Catch Up Week 2: Erin's Weekends

We are so thrilled that our little sis and Micheal are getting married in less than a week. What a perfect time to post about her fun weekends.
The second week of December we had her Bridal shower. Her best friends put on a beautiful shower at the Cannon household. For the pics click HERE.
The next weekend the girls headed to Santa Barbara where we stayed at the Canary Hotel for the night. Pouring rain, shopping, burlesque dancing class (no details will be given, except that Erin would say Dayna gives one great lap dance), dinner and nail beautification.

The girls prepping for some intense booty shaking.

Yummy dinner only because there was a gluten free pasta option on the menu!

My more than beautiful sister (-in-laws). Love the bachelorette crown!

Catch Up Week 1: Christmas Sweater Party

Everyone's doing it! Put on your tackiest Christmas/holiday sweater and join your friends in holiday merriment.


We ventured to our old apartment, in which our good friends Neil and Amber Esposito now live, to hang out with cool people in old Christmas sweaters.

We played the best rendition of White Elephant that I have ever seen. Amber has been doing this with her family forever. All you need is at least one present per guest, a "Trouble" game board, a stop watch and many amped up people to steal cheap gifts.

SO MUCH TO CATCH UP ON!

I'll start from where we left off.

The week of Thanksgiving I had 9 clients that I was tutoring after school and I had been working as a substitute in the same 2nd grade class for two consecutive weeks. On the Monday after the long 4 day weekend the office secretary informed me that I would be a "long-term" substitute until February 1st. Good for our financial status, bad for free time and relaxation.
Our routine has been like a one trick pony for 5 weeks. Tucker and I leave the house at 6:40 in the morning, Tucker drops me off at Dixie Canyon Ave Elementary at 7:10, goes to work, then picks me up at 3:00, and zig-zags around Sherman Oaks dropping me off and picking me up at my tutoring clients killing time in between. After teaching 21 7/8 year olds for 6 hours and one on one tutoring 3 kids hourly after school we would arrive home at around 7:00 each night except Friday. It takes all my energy to make dinner and take a shower just to do it all over again when the alarm goes off at 5:45 the next morning. Wah...Wah, right?
In order to get life back to normalcy I will clean house, put away the Christmas gifts, call friends, and catch up on the blog (because I know at least one person is out there reading it).

Abandoned

I did not abandon the blog.
I have been thinking about it everyday.
I haven't been able to get to it because of the 12 hour days and booked weekends.
I will be back.
Happy Holidays!
