Alrighty.  So it’s St. Patrick’s Day.

Now that  I got that out of the way.  (I’m Irish by the way.  C laughs every time I say that.  He says he looks more Irish than me.  Well can I help it if I’m predominately Filipino?  My Great Grams was Irish which makes me about 1/8.  Not that I’ll celebrate today, I just wanted you to know.  Also, why do we celebrate St. Patrick’s day?  Is it just to have a day to drink?  Seriously, someone please tell me.)

me and my green...also it's going to be 65 so I thought my Aloha shirt was appropriate

And this was pretty much my weekend.  I can’t complain.  We spent most of it outside!  It was nice to get some fresh air and sunshine.

pretty awesome huh?

pretty awesome huh?

I also raked a ton of leaves and we aren’t even 1/4 of the way finished.  Craziness.  C put his new chainsaw to work and cut up some wood.  We won’t have to worry about not having firewood, that’s for sure.  The yard is going to take a little while before it’s finished but it will be worth it.  I felt like an archaeologist uncovering stone stairs, flower beds and even a fountain pond!

St. Practice Day Activities

15-03-2008 by rialeilani

shamrocksAccording the people on the radio, today is St. Practice Day (Get it to practice for the real St. Patrick’s day). Yeah. Dumb. C♥ decided to go on a “date” tonight. We actually decided this last Wednesday, when C♥ asked me out. (Yeah, gag I understand, but it was cute). We went to Cheli’s Chili Bar. The food was decent but we had a good time watching hockey and drinking beer. We actually had pretty good conversation too.

The hostess looked exactly like Rory Gilmore (Alexis Bledel) it was freaking me out. C♥ thought so too. He used to hate when I watched that show and would obnoxiously walk by and say “Rooooorrrrry” when I was watching it.

When we got home we took a couple pictures of us in the bay window and then got the bright idea to get the dogs in there too. The first one we look like frustrated parents trying to get the dogs to sit before the timer went off. The got better and better with each one we took but none were perfect. Geesh like the dogs can’t realize we need them to look at the camera…lol.

welcome!
