oh yeah...

we passed the five month mark!

busy weekend

aren't weekends made for sleeping in? not for me! the good news is that all the house stuff is coming together. we locked in our interest rate. we're turning in all the necessary financial documentation. the appraiser is set to see the house on wednesday, and the inspector is coming in on thursday. most of the work is out of our hands...it's really the other pieces having to come together to get this escrow closed.

the parentals are back from alaska. they had fun, despite getting sick while cruising. but all's well, they're on antibiotics and recovering quite nicely. it was really weird not having them around at home for so long. just me and coco for the most part, with frequent visits from francis. this is what life post-wedding is going to be! well with more francis, but geez, it's going to be very different! kinda exciting, but kinda scary too!

oh yeah, we told our parents about the house! we sprung the news on the oretas at their town fiesta on sunday. and then we surprised my parents with the news during my belated dinner at wood ranch that same evening. mmmmm tri-tip chopped salad...so delicious! so they're all happy for us. but of course, we need to CLOSE first. i want those keys in my hand!

what else did we do this weekend? we watched x-men origins. pretty cool for a comic book movie. but i'm really really excited to watch star trek. i totally want to imax it too! anyone interested? OH and j.crew is opening at ontario mills! yippie!! now it's complete...got my bcbg, banana republic, and j.crew. arg the only ones lacking are puma and lucky brand (both used to be stores there, but now they are gone). other notable happenings? the celtics beat the bulls (BOO!), and pacquiao pummeled hatton to the ground (WOOHOO!)
