A few weekends ago Jeff, Bailey and I packed up and headed about an hour and 45 minutes North East to Lake Gregory up in the Big Bear area. Neither of us had ever been in the area, but Jeff's mom and Step-dad had rented a cabin for the week so we decided to join them for their last few days up there. We got there around 9 pm Friday night and stayed up playing cards with the whole fam (and grown ups were having some adult beverages). Saturday we all got up, had breakfast and then headed out to the lake. It's not really a lake in my definition, more like an oversized pond. But....there were lots of activities and it was nice and warm so the cool, refreshing water (okay, freezing cold, melted snow) felt good. They had waterslides which were a ton of fun, lots of watersports, swimming. We got lots of sun and had a lot of fun. I would definitely return!

Yeah....I Took a Nap

I had a headache so I took a much needed nap. Jeff and I went on a 3 mile run/walk, he found his paperwork and I'm updating the blog and about to start some laundry. I can cross a few things off my list. Here is a recap of a few things we've been up to lately:

San Diego weather has been fabulous lately! We've had lots of sunshine and warm temps. Bailey is our California dog and loves to lay out in the sun until she comes in panting and is warm to the touch. Just had to take this pic of her working on her tan.

Had a BBQ at the Colemans. Their sis and cousin were in town and we had awesome burgers and dogs q'd up by grillmaster Jamey. There was hot tubbing and Bartender Dan even came by. I learned that I need to practice for beer pong, although I did sink the winning shot once!

This is a pic of my little cousin Kiya. This is at the harbor in Santa Barbara and was taken while we were killing time during mom's surgery. Kiya played hookie and hung out with us for the day and made the day go by faster.

Tomorrow evening we head up to Lake Gregory for a weekend with Jeff's family. It's in the Big Bear area, neither of us have ever been. Looking forward to a little weekend get away. It's supposed to be hot this weekend, I'm ready to go on those water slides and work on my tan!

Back in Action

Finally got my new camera charger yesterday....battery is charged and ready for action! This weekend is BBQ time. Looking forward to burgers and dogs with the Coleman's tomorrow and enjoying perfect San Diego weather.

Last weekend was Father's Day weekend and we had John and Goldie in town. We had tons of fun and the Midway tour was awesome (but long) as was brunch. I wish I had pictures to share!

Looking forward to movie night at Stone with the peeps next week and then a long weekend for 4th of July. No big plans, but I'm sure sunshine and spirits will be involved. Maybe a little beach time too.

So Proud of Jeff

Jeff has worked for Titleist for 5 years now, but a year ago he moved to their putter division Scotty Cameron. For those of you in the golf world you need no explanation of who Scotty Cameron is, but for those of you who aren't in the know here is the lowdown. Basically a Scotty Cameron putter is THE putter to have. Even players who are sponsored by Callaway, Nike, etc...use Scotty's putters, including Tiger Woods. He has a following and his putters are collectors item as are his headcovers. His headcovers when released typically sell out in less than 10 minutes online and can be found on ebay soon after for a much higher price. There are blogs dedicated to his headcovers and putters! Several months ago Scotty had a staff meeting and asked for ideas for headcovers and Jeff threw out his idea. Scotty liked Jeff's idea, put it into production and well, Jeff's headcover is now the 2009 US Open Commemorative headcover! It went on sell this morning! Check it out:

Needless to say we are very excited! I'm so proud of Jeff and think he just might have a future in headcover design......

Fun, Fun, Fun!

Friday after work Jeff and I headed up to Redondo Beach to see his dad and Goldie. We always have a blast with these guys and our livers always get a good workout. True to form, Jeff's dad had cocktails waiting for us when we got there and we stayed up late catching up. The boys got up and went golfing the next morning, Goldie went to Yoga, and I slept in.....When Goldie got back she treated me to a massage at a local spa and then we met the boys for chips and beer at Calimex. John and Goldie live in a beautiful condo just minutes from the beach and walking distance to shops and restaurants galore. After a few beers we went back to the condo and got ready for dinner. Jeff and I owed the Boeder's a nice birthday dinner and had been waiting for months to find a weekend we could all get together. Typically we've taken them to Lawry's in Beverly Hills but we decided to stick closer to home and go to The Proud Bird near LAX. This place was like a museum with planes all over the grounds and hundreds of pictures on the walls. John and Goldie have a knack for finding restaurants full of character and this place did not disappoint. The food was great and we had fun watching the planes land at LAX. When we got home we debated walking across the street to Bogey's (dive bar), but instead opted to continue on with cocktails and have a Wii bowling tourney at home. Sunday I had an appointment with my BFF Rosa in Burbank to choose/buy a bridesmaid dress and the whole Boeder clan joined me. Roadtrip! Well, its only a 1/2 hour drive but in LA driving anywhere seems like a road trip. Dress was picked out and purchased (in only 45 minutes!), we grabbed lunch and went back to the RB area and caught The Hangover. Laughed so hard tears came down my face! We then headed back to the condo to watch the end of the Laker game. The worst part about visiting them is the leaving part. But, they are coming and staying with us next weekend for Fathers Day so we are looking forward to that! Sorry for lack of pictures, I left my camera charger in Vegas last month and just ordered a new one on ebay today. But definitely check out the Proud Bird site. I'm sure we'll be back :-)
