Fun times with friends

We have a lot of fun having friends over for random dinners and game nights. Here are some pictures from our latest ones. Davey and Brian, our neighbors, came over and made us dinner one night. Another night we had breakfast for dinner with Davey and Brian and our friends Katie and Karrie. We always have a good time on nights like these.

Reception favors

When I was sick we received 3 huge boxes full of favors and other goodies for our reception. Ken was a super good sport and not only took care of the sickling but helped me to put the thank you tags on the favors and get other little wedding tasks accomplished while I was in bed. There are so many little details when it comes to a wedding, fun times!

Happy Birthday Garret!!

Garret (one of Ken's best friends) had a birthday on April 13th. His cute wife Jen planned a surprise brunch cruise on the Hornblower. It was so much fun hanging out with everyone on the boat and the food was super yummy! I got some cute shots of the birthday boy and others that were on the cruise. Kyle even came down for it so that was super great to be able to hang out with him for a couple of hours. Happy birthday Garret and good job Jen planning it, we had a ton of fun!

Happy Birthday Wolf!

Ken's dad Wolf had a birthday on April 20th so we had him over for lunch and to watch the Laker's game. It was fun watching Ken and Wolf play foosball and Ken even made some birthday brownies. All in all it was a fun afternoon. Happy Birthday Wolf!!

Fun Times Registering

Ken has been so helpful with all of the wedding planning and I am really grateful for that. He even went with me one day to register even though he is so not a fan of shopping. After about 2 hours we decided that registering is more my thing. The home decor is a reflection of the woman's taste as Ken told me so I have taken on that part alone, well not really alone because I have been doing it with friends and having tons of fun. Here's a picture after Melody and I after we registered at Crate & Barrel, I am pretty clueless in the kitchen and Mel is right there with me so we got a big laugh out of scanning things that I didn't even know existed before. Mel thought it was hilarious that I scanned an ice scoop, but hey, ice is cold. Brooke and I went another day and will be going again next week. I discovered registering is super fun, even trying to explain all the fun things I put on our list to Ken. It makes me really excited to set up a home and to even start cooking, gotta use out of all those fun gadgets!

Lunch break

I met Ken for lunch yesterday and since his lab is so close to the Birch Aquarium we decided to go there. We had fun watching the kelp bed diver presentation where sharks were all over one of the divers and walked around and looked at the different fish. It is fun to see the differences between there and SeaWorld. All in all it was a really fun lunch break before I had to come in to work.

Happy Birthday Max and Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!

I am really bad about keeping up with this, so I have a lot to back track on when I get the pictures uploaded, but I did want to send a shout out to my nephew Max. He turned one on April 27th which was also my parents 30th wedding anniversary!! I wasn't able to go to Modesto for Max's firefighter party, but the pictures from it were super cute so I wanted to post a few. Happy birthday Max! We love you and will come see you soon!

Happy Anniversary also to Mom and Dad! 30 years and still going strong! I hope Ken and I do as good as you two have over the years! We love you both!
