Memorial Weekend

Our Memorial weekend was the perfect mix of family time, friend time, productive time, and down time. 
Friday night was just me and the girls because Bobby was still on his way back from Florida (his last trip as a Cobra PUMA employee!!). We had a great time and rocked out to Wagon Wheel after dinner.
Saturday took us up to Orange County to help celebrate Gianna's 2nd Birthday. Gianna is Bobby's cousin's granddaughter. We got to see lots of family from Bobby's side and were even surprised with some Christmas gifts! J made out like a bandit and got a drum set AND a keyboard. I'm not in the market for some noise cancelling headphones ;o)
On Sunday, after enjoying our coffee and morning cartoons with the girls, I was able to spend some time outside getting some sun and letting J play her heart out. I got a little more crispy than I had intended, but I'll chalk it up to my first (and only) burn of the summer! I've got my base color now, right? 
B joined us when she woke up from her nap and Dada was busy working away on finishing up our bathroom. These girls bring so much joy to my laugh and seeing how happy B gets and how much she laughs when J laughs is just amazing. I pray every day that their relationship grows strong and they stay close sisters as they get older. 
Sunday ended with a yummy dinner of BBQ chicken skewers, a veggie salad, and quinoa/brown rice mixture.And of course, a glass of Chardonnay =o)
 
Monday brought about some light shopping for new towels for our bathroom and after the girls' naps we headed over to their nanny's house for some amazing homemade Mexican food. Good lawd that woman can cook! We started off with tacos de adobado (YUM!) and were then given a plate of cheese, chicken, and potato enchiladas with rice and beans. The meal was perfectly ended with Bobby's Chocolate Eclair and I'm pretty sure I should have walked home after all of that!
It's always such a bummer to have fun plans on Monday holidays knowing that you have to go back to work the next day, but we enjoyed ourselves regardless. 
Now, I'm just looking forward to another 4 day work week next week (taking June 7th off to kick off my 30th Birthday a little early!)
