there is so much to do and not enough time for all of it! This weekend definitely kicked off a fun and adventure filled summer!

My company had a walk-a-thon fundraiser this weekend, so Jon and I joined in on the fun! It was a 5 mile walk in Morgan Hill on a trail right off the 101, and it was a lot of fun.  We decided to bring Miley along, and she was so cute :)  But she did do a not so cute thing on the way there.... She was riding in the front seat with me and decided to poop on the seat. Good thing she is little and her poops are tiny, but it was pretty funny.  Jon LOVES his car and Miley definitely disrespected his baby! lol  It was fun seeing my co-workers out of the office and im glad that Jon got the chance to meet my boss and co-workers.

Miley & I ready for the fun to start

Doing her best to keep up

My 2 loves

Such pretty views!

My cute lil family :)

Miley did her best, but she couldn't walk the whole 5 miles, so she was carried some of the time, more of a work out for me! 

Seriously love this picture, just look at her lil face!

Such a proper princess, crossing her legs while daddy carries her :)

After the walk-a-thon, we dropped Miley off at home, and we headed out for mimosas and some brunch.  Theres a "Bills Cafe" down the street from our place and they  have the best mimosas, I love going there, and they also have good breakfast, lol.

Later on saturday night we headed to the beach to meet up with some friends for a bonfire.  This was my 1st time doing something like this and it was really fun.... Until the cops showed up, they weren't very happy that one of the guys was setting off fireworks, so they shut our fun down :( Ol well, I'm sure well be going to many more of these! :)

Party in a cooler! :)

The beach seriously makes me so happy!

I want to try and skimboard some time, looks so much fun!

Jon's coworker, who is awesome and has included us into her circle of friends :)

Sunday was a bright and sunny day, so we headed to Campbell for some mexican food and margaritas, such a great way to end a fun weekend!

We also tried michelada's for the 1st time and they were pretty darn good! Jon wasn't really a fan, but i really liked it! Its like a bloody mary but with beer, and the rim has chili powder. 

And thats a wrap for our weekend! This coming weekend is going to be even more fun! We are heading to San Francisco for the Chipotle Cultivate Festival I am so excited for it! We will be spending the whole day out there and staying in a hotel by the bay, I cannot wait! 

Fridays Letters!

Dear Mr. Burns, I love you! And I am very excited to spend a sunny weekend with you! Thank you for being such a sweet husband to me.  Its been so much fun watching my home videos from my childhood, even though I'm not in them as much as you'd like, you get to see me and my childhood in a whole new light! Its pretty funny and embarrassing at the same time!

Dear Miley, I hope your ready to get the workout of your life tomorrow, because you'll be walking a 5K with daddy and I!  I just hope I don't have to end up carrying you to the finish line :) You'll be looking super cute no matter what though!

Dear Walk-a-thon, I am pretty excited that Jon and I are participating in your event for my office.  Such a fun way to spend a Saturday morning AND raise some money for our clients in need! Double win!

Dear Sirius radio, You completely made my morning! Not long ago, I discovered the best station EVER on you, Pop 2K, which only plays music from 2000-2010, which completely makes my drives to and from work pretty fun and exciting.  But this morning, as I'm cruising on the freeway the "Thong Song" by Sisqo came on, OMG! Dance party and memories in my car! That song definitely put a smile on my face this morning, Thank you!

Dear 30th birthday, OMG, you are only 21 short days away! I cannot believe that I will no longer be in my 20's in a few weeks, sad!!! But I am super excited for my birthday celebration and feel so lucky that I have friends from Oregon coming down to help celebrate with me! Just remember, 30 is just a number because I'm never going to grow up! Like Avril Lavigne says "HERES TO NEVER GROWING UP!"

Friday's Letters

Dear Husband, Your reaction last night after the mini earthquake we had was priceless.  You were so cute running around, googling it, and talking about it over and over again.  I couldn't help but just laugh :)

Dear Miley, You are just too sweet and cute! How did I get so lucky to have such a sweet lil doggie like you?!

Dear Meagan, I got my goodies yesterday!!! I loved them! Thank you so much! You are so sweet and am so happy to have been connected with you!

Dear Meat, We have been broken up now for about a month and it feel SO good! But I have to admit, I was very tempted yesterday at dinner, watching Jon enjoy those carnitas tacos at the taqueria made me a little jealous.  But I will continue to be strong and stay away from you, thank you!

Dear Mom, I'm sad that I cant spend Mothers day with you this year, BUT ill  be seeing you next weekend and will have presents! I cannot wait!

Dear Home ownership, I cannot wait to be in your club! Ive been dreaming about this for a long time now.  I hope our talking with the lender brings us good news and that our meeting with the real estate agent on Sunday will be even better!

Dear Husband, I am so excited for this summer and all of the fun adventures we are planning!

Friday's Letters

Dear Miley, We celebrated your 3rd birthday on Wednesday and had so much fun! You are so darn cute!!! Especially when you wore your party hat.  I know you were a little mad at me about it, but I just couldn't help it, I love dressing you up!

Dear Husband, When you texted me on Wednesday, telling me that you had a surprise for us, I was expecting something a little more exciting than a TV.  I think that surprise was just for you! :) and now we have more TV's than there is room for in our house.  I just don't get it....

Dear work, Things have been a little crazy this week! I wish things would slow down a bit, but I do love that I'm getting thrown into so many new situations and learning so much! That's what makes me love my job, there is something new everyday! Now if only doing New Employee Orientation was more exciting.....

Dear Hair appointment, I cannot wait to get my hair cut tomorrow, hopefully I have a better experience this time than the last time.  I hope the new person I'm seeing tomorrow can fix what the last person did.  I miss my hair girl in Oregon, she always did such an awesome job :(

Dear Spring, I love you and all of the sunshine and warm weather that you bring! I love driving home from work and enjoying the sunshine on my face!

Dear Weekend, I am so happy that you are finally here!!! Ive been waiting for you to show your pretty little face since Monday!

 

3....

Today is my lil princess 3rd birthday!  I cannot believe that it has already been 3 years since our baby girl was born.  She always brings a smile to my face and is such a mama's girl.  Our lil Burns family wouldnt be complete without her!

We will be celebrating her special day today with a new dress, some yummy birthday girl treats and maybe even a cake! Ill make sure to document all of the fun and make a special blog post all about it!

Here are a few pictures of her that make my heart happy!
