6 or So Months: The Hightlights!! (May/June)

It takes a while to get my thoughts together on a New Year's Resolution. I usually end up with about 3 resolutions by Jan 1. Months go by, okay fine!...Days go by and at least 2 of them are LOST and I just try to hold at least 1 to fruition. This year, I think that one is going to be BLOGGING MORE. Promise!

In the meantime, everyone is going to have to just enjoy my sporadic posts. Have I mentioned how much we work!? Alex put in, on average, 14 hour days this summer and I was behind that total with an EASY 12 hour day on average. But week nights spent relaxing, making dinner, and sitting down to a nice blog post.....YEAH, that just didn't happen. But things are beginning to come together on the project. We are starting to have more free time during the week. And as you will see in the next couple of posts....We DID fit in the fun stuff on the weekends and plan to continue!

We work a lot, have done a lot, and it has been a great summer!!!

Have fun because I'm about to update you on the last....6 months or so!!! HOLD ON TIGHT because we are going to be flying fast!

In May we went Deep Sea Fishing on a boat named The Ocean Odyssey. We drove down to San Diego and boarded the boat headed for the shores of Mexico!!!

The weekend before, the crew and fishermen brought in 14 YellowTail Tuna!!! We were stoked. Check out our massive haul of FISH!!!
 

Okay....It wasn't our day for BIG FISH. Maybe next time. But we had one GREAT day on the ocean. The Mexican Police boarded the boat to check our papers. I was JUST about to get an AWESOME picture of this but the Captain informed me that the Mexican police don't take too well to eager tourists looking to get arrested. "OK! Point taken!"

The other eventful part of the day was watching everyone around us drop like flies!! Puker-Mc-Pukersons! EVERYONE seemed to get sea sick!....NOT US!!! We fished all day!

We had such a great day!

In June we spent the day in Temecula. SoCal's Wine Country. It was beautiful! We had plans to visit 3 or 4 wineries. First one we got to, we loved so much, we stayed for a Bottle! :)


It was a great day with wine, cheese, crackers and sunshine. We did make it to one more winery where I proceeded to sign up for a Wine Club. The next day I realized that it was $80/month. CANCELLED. Whoops. Next time we visit Temecula, Alex will be in charge of the credit card! haha

Later that month, actually on my Birthday weekend, our friend Leah came to visit!
Leah has been my PARTY PARTNER since college and when she heard we were living in Cali, I knew she would make the trip out. Her and I get together and its like no time has passed since we last saw each other!
She's a great friend and I'm SOOO SOOO glad she visited!! We had a great weekend!

.....more on the next post. Hopefully sooner than later.
