Off the Grid?

Wow you guys, sorry for the disappearing act.  Honestly I don't know where the time has gone.  Is everybody saying that right now?  This whole super late thanksgiving thing really threw me off this year.  And then all of a sudden it's the middle of December.  What the what?!

That being said this is going to be a bullet pointy type update because I have a lot of time to cover and its still busy time (incase you hadn't noticed...)

-Thanksgiving

Was the bomb diggity.  We drove down to san diego to be with the parents and the brother.  And it was sunny and delicious and way too fast.  It was very relaxing and really nice to do nothing except be together and enjoy each other's company. And stuff our bocas full of thanksgiving food (and mexican food)  72hr thanksgiving babyyyeee

 So much yums and a night at the Welk Resort

So much Gorgeous!

-Time out from baby making

Sorry about the last whiny blog.  I was having a moment.  And now I'm taking a couple of months to enjoy the holidays and drink wine and not jack myself up on crazy meds. More developments to come in this area in the future (I hope)

-Macklemore and Ryan Lewis

As part of our (early) Christmas presents to each other we got tickets to a Macklemore and Ryan Lewis concert.  We spent the weekend in the City.  Saw the Christmas decorations in the store fronts, drank starbucks peppermint mochas, and went to one of. The. Best. Concerts. I've. Ever. Been. To. Period.  Can we talk about how much I love Macklemore?  It's a lot people.  The music was dynamic, the crowd was insane, the showmanship was off the charts.  There was fire and confetti and crazy dancing.  A-to-the mazing!

 Christmassy Thai food and some pretty city decorations

Macklemore is in there I swear!

-The start of Christmas palooza

My parents came up here this year to celebrate the holidays at mine and SP's house.  It's kind of a whirlwind this year though because one younger brother tore his acl and had surgery so it is a balance of holiday festivities and invalid taking care of.  That being said SP and I have looked at lights now 3 (count em) times (and it's only Dec 19th!)  So I think the Christmas cheer is alive and well (despite a small bout of the plague that I have now)

 These ones can possibly be seen from space?

-Brother in-law-Birthday!

We celebrated my brother in laws birthday with some delicious pizza and a gorgeously decorated cake a la SP.  I think she has a future what do you think?  (We might have also looked at Christmas lights this night…)

The Birthday Boy and his Very Special Cake...

A close up in case you needed to see the greatness more fully

The cute fam :)

And we got a new dog

We let him out I swear!

So that's what's been going on around these parts.  This weekend will be spent hanging out with family and helping tiny Tim (aka brother) crutch around and then its back to our house for Christmas Palooza 2013 at our house!

Blogger holiday craft exchange round up coming very very soon (for real!)

Merry Christmas my friends!  Much love and good wishes as we hurtle towards a new year (I feel pretty good about 2014...but that's another story for another time!)
