Back from Cali

I am officially back from California ... sigh. I miss it already. For me, California = freedom. Not that I'm not free to do whatever the heck I want here .. but still, I guess it's the memories and maybe just knowing where everything is. Even though I got lost .. twice. I can't wait to be back out there.

~!~

We're planning a mini-vacation to Orange County later this month - hubby work related - but I'm tagging along. If anyone has sightseeing tips, please feel free to share. I want to experience life in the OC =)

I love doing business with great people. It's great when people you work with realize the benefits and value of doing business with you and don't feel the need to bargain at every moment. Makes me happy that I'm going to bring new business their way.

My niece was thrilled to have me back. She was calling up the hubby everyday and asking when he was going to come over so they could pick me up. I've never been hugged so tight by a child as when she saw me at the airport. Almost makes me want children.

My mom passed out my flyers at her kitty party. I thought that was hilarious and so cute. I hope the aunties enjoy reading wedding planning tips =)

I spent the entire week shopping. I went shopping 3 times in one week! That's absolutely insane for someone like me who gets fed up and bored with shopping very easily. My suitcase was overflowing and barely closed at the end of the trip. I still need to unpack and catch up on work. I guess it's nice having a sister who works at Macy's and lets me use her discount and a mom who pays for everything I buy =) I felt guilty at first, but I'm over that now hee hee.

I got these shoes in the gold color and I am completely in love with them!

Hubby and I went on a shopping spree at target last night. We just went to get rods for the closet (I'm taking out the doors and putting in the pretty curtains). We found the rod for the window but they didn't have the larger sized one. So it took us forever to track that down and I still need to go to another Target to get it. We also finally found lamps for our room - we've been looking for a year and found them for only $15 each! It's not exactly what we had envisioned but it's still very cute and matches the room well.

I've never loved target so much. Also got some shelve/ledge things for decoration. When all of this stuff will go "live" in our room, I have no idea. I think it's huge that we lazy people actually went and bought all of this.
