spring flowers

the other day we took snoop dog for a walk. we went into the contruction area near our house and walked into this cute little grassy flower patch area. i love the way the flowers grew. so random. but so cool.





i wish those flowers grew in my backyard on the grass. well maybe they are there but i can't see them because my grass is 4 feet high. who knows. i was going to pick some to bring home and put in a vase but we saw a huge bee hive in the tree above. then i just noticed bees everywhere. the last thing i wanted was to get attacked by bees.

that's the bee in the flower...

just call me rudolph...

"just call me rudolph" is what i'm going to tell everybody. two days ago i started to feel a little pain on the top of my nose.
i looked in the mirror when i had the chance.
there wasn't any visible bump...
but there was redness.
i knew exactly what it meant when i saw it.
pain upon touching and redness was a big sign.
it was going to be a huge one.
i tried to prevent it from bursting out by putting whatever ointment i have on the area.
that didn't work.
because now i can see it poking out.
its redder than ever.
and it'll soon be visible from 50 feet away.
and all i keep wondering is "why the nose." why not attack my forehead or cheek again. the nose is worst.
because now everybody can call me rudolph. and that's what i'll be until it goes away.

marley and me

oh how i love this movie. i think i cried like i cried watching the notebook. and i cried pretty hard watching the notebook. what can i say. i get really sensitive about dogs. such a doggy lover. by the end of the movie i was squeezing snoopy and telling him that he will never leave me EVER. gotta read the book now.

recycling cans to buy frozen yogurt

today, we had big plans. the big plan was to clean out the backyard by getting rid of all the aluminum cans, plastic and glass bottles that we've been recyclying since we moved in. our plan was to use the money we got from the recyclying company to buy some frozen yogurt. that we did. we got $7.45. cha-ching!
the recyclying place made us feel dirty so we had to come home and shower before we headed out to get our frozen yogurt. both david and i heard many people in sacramento raving about this place called the big spoon. we had to try it. now we feel like we missed out on it all this time we've been living in sacramento. man oh man. it's just a fun place to be. it's totally self serving. you can pile as much yogurt on your cup and mix it with as many flavors as you want because you're paying for the weight of your cup, not the size of cup you pick. after that, they have a large wall full of toppings! lots of syrup, whip cream, and plenty of candy toppings! we kept thinking while we were there, "oh how fun it would be if we were there as a kid." i'm taking my nephew and neices there the next time they come up!

St. Patrick's Day

this year happened to be the first year d and i actually celebrated st. patty's day. joylyn invited us over for dinner and to hang out. she made us corned beef with cabbage, carrots, and potatoes. it was our first time eating it and it was yummy!! bad picture on my part...but i had to take a picture of the first corned beef i ever ate. haha



joylyn made a drink for me and it actually wasn't that bad. i was able hold off on taking my chaser right away. that's a good sign. we just spent the night talking, playing cards, and drinking. i don't think d enjoyed listening to us talk about work, ABA, and psychology stuff most of the night haha. but overall, it was fun. i can't believe i stayed out until 2 am on a work night to celebrate st. patties day! man.


RUN out of alcohol? why not walk to the convenient store across the street and leave the house door unlock as you do?

Last weekend

I had a fun weekend with some family last weekend. Jennie and family + Maui came up. These kids are awesome at playing those arcade games for tickets!!! Maui though...i don't know...i don't think those tickets are hers.
