Ski Week

A few weeks ago (okay...like a more than a month ago...) I was off a week from school for ski week. Instead of going skiing this year, I spent my time off right here in LA. (except for the 3 days spent in Vegas where jess shot a pizza commercial while I won big at craps and wheel of fortune!!!)

We had a low key Valentine's Day celebration to start the week off. A day of basketball watching topped with a surprise beach cruiser bike from my valentine =)




We did some more home improvement by painting the entry hall, hanging curtains in the bedroom, and making a headboard for our bed from a door.



MORE PICS LATER!

One evening we decided to explore some local bars. We found ourselves at Venice Bistro on the boardwalk. It was a great place with an awesome cover band and we danced the night away.




My ma and da came to visit to end the week. Their arrival started with some crappy events (found that all 3 of our bikes were stolen in the time I went to pick them up at the airport...so sad) but the fun times quickly came. We relaxed all weekend, watched movies, walked the boardwalk, put the headboard up, went to see a UCLA game at Pauley Pavillion, and had a couple of delicious lunches. So fun!

finally! I've been wanting to see pics from their trip out there! I say hanging out in LA doing all that cool stuff beats skiing any ski week!
