Our first guest!

This weekend was a lot of fun and left me very tired. Friday night our neighbors Brittany and Matt hang out and we went out to eat at a new place, Sonny’s. It was wonderful and I ended up with a lot of marinara sauce on my clothes. Then they hung out at our apartment until about 1AM, which is pretty wild for me. At about midnight I started making salsa for the next day. Within about 10 min. of them leaving John was asleep on the couch. I considered waking him to come to bed but usually he won’t get up and the bed is so much quieter with him snoring on the couch. Don’t worry I leave the bedroom door open so that he has easy access if he decides he wants to come to bed. Since I got nothing done Fri. after work I got an early start Sat. and made a trip to the grocery store and bagel shack for breakfast, it didn’t disappoint. Kristy arrived on time from the airport and since UK was playing John didn’t make the trip to the airport with me. Kristy and I met Matt and Aimee, my former roommates and Kristy’s friend from Phoenix for lunch at the Rooftop in Laguna beach. Aimee had taken John and I there before and it was just as good this time. Afterwards I sent Kristy up to LA with Aimee to see a friend’s new baby and I took Gigi, Aimee’s dog, home with so John could see her. John and I spent a little time outdoors and then I did some cooking. Kristy, Aimee, and Matt came over and we grilled out, when did get done eating until close to 9. We were all tired even though Kristy was the only one with a real excuse. Sun. I thought I actually slept in until 7:15 which is good for me but then I realized the cable box and already changed for daylight savings time so I really didn’t sleep in at all.
Sunday we got up and had brunch on the pier over the water and the omelets and muffins were amazing. We followed up a great brunch with a pedicure, John skipped out so he could watch another UK game. We came home to hear John yelling at the game. We packed up and got out of there as fast as we could. Kristy, Aimee, and I spent the day at the beach where I proceeded to get very sunburned. Don’t worry I learned my lesson. After we got cleaned up it was off to dinner, as you can see there was a lot of eating in a short period of time. Aimee got Kristy to the airport and safely back home the next day.
On Sunday while we were at the beach John bought a surfboard from Craigslist. Since he didn’t have a wetsuit he had to wait to use it. Monday we rode our bikes several miles to a surf job and John managed to work his way in to a suit, not before getting hot and tired. Now we had a the required equipment. I am not a very strong bike rider and I had a full basket from all our merchandise so at one point I crashed in to someones yard where 3 men and a dog happened to be landscaping, it was embarrassing but more funny. They had only managed to plant one small shrub which my bike got hung up on and I ran over 2 times in the process of getting unstuck.
Tuesday was John’s first big day hitting the waves. Since it has been in the 80s here the past couple days it was a good chance to try it out. I witnessed him stand up a few times, what a natural. I will get some pictures soon. It was cool seeing him watching the sunset in the ocean on his surfboard. I think we are going to like it here.
