Palm Springs Getaway

Source
Hello there! It's been quite awhile, for a few reasons... First off, I have some good news to share (as eluded to by the end of this post here).  My internship which I have been at since mid-July has turned into a job!!! I am so excited to be learning and working towards another career since teaching in CA right now is nearly impossible to achieve (particularly in LA). So I have been busy with that, working at the restaurant still and typical life duties of husband and home.  
On to the post at hand, this weekend I got to have a much needed getaway to Palm Springs for a dear friend's bachelorette party!! We stayed at the Riviera Resort which is a super cute hotel built in the late fifties and recently renovated with fun sixties pop-art style in mind.  It was soooo nice to chat and lounge in the pool without a care, go out for a fun girly dinner and then dance our hearts out to tunes like "Call Me Maybe."  Sunday was spent in the pool again and I even got to enjoy some reading. The trip home was equally as fun as I love driving on the 10 and seeing the windmills and of course, stopping by the Cabazon Dinosaurs.  Childhood nostalgia can always bring a big smile to my face. It was the perfect weekend away to refresh me for this week ahead!
