Well, it has been a long time since our last blog post. We have since taken up Hot Yoga at Hot Yoga of Kirkland. Needless to say, going from very little physical activity to 3 days a week (90 minutes per class) has been a daunting addition to our schedules. It was so much easier to come home, maybe sit on the couch, eat dinner, be lazy, kill the DVR and library movies, etc.....Ahhhhh. Memories! Nevertheless, we will get back to posting updates asap.
In the meantime, Anthony's newest lunch obsession is Jimmy John's. He used to go there every few weeks but the closest location was on 1st and Yesler and parking was a pain. Well, there is a new location that opened just north of Buffalo next to Krispy Kreme. Parking is great and the sandwiches are THE BOMB! So visiting JJ's twice a week is a normal occurence these days. Pictures of the store just before they opened are below.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! #3 totally tuna, no sprouts, no cucumbers, add provolone, add peppers! Delicous! Their napkins say "WIPE", that's Amy's favorite part... Plus their delivery peeps have these awesome jackets that say "Jimmy Johns" .....well duh, maybe that is over the top. But seriously, they are cool. I want one. Can I buy a franchise, stick it across the street from Buffalo? Nah, not until we pay off more of our house. But one day.......
There is something about getting outside of the airport and seeing palm trees and snowcapped mountains in the same view. We all know how Anthony feels about palm trees. Nevertheless, we spent a lot of time reading and and swimming and sunbathing by the pool. We went to a flea market and we also did some shopping.
Grandma drove the rented Lincoln to Cabazon so we could check out the outlets.
Yes, the mother load. A Donney and Bourke outlet.....man it has been soooooo long since we saw one of those (February in San Juan).
Amy and Grandma couldn't find anything that they "had to have" so we moved on.
It is super huge and we walked the whole mall. This picture doesn't do it justice...
We drove back and were super tired, so more reading and swimming.
Every year we see the windmill farms, we say how cool they are.....and still to this day as they continue to add hundreds everywhere, it is super cool.
This is the view from our patio/kitchen. Very peaceful.
Grandpa was watching the news and the healthcare debate was ongoing while we were down there.
At the airport going home, we saw some weird stuff. This ram was interesting and kind of cool.......
but is this necessary? I think not!
Also, very few people in the world would sport this plaid outfit. Amy and I weren't the only ones chuckling when we saw it.
