Tuesday.

Lame.

I apologize for my extreme lack of posts lately.

Between having a super busy weekend and just not feeling up to par....I kinda slipped on my blogging.

I didn't take as many pictures as I hoped I would have at all of the weekends festivities but I still had a great time despite being a bit under the weather.

I promise to post some pics soon...but right now there is a ginger ale calling my name!

UGH.

Wednesday/Friday !!

It's my Friday ya'll and I couldn't be happier.  I decided to use of the rest of my vacation time and have myself an e-x-t-e-n-d-e-d Memorial Day weekend.  While I'm looking forward to getting some much needed rest, this weekend is sure to be another whirlwind of social-butterfly-ness for Mr. M & I.

We have a wedding to attend Friday night, a birthday party on Saturday AND a belated birthday dinner on Sunday. 

That basically means dressing up, dancing, and eating like its going out of style!! lol

I can't wait to get the festivities started...

I'll be sure to take plenty of pictures!!

What's on your agenda for the weekend??

30 Day Challenge!!!

LOL

Pretty sure I can handle this !!

WedsDate.

So my awesome husband surprised me yesterday with a mid-week date night!!

I had been totally craving guacamole lately, so he of course chose Mexican for the evening! We headed to a small place called Zocalo.  We had been there once before and it was definitely worth going back!

Its such a cute place with intimate dining rooms and even an outside seating area. But since it was a bit humid, we decided to sit inside and soak up some free AC!! lol

We started with the guacamole. Seriously, they have the BEST gauc!!

I could have eaten two bowls all by myself, but we settled for just one AND I shared!!

For dinner, I chose the Carne Asada tacos.

More guac, fresh pico de gallo, sour cream, red rice, re-fried beans, and hot tortillas.

Needless to say...the plate was clean when we left!

After dinner, we headed to the movies. 

We chose a 7pm show this time to ensure neither of us would get too sleepy and miss it! We finally saw "Think Like A Man" and it was hilarious.  It was also nice that there were only 7 of us in the entire theater!! lol

It was a great date!

Picture My Life.

BAM  - First semester of grad school !

What an AWESOME reminder and exactly what I needed to see!

Yum...to the 10th power!!!!

Pickle!

Desktop goodies-champagne bubbles

Steam? Pollution? Mr. M thinks a nasty combination of the two...

Kiyah (my great-niece)



EPIC. WEEKEND.

Although its Monday (and that kinda sucks) I'm still walking around with my weekend "high".  Mr. M & I had A LOT ☺to celebrate this weekend!! Being the social butterflies that we are, we love to cram as much happiness into as little time as we can...hence THE WEEKEND!!

MAY 12th 2012

Today we celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary! 

5 WHOLE YEARS!!!

 I still can't believe that it's been that long. 

It seems like just yesterday that I was a nervous wreck...standing at the alter!

We have officially crossed over to the "old-married" couple phase of our life and I couldn't be happier. We were just talking about how we've "lived" and done in the last 5 years...I cant wait to see what the next 5, 20, 50 years holds for us! I am so blessed to have such an amazing and loving husband.

We kept our celebration "light" but it was filled with love, well wishes from family & friends, flowers

and of course...filet! lol

MAY 13th 2012

Besides being Mother's Day

(love you mom)

(this is a cake by the way! My sister ordered it for my mom...it was as good as it was beautiful!!!!)

It was also Mr. M's 31st birthday!!

(this is from last year's surprise 30th B-day party---uuummm yes, I'm an awesome wife like that!!)

I told you we like to do it way big...I can't believe that he is getting soooo old!!! He was a 'lil tenderoni when I met him!!lol

It was a nice day spent with family...and we had a huge dinner at the chinese buffet.  Nothing too major, but it was still a great time and we plan on going away for an extended weekend later this year, to officially celebrate his special day!

And no birthday is complete without cake ...

Happy Birthday Bear!

I love you soooooooooooooooo much!

He made a wish, blew out the candles, and then I went to sleep! It was the perfect ending to a perfect weekend and I couldn't have asked for more!
