we just found out that that we should get the bpo (broker’s price opinion) results back next week! and IF they are in line with what our offer was (which the seller’s agent is confident it should be), we will have a new house by the end of the year!!!!!!!!!
still lots of “ifs” and variables to wait on, but so far it’s good news!!

so i just have to recap (for my parents) with the few pictures that i have the wonderfulness that was my 27th birthday!
matt took a 3-day weekend the 18th – 20th with the anticipation of some exciting plans in store, however, there was a hiccup with me getting time off, so plans got changed. we spent friday sleeping in, going to lunch and a movie and a birthday party for our good friend, glyn. we left saturday morning for half moon bay – one of our favorite places! we had dinner at hmb brewing company (another fav) and enjoyed freshly baked chocolate chip cookies at our b&b (another fav). sunday morning we enjoyed breakfast in bed and matt surprised me and took me on a hike! it was a typical foggy day in hmb, but it was a beautiful hike overlooking the ocean! we took tons of fun pictures!




matt found a fun little candy shop where we picked up some fabulous fudge and then hit up an italian restaurant which will for sure go down as another fav! so cute and great food!! we walked around downtown before we headed home.
then on tuesday (the day before my birthday) i got a text message from matt that said “we have plans tonight, i’ll pick you up at 8:30 (he didn’t get off work until 8). dress comfy – we might be out a little late.” so i got all excited trying to rack my brain of all the fun things he might have in store. we walked downstairs like we’re going to get in the car to go somewhere and he turns the other way, pulls 2 tickets out of his pocket for the killers concert at arco arena (literally across the street from our place) that he got for FREE from a friend at work! we showed up just as the opening band was starting their last song! it was a blast!
wednesday i was surprised at work with flowers from my parents and flowers from by bff, tara!


some co-workers took me out to lunch and then when i got home i was surprised by even more flowers from matt and dinner at pf changs! our favorite place

it was a fabulous birthday! i felt so special and totally spoiled!!

matt took me on a little mini-vacation this weekend for my birthday. and honestly i don’t think i could have asked for anything more – getting my husband all to myself for 3 whole days to do WHATEVER we wanted was pure bliss!! i don’t remember the last time we had 3 days just to ourselves! we slept in, we ate amazing food, we went shopping, we saw a movie, we went on a mini-hike overlooking half moon bay, we ate candy, took naps (well i did), took pictures and just enjoyed not having a schedule!! it was all so delightful!
and because of that… i didn’t work out and i didn’t stay up on my reading, so forgive me for not posting about it… i took a few days off. but i’m back in the saddle today!
pictures of this weekend to come!
p.s. fall officially starts tomorrow and that’s just exciting!! now if the sacramento weather could cool off a little, that’d be much appreciated!
