MY WEEK IN PHOTOS: MAY 2-7, 2016!

A rocky start to the week with a 24 hour travel experience, a gathering with friends, swim suit shopping (boooo!), mourning Yoko, and a beautiful loving Mother’s Day weekend getaway with my whole family.

Enjoy!

Good morning from the floor of the airport. I slept on the floor in Charlotte’s airport for maybe about 4 hours before we woke up, noticed a gate change, and took a walk.

Zach is v. tired, he didn’t sleep much.

We made it to San Francisco.

I know it’s morning, but my body clock is all out of whack. Noodles, chips, and coffee for breakfast.

On the way to Los Angeles, at last!

Carcassone on the iPad.

After 24 hours traveling, we’ve finally made it to Los Angeles!!!! *kisses ground*

In an amazing yet maybe unsurprising turn of events based on our travel luck, the cab we got into got into a very minor accident on an on-ramp. It was just dumb, our driver was def at fault and we were so tired and we just wanted to go home. We walked to a nearby hotel and called an uber…

Minor accident, but the drivers wouldn’t stop screaming at each other and blocking traffic.

Had a meeting with some museum folks on La Brea at dusk.

Wearin’ a new thrifted shirt

Yeaaaah! A project I work on every week is mentioned on AV Club!

Having a rough eczema spot between my fingers, they crack and hurt and crack and hurt…ugh

DEEEER!

A moody evening at the Getty and the biggest/closest rainbow I’ve ever seen

Good vibes.

Had to quickly run into Target for a swimsuit to hang with my little cousins. Of course I found other stuff I wanted.

Into it.

Packed and ready to head out to a family trip to Murrieta for Mother’s Day Weekend

I took the metro across town

Made it to South Pas!

The vet we used to take Yoko to is now a weird hipster shop “Biscotti and Baskets”

Yoko’s area, all clean. 😦

Trunk pizza

My mom and her sisters love gambling, so of course we stopped at Pechanga before heading to check in at the house for the weekend.

Lost my $10

Yoko machine

My mom played the penny slots and I hung with my dad

Game of Thrones machine!

Biggest slot machine ever?

Dry cheeks

Drove out to a house in the land of ranches and horses.

Hung out with the lil’ ones on the trampoline waiting for the other family to arrive

All our lil’ red named cups

My dad couldn’t wait to bust out the 1000 piece puzzle

My room, the other rooms were all occupied. It’s great, I’m in the theater room on a lazy boy.

I can watch SVU really huge on the big screen

In the morning I was on breakfast duty with my cousin, Erin.

We made a bunch of bacon, Hawaiian roll french toast, and an egg casserole.

Char and Syd help me finish the 1000 piece puzzle in the AM.

My Aunt’s pup Lacey is here. I luuurve her.

Camouflage

Welcome to my cult

Cribs, welcome to our (temporary) ridic house

We all walked around and explored the area. Came across from alpacas!

The two boys struggled to carry Lacey (who at this point was too tired/lazy to walk on her own)

We did some scooterin’

MORE trampolining

Sloppy joes for lunch!

My dad loves puzzles so much that he wouldn’t stop eating as he worked through his second puzzle

It started raining

Everybody took turns playing Pie Face, you basically spin a dial and whatever number you get you rotate the crank holding the hand with whipped cream…the kids couldn’t get enough.
