20th Birthday

Friday was my 20th birthday! Usually for my birthday I have themed parties [excluding last year when I had a surprise party], but this year I had a very low-key birthday. I went out to lunch with my mom, I watched a How I Met Your Mother marathon, my friend Favi came over for awhile and we skyped my friend Jennifer. Then I watched the Giants & the 49ers game [they both won!] with my parents. After the games, I went to the park with Vern and around 11 pm we went to Denny's. I got a free grand slam at Denny's,which Vern and I shared, and a brownie a la mode [spelled right?]. We stayed for about a hour and laughed over ridiculous things. It wasn't anything special, but I did have fun on my birthday.

Oh and one more thing.
One of the Giants players tweeted me happy birthday, which was awesome!

Look how much I've grown.

George Kontos tweeted me! He is so good looking. Just saying...

The card my mom made me. It's Draco Malfoy!

Weekend at Grandma's

This past weekend, Vern came to visit me at my grandma's house. She came Thursday afternoon and we left on Sunday afternoon. On Thursday we stayed at my grandma's and just hung out. On Friday we went to the mall and we went to go watch Man of Steel [the new Superman movie]. It was really good, but I don't have anything to compare it to since I've never seen any other Superman movies. Saturday we went to the Fresno Chaffee Zoo from 1-3 pm. Neither of us have been to the zoo in a long time and it was a lot more fun than expected. After the zoo, we went out to eat at Red Robin. Vern had a garden burger and a milkshake & I just had clam chowder. Then on Sunday we just relaxed, played some games, watched a movie before we left.

I took this photo mostly for my mom. Elephant butts!

The giraffes were my favorite part of the zoo.

This is my favorite picture of us from that day.

I know, I know. I haven't been posting lately even though I said I would. I'll seriously try to post more this month.
On Saturday, July 27th my brother Tony had a company picnic at the Boardwalk. He asked me if I wanted to go and I could bring a friend. I brought my friend Vern with me. We left around 9 and arrived around 11. We had free food [hotdogs, hamburgers, salad, beans] and drinks from 12pm to 2:30pm. We also got a wristband that let us go on all the rides for free. After we ate, Vern and I went on some rides. The first one was the rollercoaster, The Big Dipper. I'm not really a fan of rollercoasters since I'm afraid of heights, but I decided to go on this one. It was a lot more fun that I thought it would be.

This is seriously the scariest ride. I was freaking out the entire time.

I kinda felt like Pocahontas in this photo.
