Sunniest Easter Sunday
It is 9:59am, 55 degrees outside, hazy and rainy as I am nestling under a hair dryer near the back of the salon where I can hide from my fellow workmates until my next client arrives. As I quiet my mind, fragmented images of Angels stadium, Universal Studios Hollywood, Katsuya Sushi in Laguna Beach, and Sprinkles cupcakes all race its way into my thoughts, stirring it ever so lightly. I realize my Easter weekend was jam packed with unforgettable events and celebrations.
Let's back track to the most gorgeous Easter sunday one could ever wake up to. We were granted with an amazing sunshine and impeccable uplifting mood swings. There was no church, no easter egg hunting, just breakfast at JD Schmidt, the baseball game, a few lolly pops and frozen lemonade, and lots of Angels surround our presence. Our day was blessed with so much joy and happiness.
Following Easter was Dan's first visit to Universal Studios, best known for their unavoidable lines and screaming kids, where we ventured through a couple of rides and a few I unimpressive shows. Even with a late start, showing up at the gate around 12:30PM, just a short six hours later, our bodies were destroyed of enthusiasm and fun sucked dry from our body, forcing us to conclude our day early with Shrek 4D. With four extra visits left on our ticket, we were in no rush to complete all the rides or see any more mediocre shows. We headed home bound.
Fast forward our weekend to Dan's midweek birthday, April the 11th, marking his second year celebration with me. Our day started out with the typical work load and Katsuya, a fancy sushi restaurant serving Kobe beef in Laguna beach awaits us sometime in the evening. Locking ourselves into a dinner reservation would've been too restricting for our liking, so we purposely left it open to feed our free-flowing spirits. We arrived at the restaurant close to 7PM and and left a little after 8. We headed for Broadway, a restaurant recommended by a good client of mine, for their signature desserts and coffee. But our timing was off, they had reserved the entire restaurant for a private party, so we were left with a back-up plan that I had intuitively set up - red velvet Sprinkles Cupcakes hiding in the small refrigerator hidden underneath the wet bar. Dan was thrilled.
It was a long weekend to recap, but it was too significant to not blog about. It went by too fast. Here I am, the week has propelled to Friday and even though the weekend is starting all over again, it will never be the same as weekend we had before.
