Tis the Season

I've been so busy the last few days I haven't even had a chance to update about our weekend.

Saturday we headed to Pyreneese Pet's for our holiday pictures which turned out a little more challenging than last year but we still got some cute pictures and got a great family one for our Christmas cards this year. Ms. Daisy was dressed in a pink dress and Mr. Patch in holiday sweater. Of course it was FREEZING that day and this year they decided to set up the picture booth outside :o( poor little Daisy was shivering the whole time. Daisy is a bit of a wiggle worm so getting her to pose wasn't as easy as Patch. Santa also wasn't quite sure how to hold them both so in some pictures you can tell Patch isn't to certain about what is happening. It was funny.





We were short on time so we headed home after pictures. The doggies were pooped which was a good thing because we needed to drop them off at home to head to the city. Olivia met us at the house and then we headed into SF for the Kathy Griffin show. We headed out kind of early because we weren't sure how bad the traffic would be and good thing we did because we did hit some traffic. We had dinner at a pretty good sushi restaurant in San Francisco with free parking, yay! By the time we left the restaurant and got to the Nob Hill Masonic Center it was 6:30 and we thought we had plenty of time before the 7pm show...WRONG!!! Every parking lot in the area was FULL and no street parking to be found so Rocky just dumped us off and went to look for parking, far away :o(

The show was great although there were some bad sounds issues and we could barely hear her at first. Eventually it all got worked out and we were able to enjoy the show until some darn women behind us kept talking loud and Rocky had to say something to them, how rude!

I LOVE Kathy Griffin, she is hilarious. She made quite a few references to things that had been on the Oprah Winfrey show which of course I TiVo so it made things really funny since I had watched them.

We were out of there fairly early so we hit the Holy Cow in SF and then eventually made our way home. It was a fun evening.

Sunday was spent vegging out with the hubby and the doggie. We had intended on going to get a Christmas tree but it was cold, windy and looked icky out. We chose to put it off til tomorrow.

The holiday spirit is slowly making it's way into our home. I've had a few functions to plan for my work and I've been swamped with work work that I haven't had a chance to really think about our own holiday stuff but last night I put up a few things and it's looking cute.

Olivia and I had dinner at her house since my hubby had band practice and seeing all her stuff up really got me in the mood to decorate our place. By the way if anyone is wondering how the local crabs are doing....OMG...they are meaty and taste yummy. Olivia and I had crab for dinner last night and it was delicious. She also made a salad, rice, rolls and for desert we had peppermint bark.

Okay, back to Christmas.......I can't wait to get our Christmas tree and get it all decorated. It'll be our first Christmas in our new place and married :o) We've also gotta start making our shopping lists and actually get out there into the madness and shop.
