Oh California

How I long for you.

I can't wait to walk along your beach tomorrow.

I can't wait to soak up the UV rays you provide.

I can't wait to get my beach cruiser from May and Patrick at the bike shop

And take the ferry across to Balboa Island.

And take a bite into the most delicious thing in the world:
a Balboa Bar.

California here we come!

Nerd Fest

Last night Erik and I went and saw the midnight showing of Harry Potter! We jumped into the world of "lets go to the movie theater hours before it starts just so we can get a good seat". It actually really paid off. We played cards with friends while waiting in line, and Erik and Jesse bought beach balls to toss around the theater (ya I know, my husband is that guy at the movies--but I love it). We decided to embrace our inner witch and wizard. Erik couldn't help but to wear his Gryffindor tie, and I drew a lightning bolt on his forehead (And he's such a fan he's never even read a Harry Potter book!). Thank goodness no one dressed up like Voldemort this time, I think that gave people quite a scare when they saw him walking out of the bathroom. There were people running around everywhere screaming "HE'S BACK!" But we did see this cool wizard:

And this adorable Hagrid:

In my opinion: best Harry Potter movie yet. It did a really good job at explaining all of the hard stuff in the book, and it was just really good. And I secretely have a crush on Ron Weasley and have since movie one. Something about the red hair and freckles just really does it for me, but don't tell Erik.

I am a nerd

Because I'm counting down the hours...

Buddy "Bud" Dink

My husband just told me I look like this:

Anyone recognize him from the Nickelodeon show "Doug"?

Sometimes life gets the best of me, and that is what has been happening lately. You're probably wondering why you have been getting so many music updates. Well that is what happens when I don't have time to update the blog and so my wonderful husband does it for me.

I wish I could say we have been on some cool vacation, or doing something that would make a great story. But the truth is, we haven't. Our days have been filled with work and school, work and school (my work consists of working to find a job). Erik finished his online History of Rock and Roll class last week and got an A of course. If anyone were to get an A in that class it would have been him. I have been going to school, studying microbiology day in and day out, and attempting to land a job. The competition is tough. I am very happy to say I only have 2 weeks left of school and I am done!--for the summer at least. Erik says I have become a bit of a hypochondriac since I have been in that class (you would be too if you knew all of the diseases you could get just by putting something in your mouth.)

A few weekends ago we went to the drive-ins with some friends of ours Jesse and Michelle Woodbury. They have been married for almost 2 months and it has been great having married friends! We just threw a twin mattress into the back of our truck so we could be all comfy. It worked a lot better than what we expected.

Erik and Jesse have been best friends since they were 15 when Erik moved here to AZ from California.

A week from today we will be going to California and the beach for a wedding. Erik's friend Jordan Nielson is getting married and we are so excited! I can not wait to spend the weekend at the beach, we'll definitely post pics!
