..sunday-monday..

Sunday morning Jesse and I got up bright and early to head to California Adventure! The last time we got engaged but this time I did not receive any diamonds..
We had a great day filled with fun rides, a great dinner, and some funny pictures! Enjoy!!
Jesse loves "A Bug's Life" 3-D..I hate it.


This guy and the guy in red play Stanford basketball, well they did. They are going pro next year. Jesse recognized them so we stalked them on California Screamin'. We ended up riding with them..they are 7 ft tall :) Remember the Lopez twins and that I saw them.


Another thing I hate, swinging gondolas on the ferris wheel


Jesse loves them! Ohh he is cute :)


Even though I hate the swinging gondolas, I love him.


The engagement spot!

Jesse had to work on Monday...lame. But what is not lame is that Geoff is back in SoCal!!! YAY!! He is going to be stationed at Twenty Nine Palms till September and then is heading off to Japan for 1-2 years :( We will enjoy him while he is here though!! We had a fiesta..I made some taco bake, dump cake, spanish rice, etc. It was a great time.
The boys played Halo...and this is what the girls view was until we convinced them to play Scattergories with us :)


Lots of beer was consumed and laughs were had..it was a great night!!

..random thoughts..

Yes, this is about 45 mins from my house..

Yes, it is true that there was a tornado down here. It touched down (well 3 did) and overturned a semi and some boxcars. The weather was soo weird. Last weekend it was about 102-105 and then today it poured rain, huge thunderstorms, and power knocked out all over town. Weird...

I was told to leave work at 2 today and not come in tomorrow. I was fired..just kidding. They are really slow and there was nothing to do. So I was told I could go home..how often does that happen?? I think Jesse wishes that would happen to him.

Tomorrow we are going to Downtown Disney to see my cousins for dessert. Then Saturday we are going to Mission Viejo to a bridal shower. Well, I am..Jesse is just my driver :) And on Sunday we are going to California Adventure! We haven't been to California Adventure since the day we got engaged. When we bought the Disneyland tickets we got the 2fer deal so we are able to go to Cali Adventure 2 times. We are pretty stoked about.

Next up is my fascination with polygamy. Yes, random..but I really want to know who does their hair??? I am not being rude..I am serious..it looks perfect and extremely complicated!

My thoughts are random and I am tired. Time for bed and maybe some Friends :) Who doesn't love Friends!!??

..weekend..

This weekend we went to Disneyland. What person doesn't love Disneyland? Well, I do but I don't like crowds..too much for me! BUT we had a great time! We need to buy passes..someday!!

We went with Jesse's mom and sisters. They came to visit from Thursday-Sunday morning. We stayed till it closed..Jesse's mom and sister didn't make it but Jesse, Alyssa, and I did! We rode Splash mountain 2 times in a row at the very end with Jesse in the front getting soaked..should be called Soaked Mountain. Here are some pictures from the day..ENJOY!

Parade of Dreams is awesome!

Our first of three times on Splash Mountain I made crazy faces each time..this might be the best one!

..flowers..


Today was my first day at Grand Florist. It was a long day of hard labor. I have to fulfill 100 hours and I think I might be able to complete them this week :) I may be kidding but this is one of their busiest weeks. I worked from 11-5 today with no breaks and was constantly working. I was making the flowers "pretty". Myself and a co-worker were stripping the leafs off the flowers, wiring them (if needed), cutting, and arranging them in a pot for easy access for the designers. It doesn't sound like much but after 6 hours of it, it gets tiring! BUT I still like it :)

..finals week..

A week where the APU campus is not super loud, library is full people studying, people wear pjs everywhere, and the coffee shops are packed. Yep, finals week.
I am proud to say that do get dressed before heading to all my finals, I am not a "wear your pjs to class" kind of gal. I am done with my hardest finals and I only need to get a 16% on this last final to pass the class (it's a pass/final, I am not a slacker). So I am not too worried. I will study tomorrow but not to the point of tears like Sunday night and Tuesday night.

Is it bad to inform your professor, before grades are given out, that their final was ridiculous? I did that today and he just smiled at me. All I said was "Grade with grace, please" He is insane with his tests and nobody should be expected to know all the stuff he has on the final..a good chunk wasn't even on the study guide (and don't get me started on study guides...gosh).

I am ready to be done with school for about 2 months before I start up summer math!
I start my internship on Monday and will be working 30 hours a week that the flower shop :) I am super excited! I get to decorate for weddings too :) Ohh I can't wait!!

Also, the mountains on fire in SoCal, I can watch burn on the way to class. Gotta love the warm weather this weekend! It was 104 one day..can't wait for the summer :( Let's hope I survive!! haha
