OH the shopping never ends

If you know me, then you know that this really isn't a true representation of who I am. Now I don't consider myself a vain person, though I love to shop and I enjoy helping others shop. Most of my friends call me the fashionista...which I consider a true compliment. I do have to say that me specialty is JEANS- give me any person, any size and any budget and I'll find you a perfect match! I just wanted to share some of my favorites- *(and if you blog you know how hard it is to add all these pics so that's why there are only a few)

OH The Weekend

I love being outside- and when the weather is just right, who wouldn't want to be outside? I had a ton of fun down south this past weekend. It seems that every time I go down south (or should I say anywhere) I end up eating way too much and spending way too much money! Let us begin with my weekend...

I got in on Friday night- left right after work and headed on down. By the time I got there I was starving! FEED ME is all I could think. Sumo Sushi is fantastic! YUM right to my tum. So of course I way over ate and enjoyed every moment. Now being Friday night, who wouldn't want to have a tasty treat after?! If you know me you know I'd eat carbs, fruits, veggies and sweets all day every day and not worry about any other food. So we headed to get a tasty treat at Bali's Yogurt. If you haven't been to a fun FRO-YO joint let me explain. Pick up a cup- or cone, fill it with whatever flavor and amount of yogurt you'd like and pile on the toppings. Once you're done just weigh you treat, pay and enjoy! The best invention yet! So thank you non- fat fro-yo!



Ahh the Apple Farm. This is the best place to start your day. Mom always says you can't miss breakfast and what better way to get your hearty meal than to come to the Apple Farm. I recommend this to everyone! Try it out!


If you haven't been to SLO then you're missing out on the down town area. I love shopping and so there are tons of cute shops to go and thumb around. Once we were all stuffed with the yummy breakfast it was time to walk it off. Unfortunately even after a long time (I'll spare details on that) of shopping NOTHING was purchased. So odd for me, but oh well it is what it is. Since time had elapsed (remember I'm sparing details but I'm sure you get it) it was time again to eat. SHOCKING!


Heck yes it was time for Quickly! Woot woot! Boba baby Boba. I'm not always one for weird things but Boba drinks I have to say are bomb. I love fruity drinks and how great to have Boba with it. (for you whities boba is tapioca pearls- kinda like fruit snacks or gummy bears without the flavoring) So Quickly it was for our trip to Costco. *sigh* more money spent to make a tasty seafood meal the next night!

After our adventure of food we headed out to Montana de Oro which was absolutely fabulous! We went on a 4 mile hike- 2 miles in and 2 miles out! This is me almost to the top! Oh baby- here I go! So as you can see I have something on my arm. I recently go the Body Bugg and am loving every minute of it. The only down fall is- when I'm on "vacation" I tend to not do as much activity, but with this fantastic hike in Montanan de Oro- I was able to be killer with the Body Bugg. Heck yeah Heck yeah, now maybe I was able to work off breakfast! LOL riiiight...
So in keeping with the info on the Body Bugg, it helps me monitor my activity levels during the day, the amount of calories I burn and how many steps I take. I can log in online to track my eating habits and see it along side what I've burned for the day. So I've been trying to be as good as possible- and with my hike I killed my goals for the day, now if only I could keep it up.



to end it all we ended up eating here at Tahoe Joe's as we always do. What a way to top off out DAY in SLO. Can you believe we did all this in one day!? Food glorious food- la la la la la la!!!! Oh by the time the day ended I was rollin home but every minute was worth it.... Now back to Body Buggin it with the start of the new week.


Oh and remember how I said I always spend too much money?! I bought a Mac Book and printer this weekend as well... did I forget to mention that?

Too long- too much to catch up on...

January- as a hygienist you never think that you'll be going on a business trip.  I mean come on, all you do is clean teeth right? WRONG!  First off when people ask if all I do is clean teeth I tell them I do more, much more.  I build relationships, educate, serve, have fun and do lots more while cleaning teeth.  I mean shoot- did you know your mouth is the gateway to the rest of your body?  Ok so back to business trips.  So I had the great opportunity to go to Palm Springs to a Business Mastermind seminar- held by Tony Robbins.  We had the best time ever and learned so much.  I have to say that as a team we built a stronger team relationship.  I met some fascinating people that I can't wait to see again!

February- well for most people it's the month of LOVE... for me it is always  the month of sibling birthdays!  My oldest sister comes first, then my other sister, and finally my brother in law.  Now gifts are a big thing for me.  I always want to make sure I get people exactly what the want or need- in fact I try to listen so intently to what people want that sometimes they don't even remember they wanted  it!  :)  Puts a smile on my face every time!

March- so I'm always one who's up for travel.  I work 4 days a week which means I have a 3 day weekend every weekend.  I know be jealous, it's ok.  So here was my schedule.  I was off Friday, then off always on Monday and I had taken an extra day off on Tuesday for an extended weekend.  I thought that a friend and I would be traveling down south, but unfortunately that did not happen.  Thursday night I was feeling kinda bummed about the whole situation and was talking to a friend and my mom and decided at that moment to check to see how much it would be to go to Hawaii.  The price was right and I called my uncle.  He said my aunty and cousins and their kids were coming this weekend too so hop on a plane and come on over.  So I bought my ticket on Thursday night and got on a plane Friday morning :)  OH how I love being flexible!  Now let me tell you that these shoes were meant for traveling!!!!!

April- It's my birthday month!!!  HOORAY- celebrate with me!  I love the month of April because it's just about the time the weather starts to change and it's when I get to celebrate not only my birthday, but a ton of other people's birthdays too!  I have to say that I  know more people born in the month of April than any other month!  CRAZY.  So I got to spend some time with my office ladies- dinner with friends- dinner with the fam- lunch with the best girl on the earth- and I still haven't celebrated with everyone!  I'm going out to get some yogurt tomorrow to continue the festivities and Friday night I'll be heading out once again for some fun!  Now wait, even though the month will be over soon, if I haven't celebrated with you, don't fret- there's still time- we can keep the fun going as long as need be!!!  LOVE IT
