Sunday Social - Childhood Memories

Happy Sunday! Today I'm linking up with Neely over at A Complete Waste of Makeup!


1. What do you miss most about being a kid? I miss the summers I spent with my Mom and my siblings. We would wake up late and head straight to the pool everyday.  

2. Did you have a nickname growing up? What was it? I did have a nickname. My Dad always called me "Kimmer". He always said it and eventually it caught on with the whole family and some close friends.

3. What was your favorite thing to do at recess? I loved playing Hand Ball! I was never really into sports or anything but I was very competitive with Hand Ball. Haha!

4. What did you want to be when you grew up? I wanted to be a teacher. Eventually as I got older, my fear of standing in front of a group of people deterred me from that. I still want to work with kids but in a less formal setting. Like my job at the Museum I work at! 

5. Did you participate in any school activities? Unfortunately, I didn't start participating in school activities until high school. I joined Stage Crew my Junior year and had so much fun helping with shows in the auditorium and playing music at football games.

6. What is the funniest thing you did as a kid that your parents still remind you about? Nothing really. My Mom always talks about how sweet and quiet I was. Out of all my siblings I guess I was the most behaved! ;)

Me and my parents on my birthday. :)

Birthday Weekend

This past Saturday was my husbands birthday! I made my first ever layered cake and we enjoyed a night out at our favorite Japanese restaurant with friends. Here are some pictures from my lovers special day:

I love how his cake came out! (Fun fact: My husbands name is Juan but he comes from a long line of Juan's, including his Dad, so he prefers to spell it Wan :))

We enjoyed some great food! At the end of our meal the waitress surprised my husband with a candle sparkler atop tempura green tea ice cream and the whole restaurant joined us in singing happy birthday to him! His face was priceless!

After dinner we headed over to his parents house to enjoy some cake and ice cream (we were so full we didn't even eat it! Lol). 

He had such a good day and I'm so happy I got to spend it with him.
