i'm in love. with the napa valley.

hi. my name is sydney and i love where i live.

1. going to santa rosa with chloe and walker
today i went to target and ulta and juice shack and michaels with chloe and walker. that was fun.

2. eating taylors for dinner
i'm sorry...i know the name got changed to gotts...but i just can't seem to make the switch. it will always be taylors in my mind. anyway. i finally got my chicken tenders and garlic fries that i have been wanting for what seems like forever. really, once you've tried a gotts shake, things like wendy's frosties and dairy queen blizzards, though nice, just aren't really that impressive. (sorry if i've deeply offended anyone, but you would say the same after trying one.) i'm totally taking my roommates here when we go on our california road trip in february. it's a must. so to sum this all up, good news: i had garlic fries. bad news: i had garlic fries and will smell like garlic fries probably until next tuesday. oh well, i'm a happy camper :)

3. napsnapsnaps
i know this is a terrible routine to get into, but i seem to have discovered a talent called "falling asleep right before bed time and then staying up late because you can't fall asleep." and as bad as it is, i kinda like it.

4. sparkles
today at michaels, chloe and i looked at all the sparkles. it made me sooooo happy. have i ever mentioned how much i love sparkles? well, i like them a lot. i bought some awesome sparkles that are kind of this champagne gold color and they are so pretty. i'm going to put them on my nails. we came to the conclusion that martha stewart has the best sparkles, and she had this set of like 20 different mini glitter samples that i wanted to buy, but it was expensive, so i didn't. and then i found five dollars.*

5. living in the napa valley
i love where i live. i don't think i can say that enough times. i don't think people really understand how pretty it is until they have been here. i try and explain to people just how amazing it is, i really do, but somehow i don't think they get it. photographs don't seem to do it justice. i'm so excited for my roommates and i to take our road trip so they can see the valley in spring! they get to see the blossoms and the mustard and the beauty that is the napa valley. and they get to see the tree tunnel that dennis quaid and lindsay lohan drive through in the parent trap. bonus!

hi. i'm the prettiest sunset you've ever seen from sydney's front yard.

sunset with david's avatar tree things.

OH and PS!! my local news channel actually showed a video of a monkey riding on a dog tonight. it made me so happy. that never happens in real life. but it did.
