Magic vs. Wizards Game - 2/4/11

After a very long time, my hubby and I got to go on a super fun date! All thanks to my awesome father-in-law and sis-in-law Angie, since they babysat Alejandrito. He loves them. I had been wanting to see the Orlando Magic since Alex got me into basketball during last year's NBA Playoffs. Here are some pics!

#12 Dwight Howard is a Beast! that man can dunk! And he's not stuck up like Kobe or LeBron.  I still think he's an Avatar...or of Na'vi descent....

As expected, the Magic won! It felt so good to scream and cheer for them in a crowd where everyone cheered for the home team (Wizards) and then laugh at their loss. MUAHAHAHAHA! just kidding. it was fun being the only one cheering for the Magic though :)
We ended the night having some delicious Potbelly sandwiches and soup.
I love my esposito :)

I want to see them LIVE

Although I really enjoyed my years in Utah, there are a couple of things I won't miss and I don't think I will EVER miss at all. Among those things are the crappy radio stations and not having quality concerts. When I was a freshman at BYU, I would go to punk shows at small venues but that was it. I think the biggest concert I went to, was Incubus in 2002. Then Hoobastank in 2003. And just last year I had the privilege of seeing the one and only Peruvian diva, Eva Ayllon. That was historic. There would be artists coming in the summer, but I'd be usually gone visiting family in Orlando, SF, or I was out of the country for some reason. Thankfully, we were close to Vegas. That allowed me to fulfill my dream of seeing Mana in 2004 and the Jabbawockeez in 2010.
Anyway, after I updated my info on my ticketmaster account, I received an email with the events coming up in my new location. Seeing more than one artist I wanted to see, made me quite giddy. So here are my very favorite ones and their upcoming shows:


JUANES
APRIL 8  - MADISON SQUARE GARDEN
NYC

I've been wanting to see him since "A Dios Le Pido" came out back in the day when I was 17. Hopefully this will be it!


New Kids on the Block & Backstreet Boys
Verizon Center
Washington, DC

It's only missing Nsync! But it's ok, I saw them like 4 times when I was a teenybopper. Now as an adult, I can actually go to a BSB concert and not feel like a traitor. Ha!


The Cast of Glee
Verizon Center
Washington, DC

So about a month ago I decided to watch an episode on Hulu after seeing so many facebook postings praising the show or people admitting their addiction. Is it really that good? I saw the episode "The Substitute" and I was hooked on the music. I'm trying to familiarize myself with the storyline but to be honest, I don't care much about it. I mean it's funny and a little too exaggerated about high school drama, but it's the music and performances that have me hooked. Those kids have serious musical talent...and they can dance too.


U2 - 360 TOUR
M and T Bank Stadium
Baltimore, MD
Wed, Jun 22, 2011

It will be a dream to see Bono perform live for once and for all. I know my daddy will be proud of me for going, and I look forward to the day when I can tell my children I saw U2, the legend, LIVE.
Now...it's time to save up! or stick to one. or two. or three? Which one (or ones) would YOU pick?
This is too hard. hehehe

Becoming Adults...for Good

It seems that since Alex and I met, we've had to grow up...but at a high speeding rate. In a year and a half we've gotten married, started a new job/internship, got pregnant, graduated college (Alex did...I did back in 2006), lived in 3 different states, had a baby, and a variety of other events....and now...my love is starting his first, real, university-graduate, full-time, full benefits job position. Alex has been hired as a Business Technology Advisor at Deloitte Consulting - Washington D.C. He officially began training on Feb 7th, 2011 and had to travel to Atlanta for it. Last week he got to work from this area. And this week he continues to train in Dallas, Texas. Then, we get him here for another week, then he has another training elsewhere. This will just be for a couple of weeks until his training is complete\




I am so proud of my esposito, and I couldn't feel more blessed and grateful that during these often called "difficult economic times", my husband will be able to share his talents with others, learn skills that will benefit him for the rest of his professional career, and become the sole provider in our home. Alex has been able to accomplish one of his greatest goals and this will prepare him for the the rest of his professional journey as well. Congratulations Amor. We are so proud of you Campeon!


Black & Yellow

No, I'm not talking about the song.

On January 28th 2011, Alejandro got his first Jordans. He was so happy...and so was Daddy...well it was mostly Daddy. Although they're not walking shoes, Alex was waiting for Alejandro's feet to get to a size 3 so he could buy him his first pair of Jordans (Don't worry we got him some StrideRites later so they could help him with his walking).
We got him the Jordan Flights, and I have to admit, they are MAD cute. Here are some pictures to depict the event.   



Yes, we like to spoil him. It's like spoiling ourselves!
