Vote Yes! on Proposition 8.

This is for all the California voters out there and for all the people who know California voters. This is John. I NEVER blog, but I feel this is too important so I had to. Prop 8 will change everyone's lives and it is far too important to not vote on this issue if you have the opportunity. Make the legal definition of marriage between a man and a woman. This proposition takes NOTHING away from gays or lesbians, but solidifies the legal definition of marriage. I don't claim to be an expert on this issue, but for further information please see www.preservingmarriage.org. I may not be voting for a presidential candidate this year, but I am most certainly voting YES! on Proposition 8.

Audrey's Birthday + Pepperdine Family Day...

Last Wednesday was my 25th birthday! We celebrated it with John's family (including Scott)! I'm so glad to have at least some family by us in California. We went to this italian place on 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica Ca. Santa Monica is such a rad place. The food was delicious and we had a great time looking around. John's parents picked us up some cupcakes from Sprinkles and sang "Happy Birthday" to me. THey have some yummy cupcakes you should check it out if you want a great cupcake. Thanks to them for making it a great birthday for me! Oh and John ordered me ANOTHER band that I had wanted. I felt so spoiled. It looks so pretty! Thanks John! You're the best! On Friday John had "Family Day" at Pepperdine. John's parents and I came. We sat in on his first class; which was Civil Procedure. It was boring but interesting to see how a class went down. Then his mom took us to Dukes in Malibu for lunch. It was really good! I hear they have awesome fish tacos. (I don't like seafood)... The view was amazing. We sat outside right next to the ocean. It felt like you were on a cruise ship. Then we went down to Mission Viejo for the weekend to celebrate John's Dad's birthday! During the day on Saturday Debbie and I went to a craft class in her ward and made some Holiday decorations. They were extremely simple (which is good because I am so not crafty...) and they turned out pretty cute! I don't have very many Holiday decorations so this was a great opportunity to build my collection and spend some time with Debbie. Then Debbie and I went to the fabric store and picked out some fabric for some new pillows for the living room. We went back and she sewed them up for me. They turned out great! Thanks again Debbie. Then for Geoff's birthday we went to The Cheesecake Factory. It was great as usual. Then we came back and watched The Paper Chase. It is an old movie about a first year student at Harvard Law school. John's dad has been telling us about it for awhile and we were glad to finally see it. It was very interesting. Then we opened presents and ate a yummy cake Debbie had made! What a great week we had! Here are some pics from all of these events! Hope everyone is doing great!
