Lovely LA Weekend - Friends!

It was great to see as many friends as possible over the weekend too!  On Friday, Chrissie threw a party for her 25th birthday, which was a blast!  I took tons of pictures with her polaroid camera, but none with mine :-( .  It was a fabulous time, with many friends, good conversation, and a delicious mint-chocolate chip ice-cream cake!

The next morning, I met Chris and we drove to Sierra Madre, where we had delicious chocolate/ raspberry pancakes at a restaurant called The Only Place in Town.  Then we went for a short hike (okay, more of a stroll) in Eaton Canyon.

Saturday night, Chrissie and I saw the Worst Movie Ever Made, namely "The Women" and had dinner at the cool retro Fred's 62.  We then spent a fantastic evening chatting, looking at honeymoon photos, watching TV, exchanging birthday gifts, eating (more) ice-cream cake, and relaxing.  She also gave me a huge stack of Martha Stewart and InStyle wedding magazines! Woo-hoo! Can you tell I'm excited from the picture?


On Sunday, after our engagement shoot, Todd and I raced over to 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica to spend the afternoon with Suzi and her fiance, James.  They biked (very impressively!) all the way from El Segundo to meet us!  We had lunch at Jinky's and then walked on the Promenade and the pier.  It was lovely to catch up :-).
