A Real Saturday

…for me anyway. ;)

Had the day off today, and the hubby & I took full advantage!

We decided to cash in on our Aunt Mary’s Cafe gift card, (which was a wedding gift from our good friend Val), and treat ourselves to a delicious brunch. Afterward we killed a little time in our neighboring Temescal district, before we headed to the Pixar exhibition @ The Oakland Museum .

WARNING: This is a pretty heavy image post!

{I think this maybe Aunt Mary?}

{The man behind the camera. ;) }

{Note the lovely flea bites on my wrist! Attractive aren’t they?}

{Stopped by Scout and picked up this vintage casino ballroom keychain for $5, and two hilariously adorable cards. Sorry I can’t share them with you guys, they’re for friends that I know read this blog and I want them to be a surrpise! ;) }

We still had some time before the Pixar exhibition began when we arrived at the museum, so we checked out the Gallery of California History.

{Baby BOOM!}

{It always comes down to the arts & music.}

Just a few of the things that caught our eye.

Unfortunately no cameras were allowed inside the Pixar exhibition, but believe me it’s definitely worth checking out, especially if you’re a fan of Pixar movies, or even if you’re not.

You really get to see and appreciate the artistic process that they go through before the technology kicks in to bring the art to life!

I hope you all had as good of a start to your weekend as I have. Tomorrow it’s another early work day for me, so I’m off to get some Z’s!

Don’t forget to enter my GIVEAWAY, you have until next Friday(day) to enter!!  So don’t miss out! ;)
