G-MA

My 88 year old grandma from El Salvador came to visit for a few days before visiting my family in Canada. It was fun having her around, telling stories about my papi. It was too hot to really go sight seeing so we did some drive-bys and of course my favorite, shopping. I got some great deals (may be my G-ma was good luck?!)

She could definetly read this menu without her glasses...too bad it wasn't in spanish.


In front of my house.


Jon was trying to get our dog chopper into the picture. Every meal my grandma fed chopper half of what she was eating. I kept on telling her not too but she couldn't resist his cute face. I was afraid he was going to have a sugar overdose or gas from her frijoles. Chopper loved my G-ma.

By the way we are off to Mexico before I start my new job.

Who wore it best?

For those of you who read People magazine are familar with the "Who wore it best" section. My shirt reads the same as Kim Kardashians, but I think Chopper wore the "Green" shirt the best. Agree? By the way my shirt was made out of recycled material and wears my name! What could be better?

So Cal Summer

For our second trip to Cali this summer we went to Oceanside with Jon's side of the family. We do it every year during last week of July/ first week of August. It is great to catch up with those we don't see very often. I need to remember to bring my camera so most of these pictures were stolen from someone elses camera.
Here are some of the highlights of the trip:

My gal pal Julia, a bridesmaid of mine, picked me up from the airport. We then met up with Jon and had a healthy lunch somewhere near the beach and then went for some awesome frozen yogurt. This yougurt place had tons of flavors and they let you serve yourself like a 7-11 slushie machine.




Here's a glam shot of Jon looking at the surfers. We kind of got lost so we parked at this cool spot. Then when Jules met up with us again she said this was a secret surf spot for locals. Funny that we randomly found it. We went swimming here too, but dont worry I didn't post any swimsuit shots.



Jon did a lot of biking while out there.


The last night we ate at the infamous "Claim Jumper" restaurant. It was sooo good. This is most the fam minus a few.
