Sad day for the peacock....

So, I just talked to the people at Oriental Trading Company since my costume has yet to come. She said she was reporting it as lost and crediting my money back! That means no costume! Unless it comes tomorrow and then I think it would be free...? So now I have to find something else by tomorrow! Ah!

Happy Birthday Harley!

Today is Harley's 6th birthday! So, of course we had to have a party!! I made a sunflower cake and his friend's Buddy and Beth helped us celebrate. lol. He got some treats and a new stuffed Hippo. The dogs LOVED the cake! It was a good day. =)

Girls' Weekend

This past weekend was our girls' weekend. Lindsey and I went to Ali's house in San Leandro and the we went out in San Francisco on Saturday night. We had so much fun! We had a few drinks and some dinner at Ali's and then got ready, (which could have been disastrous since we started drinking before doing our makeup!) Then we RAN to BART and rode into the city. We went to a few bars Ali had scoped out, and then Lindsey and I picked one. lol. Well, it wasn't until we were in the bathroom and Lindsey and I went into the same stall and the whole bathroom started cheering, that we realized we were in a lesbian bar! whoops! Well, that will make for a good story when we're old. lol. Then Sunday I went to a Raider's game with Ben and his family. It was really fun. There would be more pictures but my camera died. Maybe I can scan Ben's pictures when he gets them developed.

Comments

Thanks, Ali. I changed it so anyone can make comments now. =)

Halloween!

So, I decided what I'm going to be for Halloween.........a Peacock! Here's a picture of my costume! I'm debating whether or not I should add real peacock feathers to the tail. Hope it comes in time for Halloween! =)

Weekend

So, this has been a really great weekend. My mom came up to visit me in Chico, and we just had a great time. Saturday we went to the Lavender Festival in Biggs, and even though we almost missed it, we made it just in time to not have to pay for our tickets! lol. They had some beautiful antiques, and we bought a lavender sachet and I got some beautiful gold and amethyst earrings and a cute little knob for my dresser. Then we walked through the fields of lavender. It was so beautiful! Then we headed back into town to do a little shopping at the sidewalk sale, and we realized that a bunch of the parking meters up and down the streets were covered, and you couldn't park there, so we found a street without those and parked. Well, on our way into town, I saw a sign that they were having the Under the Harvest Moon Light Parade! So we staked out a spot on the curb and got some peppermint hot chocolate from Starbucks and watched the parade! It was great! Then today we went back to one of the antique stores downtown and did a little shopping. Such a fun weekend! And next weekend is Ali, Lindsey and my girls weekend at Ali's house! Can't wait! I'll post some pictures soon! =)
