Pretty, pretty bride

I was so happy to go to my friend's wedding! I hadn't seen her in ages and was delighted to meet some of her family.

My thanks to the bride and groom for such a lovely evening!

Japanese Garden at CSULB

Today, a friend and I visited the Japanese Garden on the campus of Cal State Long Beach. It was a gorgeous, sunny Southern California day and the koi were ready for some food! (Those guys can really pack away a lot of grub, by the way. Sheesh.) We had a lovely, short visit before heading off to other activities, which included an impromptu picnic. Definitely a relaxing day. :)

Hiking at Santiago Oaks Park

Yesterday, my sister and I went for a hike at Santiago Oaks Park. It was a beautiful day and I certainly hope I get the chance to go back in the near future. Alas, no photographic proof.

Balboa Park

So, I spent a whopping hour at Balboa Park yesterday. I managed to do a few of my favorite things, however. Eat lunch, slurp down soft-serve, and hit my favorite museum gift shops. That's right. Food and shopping.

Looks like I'll be going back at another date to visit MOPA and the Museum of Art. Georga O'Keeffe is in and I will not be deterred! :)
