I did not see a walnut or a creek in Walnut Creek.

Last weekend Sabina and I shared a ride up to the Bay Area so that she could visit her friends and I could visit my friends. We arrived super late on Friday night and crashed at her friend, Jen's, house in Santa Clara. After breakfast at Hobees in San Jose on Sat. morning, they dropped me off in Fremont with Megan and her girls, who are beyond cute! We went shopping and then spent the day hanging out with the kids and catching up.

In the evening Megan and I went out in downtown Walnut Creek and my friend from LA, Ed, met up with us. Good times!

On Sunday the Bells and I went out to eat in downtown Walnut Creek and then Ed picked me up and took me down to San Jose to meet up with Sabina for the long drive home. I had such a fun time with Megan's girls, especially Madison, who is now 23 months old. It was also nice to get in my girl time with Sabina and Megan--I am so blessed to have such wonderful friends!

Disneyland

I got to go to the "happiest place on Earth" yesterday--woo hoo! I spent the entire day at Disneyland and California Adventure and went on all the fun rides. I think my favorite ride is Space Mountain. I had only been to Disneyland once before (five years ago) and Space Mountain was closed for renovations. All in all, it was a very fun day!

Also...I went to the Long Beach Museum of Art this weekend, which I had never been to. It was small, but the location of the museum is amazing, so it was fun too!

New York, New York!

Oh my gosh! Sabina and I had a BLAST in NY this past weekend. I can't remember the last time I laughed so much and so hard. Our trip was one of the most fun trips I've ever taken and Jeff and Liz's wedding was, I'm pretty sure, the most fun wedding I've ever been to. The band alone was amazing--it was like being at a small concert. This entry contains some of the pictures that I took throughout the weekend, but it doesn't contain any of the pictures that Sabina took, so I'll have to add those later.

When Sabina and I got to NYC on Thursday, we had about ten hours in the city. And this is what we did: Battery Park, Bowling Green, Wall Street, NYSE, Federal Bldg., Trinity Church, Ground Zero, East Village, lunch with Tara and kids, Chelsea Market, Canal Street, MOMA, Times Square, Bryant Park, Rockefeller Center, and Central Park. Can you believe we did all of that?!




After our whirlwind day in the city, we drove up to Fishkill in the Lower Hudson Valley. On Friday we went to Jeff and Liz's wedding, shopped in Cold Springs, and then partied at the reception and after party.


On Saturday after breakfast we toured Liz and Jeff's house in Ossining and then walked around Roosevelt State Park (so pretty!!). Then, it was back into the city for dinner with Nicole and her friends Kit and Roselyn and a walk around Washington Square Park, NoHo, and Greenwich Village.
