Part one of GPS Drama

Life was horrible without the GPS. Jeremy and I yelled at each other every time we got in the car. We were late everywhere from getting lost. We showed up to the destination irritated. We had a huge fights over which way was right. So we came to the sad conclusion that it was either a. get a divorce or b. get a new system. In order to save our marriage, we chose the latter. And we lived happily ever after!

Her voice isn’t the same but we love our new GPS system so much!

Dear homeless person/drug dealer/user who broke into our car:

We are no longer leaving our GPS system in the glove compartment. If you must steal something, please feel free to steal the whole car. We would LOVE a brand new one covered by the insurance company!

Thanks!

My mom, (also known as Diana) needed a head shot for her work. She’s the Senior Director of Orange County ROP. She tells me what exactly she does but somehow I always manage to tune out…oops!

Isn’t she sooo cute?!

Btw, my mom is the most difficult person I’ve ever shot! I don’t know what it is; she’s just really hard to get making a good face. As she said, “The true essence of Diana can not be captured!” hahaha!

Finally, we got a great one:

Thanks Brandie Bedell for giving us pointers on the make-up!

In honor of last night’s season finale of the Office, I decided to have my morning coffee in my favorite “I heart Jim” coffee cup. Best one dollar I ever spent! I’m just so mad that I didn’t buy one for all my friends!

Not sure which relationship I love more, Jim and Pam or Jim and Dwight. Enjoy one of my favorite clips:

Have a Happy Friday!

Here’s a few more details from Salvation Mountain I’ve been meaning to post. In case you didn’t know the story of this Leonard Knight, he has worked his whole life to paint this mountain about God’s love. And he lives in a house without electricity or running water! That’s hardcore! You can read more about it here.

We got to meet Leonard after a film crew was done making a video of him. He was a very nice man with the best aged face. The kind of face that you know has been through a lot and has so much character. He gave us a DVD about the mountain and we asked him if we could donate a few bucks for the paint. He said “I only want people to donate if it comes from the heart.” Very cool.

I love taking photos of other people’s art.

The view from the top of the mountain.

The paint cans were everywhere as it’s a never-ending project.

Painted on a pinto.

Before we left San Francisco, we stopped to meet with a really sweet couple (hi guys!) and we took some pictures of random things.

I was so sad that I didn’t have enough time to take more photos of swirlies!

The Ferry.

A little art fair:

I love fire hydrants. I always take photos of cool-looking ones.

Jeremy tried to take a bad photo of me but it came out good!

On the LONG way home on the 1 Freeway.

Right by the Hurst Castle, there’s this spot to view Elephant Seals, not to be confused with regular seals.

They make the funniest sounds!

I hope this one is just sleeping!
