Joys of July Fifth

I woke up from some of the best sleep of my life. We got up and ate a yummy breakfast at the hotel. (side note: the best part of vacationing is delicious food. for the past three days, all I have eaten is delicious food. Though it most likely is not helping my weight loss, nor my long-term health. eh, live a little.) Then we went sailing, and I mean real sailing with the main sail and jib both up. It was magical. I sat next to my favorite Captain A-MAZE-ing, and rocked back and forth under the overcast California sky. It will be one of my most favorite memories. Once we got back, we headed home, but not without a stop for some food from Carl's and a trip to Dick's! The latter was especially exciting because I got an eno!!! It's red and charcoal, and a double nester! Also, I picked up a new Nalgene as well! It was a wonderful day. I also took a nap in the car, which are my favorite. We listened to John Mayer every time, and not one got sick of it. To make the day even better, I had invited some friends over to eat some more yummy food (Carne Asada, rice, beans, tres leches cake; I'm representing my home town over here) These 5 hours were wonderful. Trevor, Dee, Nicole, Emily #2, Mitchell, Gracie (Mitch's girlfriend, who I really like), Michelle and Jim Barnett, Katey and Sarah, and of course my family. It was just wonderful. We ate, laughed, talked, laughed, swam and laughed. Then I had to get up at 5 am and take Alexa Rae to the airport........... It was good to see her though..... I had breakfast with my favorite little cuz (Riv) and headed back to sleep for two more hours and who knows what the rest of today will bring! I am beyond blessed, and hope my trip stays this joyful! Until tomorrow, cyber world!

Joys:

  • Jesus is still King. 
  • I like breakfast, and coffee.
  • I hope I am a better waitress than Sophia
  • I like John Mayer
  • It is a new day

Joys of July Fourth (Also, my 20th Birthday)

I am blogging now as a 20 year old. yikes. I keep telling myself I am only growing in age, and nothing more. I can't believe this day has finally come. If I feel this way about 20, I can only imagine how I'll feel at 50! ahhh! Anyway, here are my joys from the fourth:


  • Jesus is King
  • I woke up and went on a walk with my favorite old man with Hazelnut coffee in both of our hands
  • We sailed (motored) up to Ventura and at at Brohpy Bros. I had crab cakes. They were yummy.
  • we came back, chilled and went on a walk to get Panda Express. even yummier.
  • we watched fireworks on the boat, went to sleep and I slept so good. 
  • I love my dad.
