Week-END!

It has come to an end and boy was it fast!

Yesterday I spent the day with my mom, auntie, and brother's and sister. We started the day at Sonoma Chicken Coop in Campbell. We had their champagne brunch. It was OKAY! I was hoping for a more fancy set-up, but it was basically order your breakfast and then go to the bar side and order your champagne SEPARATELY!

Afterwards we walked the Farmer's Market. The kids enjoyed it very much. We also discovered a recycled book store. Readers that we are we had to go in there. Of course we all purchased a book. They even had updated Chick Lit! I was impressed and will most likely going back. We also discovered a lady who makes and sells cute jewelry for really cheap. Of course we had to purchase some jewelry!

After the shopping we headed to the Campbell Park so the kids could play. We had ice-cream, made a castle, well at least attempted to, Raymond went on a swing. He loved it!

It was a nice day to be out and about!

I then headed to the scrapbook store to pick up a few things and then came home and did some scrapbooking.

Today was a much lighter day. We pretty much napped all day and I watched the Soparanos Marathon. It's a good show too. We just finished having a nice dinner on the patio and enjoyed the birds and nice weather.

I hope that you all had a nice weekend!

I Did It!

Yesterday Alex and I completed the 7.5 miles Bay to Breakers race in 1.5 hours! It was fun and rewarding. I never though that I could do a race. I mean I love working out, but I never thought I could do a race. To top if off I ran the whole thing! GO ME!

It was a crazy event. We saw ugly, gross naked men, dirty girls trying to be cute, and it just seemed that if you were a non-runner you were there to look silly and be drunk. Just not my style of being creative and having fun. All in all it was fun!

I am now going to prep myself for the Wharf to Wharf and the San Jose Rock and Roll half marathon.

Next year Alex and I would LOVE to do the Boston Marathon!

I guess I am now an offical runner!

Happy Mother's Day

Mother's day this year was wonderful! Yesterday my sister and I cooked and baked for my mom and grandma. We had some cocktails, took photos, and just had some good times. They both got great gifts which they loved very much.

My gift to my mom was a day at the Spa followed by some shopping! We started the day at LaVande Nail Spa at Santana Row. We both got manicures and pedicures with paraffin wraps. It was so nice to get pampered. Even though I am not a mom I sure felt happy get treated like a mom. Then we did some shopping. I got a cute dress and some random items. Then we had lunch at Consuelo's (SP). Had an amazing salad with cocktails..Sangria's! Then we just did some walking and enjoyed the beautiful weather.

Now I am home..doing homework (UGH!)and getting ready for the upcoming busy work/school week.

It was a beautiful weekend!

Taking Time Out

Today I took the day off from work to have an "Angela" day. Also because I am hosting Bunko tonight. I got to sleep in, not wake up and start worrying about what I have to do at work, and just relax my brain today.

My sister slept over so we are going to hang out and do some shopping for Mother's Day!

Now I need my coffee and then I am set for the day.

Looking Great!

Well I just recently tried on a bathing suit and let me just say I feel and look great! I been working out again and it feels awesome. Yesterday at the gym I saw a friend and she told me that I look great! So I know that my eating and exercising habits have been paying off. My running has improved as well. Been running a total of 6-8 miles a week.

I'm currently watching The Biggest Loser and I am amazed at all the people that have lost 100 pounds. That is like losing a whole person! Good for them!

There should be more awareness about obesity and getting America skinnier and healthier. Watching this show has motivated me more to keep working out and eat better, but still eat my cupcakes!

I think I am going to get my family members into gear and commit to them that I will walk with them on Saturdays and help them get to a comfortable weight.

Well gotta go...they are going to announce the final 4 winner!
