Santa Monica

We left Corona where it was over 90 degrees, heading to Santa Monica beach thinking that it would be at least 75 degrees there, but no... it was in the 60's and super windy. We had a blast, even though it was a bit on the freezing side. There were tons of little shops, rollercoasters, a jogging pathway, and funny people trying to make money. I loved it, especially being out on the pier. The best part about the pier (besides the view) was the old school music... 80's and all, it made the night so much fun! Oh and... I know I talked about good food in my last post but really, their frozen yogurt was fab... no wonder I'm packing a little extra heat these days!

Lakers Game

When I moved here there was some tension in the house because I was cheering for the Jazz, but since they lost, I decided to become a lakers fan so I could have a place to live! And believe me I am happy that I did because on Sunday I went to the Lakers Game at the Staples Center! It seriously was such a fun night. We had box tickets and were catered on hand and foot with the delicious food and my favorite... carmel apples! I could not believe how crazy it got in there, especially when Kobe Bryant pulled away and dunked it in the 4th quarter. Madness I tell you. I finished the night with no voice, and now I am left with a sore throat, but it was all worth it. It was a huge let down when they lost the series on Tuesday though.

Here's the Magic Johnson outside of the Staples Center.

Fillin' up on food before the game even started.

Check out or Lakers Gear. Brinley had a little cheerleading outfit on and it was SO cute.

Bre and Me.

Andre held this up the whole fourth quarter. I swear his arm must have been ready to fall off.

This is kind of a retarted clip but oh well, we had fun!

Internship Life

So I decided to start a blog. No I am not married, nor engaged, but I feel like my life is just as exciting as those who are married. And I want to let my family see what I have been up to. So, Here is the short update on what my life is like right now. I finished my junior year at BYU and I moved to California to do an internship for my my Aunt and Uncle's clothing company for the summer. I work in the office on Tuesday's and Thursday's, doing projects in HR and Marketing, and watch their cute kids at home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Techniquely I guess I am a mom, and therefore qualify for the world of blogging.
Being in CA has been so much fun. My eyes have been opened to so many new things. We live and work in Corona, but go to LA quite frequently. I have worked a few times at the LA Showroom which is in the California Mart where EVERY major clothing company has an office or showroom. It was so fun to walk around and see all of the companies and take a peek at their "behind the scenes."

Everyone was getting ready for market week and that place was crazy, the fashion industry is quite intense!

In this halway there were a bunch of different sets, for merchandisers and vendors. They were also setting places for photo shoots.This is in the courtyard of the California Mart. I decided that this guy symbolizes my internship and the industry-Freakish and intimidating at first, but once I got to know him- Not so bad, and actually pretty fun! He reminds me of the BFG ; ) I took this picture while I was driving downtown because I couldn't believe how streets were just lined with textile markets. I saw some of the most beautiful (and hideous) fabrics!!!

Look how cute!

Jesse and my super handsome nephews came and played with me for a week. It was so fun having them here. This "choo choo" went around the huge outside mall. It covered four blocks!

My cousins [or kids rather:)] and Collin chillin' with the flamingos

We also went to the Wild Animal Park. And took the safari ride to see all the animadls in their natural habitat... We waited 2 hours to ride it, and the kids were so wrestless and just wanted to get off!Finally finally the gorillas! I don't want to sound like debbie downer, but I think we walked for about an hour to find them!! Really though... it was a super fun day, the park was beautiful, and the kids had a great time!
