Something New..

"I kept Runnin." -Forest Gump

Tomorrow I'm running the Wharf to Wharf which is a six mile run from Santa Cruz to Capitola.

From what I hear there are bands playing along the way, balloon arches at every mile and people just having a good time being healthy.

I do admit I am a fan of shows like Biggest Loser and the most recent Losing It with Jillian Michaels.

And I've realized how much of life and working out it like 90% mental.

It is a constant mind game.

Your body will do anything, it is just wrapping your mind around it.

I'm really excited to run the wharf to wharf this year with my friend Sandi and her sisters.

I've actually never ran 6 miles straight before so we'll see.

I'm sure this is something I should have trained a little more for.

I'll keep you posted on if we survive! :)

Happy Summer Everyone!!

Hope you all take some time this summer to put on your tennis shoes and go out for a walk or run! The flowers out and around are beautiful!

Job Hunting...

So Tuesday, I starting Job Hunting, and by the end of Tuesday day I had an interview set up for Wednesday.

So this morning at 10 am. I set off to an interview at a place called K's Quality Child Development Center.

Could it be anymore perfect having a "K" in it. :)

I'm really excited to think that I have a job and I am going back to talk details tomorrow at 1pm.

I'm SUPER excited and hope that this place is a perfect match for me.

Keep your fingers crossed!!

Lake Tulloch

The weekend following the 4th of July, my family and Ry's family were invited to La casa de Perricone. The weather was beautiful and the water was perfect too. We had fun on all the water toys and just hanging out. We definitely got good at floating!!

Sara and I floating on a noodle drinking a pina colada.

My favorite Men in my life. My dad, Ry and Ry's dad Joe.

A very fun toy! The huge trampoline with the blob off of it.

Nicki and I riding the tube. It was Nicki's first time and she had a blast.

What we all do best! Sit around the table talking eating and laughing.

Thank you Sandi and Steve for sharing your gorgeous house and fun toys with all of our family. Couldn't have been a more relaxing vacation. Thanks again! Love you!

Second Family wedding to come

This August, my cousin Alena is getting married. She is the second of the cousins to get married after my sister Jill (she is to the left of Jill). She is getting married in Napa and I'm sure it is going to be beautiful. We are in the wedding and being in the wedding we feel it is necessary to have a bachelorette party for her. Yup that means penis cake and all. Think we are just going to have a Spa day with all the girls on our side. Should be amazing and just what a bride to be needs. I'm so excited for the wedding and I always like and excuse to all get together and dance. And how can I forget we will get to meet Nicks new girlfriend. FUN!!!

Life update

I haven't blogged in forever. I've been on the go a lot. I've been working back at Jamba Juice and driving more often than I'd like to. I've been doing some really fun things and two weeks ago got back from a cruise vacation. I'm going to share some pictures from the latest things in my life.

This was the amazing view from our room on the cruise. It was so awesome to have a room with a balcony. Definitely the only was to go on a cruise. It was a great change from the last cruise I went on, our room was basically in the steerage, and you could shower go to the bathroom and brush your teeth at once. :) Above... thats Ry reading... Isn't he so cute?! :)

This picture was taken in Haiti, 500 feet up in the air. We went on a zip line that goes over the water and ends to the right of those red roofs in the distance. It was so fun and I will admit I got a little nervous

A relative visited from the Azores. He is my dads closest relative, I mean closest because he is related to him twice. On his dads side and his moms. :) He was so cute and reminded me of my grandpa who passed when I was like 5. I was so fun to see him and I hope that we can go visit him in the Azores sometime.

Night at the Improv comedy club celebrating Jason's 21st Birthday.

My cousin and her baby visited. He is sooo cute and just a happy baby.

This summer has been so fun and I've been soaking up all the fun times and laughs shared with my friends and family. Time to get with it and start looking for a job. I'm excited to see what I find.
