Memorial Day Weekend Collage

Well it's not Memorial Day Weekend any longer but since I have a couple weeks until I go back to school for the fall I was checking out some other blogs and came across a great tutorial on how to make a photo collage using Picasa on Skip to My Lou.  Here's the helpful blog post and the result:

Memorial Day Weekend 2012

What a fantastic weekend it was!  Friday at Off the Grid in SF and then up north to spend time Ryan's parents and take care of my parents' dogs while they were out of town.  We even made it up to Ryan's family's cabin in Mineral, outside Lassen National Park, to do some spring cleaning. Not bad for a three-day weekend!

We're #1

So we've moved again. Ryan and I moved in together five years ago this month and to mark that anniversary we decided the best thing to do would be to move into our fourth place together. Okay, not really. I don't know anybody who would choose to mark any anniversary with a move, ugh. The good news is we didn't have to move far. We literally moved down the stairs in our apartment complex.

So what would prompt us to do this?  Well number three in our family, Marley, had been having some trouble with the stairs so Ryan put in for the ground floor apartment a few months ago and sure enough it opened up and we jumped at it.

The great news is it's a great apartment: more space, better kitchen, bigger patio.  The bad news iswe still had to move, meaning this place is still a mess in progress.  Oh well, it's home sweet home until the next move!

Now Marley would love to give you a tour:

And don't you think the patio
is just mahhhvelous!

Welcome!

Somebody should do something
about this mess.

Happy (almost) Summer!

I know that the summer solstice is not until later this month but how can it not feel like summer when you are at the ballpark on a beautiful afternoon?!?

It was a great game yesterday between the SF Giants and the Chicago Cubs.  Actually it was turn back the century day so the Giants strangely enough were playing as the New York Giants.  They had great 1912 throwback uniforms on and old images were being shown throughout the game.  Best of all the Giants won, and I got to partake in some delicious garlic fries.  Mmmmm... garlic fries.  Our friend Mikayla was out from Colorado for the weekend so we all enjoyed the game, and again the garlic fries.

I'm hoping to fit a few more home games in this season.  Ah, I love almost summer almost as much as summer.
