Crazy Weekend!!!!!!!

Well, this past weekend was really crazy for us. We had way to much packed in but it was all really fun stuff. I'm just glad to say that this weekend and week we are just staying home and relaxing and not spending any money. Fun things take money too!

Friday night was my birthday. So, Josh took me out to a really cute Italian restraunt in DT La Jolla called Piatti. So good! We each had a glass of wine and then had some amazing food that we kept making the other try. Then we drove over to La Valencia hotel where my brother got married and they have a bar that over looks the ocean. We were just going to hang out and relax for a little while when a paino player showed up and played some of the best songs! We just sat and listened. Then we met up with my girl friend Vy and her husband for desert and coffee! Such a fun night.

Sat I spent preparing my house to host 40 people for a suprise Engagement Party for Devin and Geoff. Devin lived with us for a year and we have become very close. Goeff is on staff at our church and an amazing guy. He has become like family too since he was over alot when Devin lived with us. So, it was not a thought in my mind to host this party for them. They had gotten engaged earlier in the day in Temecula at a winery. I called her and we were screaming on the phone about it and I convinced her to stop by our house to show me her ring. Well, she had no idea that we had her whole family drive down from Anaheim and he closed friends. She was so suprised and was bawling her eyes out. I was so happy to host and we had a great time. As you can see in these pictures Austin was over having people around. He was ready for bed.

Sunday I did not go to church. The good pastor let me stay home. I had a ton of cleaning up to do. So, I did all that. I had to hand wash 40 champagne glasses and wine glasses so I was very busy. Then I went to my girlfriend Tara's birthday. We had a blast. Then I just crashed the rest of the afternoon and rented a movie Sunday night! It was much needed.

Monday night we celebrated my birthday at a place called Wine Steals. It's a very cool wine bar but has a coffee house type setting with large sofas and chairs to just sit around. I had about 25 friends come and celebrate with me. It was cork free night for any bottle of wine and $2 slices so we couldn't beat that. I had a blast! I got to spend time with everyone and then open gifts! I added a few pictures from this. It was a great time and I am ready for this next year. 28 is going to be a big year for me in so many ways! This week I'll be resting and recovering from what you can clearly see as a crazy weekend!

All these pictures were taken from my new camera that I got for my birthday from my parents Josh and The Hotsenpillers. Thank you!
