Weekend Shenanigans

In case you weren't aware, weekends start on Thursdays in Tallahassee. That is unless you have 8AM Friday classes, like me. Friday 8AMs are literally the devil of college classes. However, Amanda's birthday was on the 24th so we had to make a little exception.

On Thursday night we joined her for a birthday dinner at 101 in downtown Tallahassee. We all got a lil' dressed up and had a great dinner celebrating Amanda's 20th year of life and beating teen pregnancy! You go girl! Lol

Thansk for the pic, Jules!

Painting (or at least trying)

With a tad bit of inspiration and a spark of creativity (and bravery) I decided to paint a black and white tiger! This whole shading, realistic, not traced, blending, thing was new to me and it as quite the struggle. But, I must say it didn't turn out too bad!

MEOW

Time to Get Rowdy

Friday night we headed out to Aj's Sports Bar and Grill for a little fun out with friends dancin' around, making fools of ourselves. We had a blast!

Hope you're weekend was as good as mine! Now go tackle the work week, tiger!

Oh, the Places You'll Go! - Rose Parade 2013 Pasadena, CA

                                             

I have never been to a parade nearly this big, so my dad was eager to take us there. We purchased reserved seats in the grand stands and reserved parking nearby, which definitely paid off! The hardest part was waking up at 5 AM the day after NYE to arrive on time to the 8AM parade. We were all exhausted after, but it was an awesome parade. I am still a bit snap happy with my new camera, so I basically photographed the entire 2 hour parade. Here are some of my favorite floats.

LAX had a neat float.

Me and my older brother enjoying the parade. 

The float for those who have saved lives by donating their organs. 

Disney's California Adventure Float

Loved the hot air balloons!

Carter Oosterhouse and another designer from HGTV

There was a whole house on the HGTV float!

These guys had the coolest, most ornate outfits ever! I wonder how heavy  all that is.

So, I'm pretty sure this couple ACTUALLY got married atop this float. How cool!

City of Burbank's Float--So Cute!

A little bit of country in this float. It was pulled by a humongous tractor! And check out that flag! USA!

The closing float of the Rose Parade 2013!

The pictures didn't turn out too great, but you get the point. lol

After sitting in traffic for nearly an hour, most of which that was in the parking garage, we headed back towards San Diego. On our way back, we stopped at the Torrey Pines Gliderport in La Jolla. Here are a couple pics I caught of these paragliders flying over the ocean! Looks like fun! They must have a great view from up there.

Happy New Year! 

Love,
