Hello February...

I almost passed you by!  That seems to be my M.O. so far in this blog, January just doesn't get much attention.  Last year?  There was a reason.  This year?  Not so much - ha :)

Let's see.. Emma had an awesome tournament in mid-Jan up at Starfire, they lost the final game on PK's!!! That's a hard way to lose people, they played a better game and better tournament, but sometimes it just comes down to the kickoffs.  One other thing I remember - it was bitter cold that weekend!

I took my annual trip to CHA the last weekend of January (this time it was held at the LA convention center - did not like that) and had a grand time with Jamie, Jen and newcomers Sarah and Robyn!  Love hanging with these girls, it's one of a few things I look forward to every year.  One of our favorite things while there was this awesome little breakfast spot:

A downtown LA diner at it's best - they even had a bouncer at the door to allow a limited number of people in at a time!  Seriously, the line goes around the building and you just wait patiently for your turn.  Good reason too:  see the menu above just to the right of the row of lights?  That's IT!  Two eggs, hashbrowns, toast and coffee for $4.95!!!  And it was deeeeeeelicious!  So we went there every day :)

Other than that we have just been playing catch up with Emma's soccer, work, a bit of play here and there... and Emma and I had a fun time making valentines together.  The night before V-Day we painted her nails:

Not a bad job on freeform hearts if I do say so myself!! :)
