American Music Awards Recap

It’s been a crazy past couple of days! Last night’s American Music Awards was a blast but let’s rewind first!

Friday night I went out to sushi at Market Restaurant with Lisa.

Wine! Edamame:

And lots of delicious sushi…

The sushi there is pretty amazing. I loved all the yellowtail rolls the best! I can’t wait to go back for more sushi!

Saturday morning the kids slept in so I did too! Yippee! Breakfast was an egg beater burrito with shredded cheddar cheese and salsa:

I went to get my nails done and then we all hit the road to Orange County to celebrate my mother in law’s birthday. I was pretty hungry when I arrived so I ate some snacks that were out. No picture. I also didn’t take a picture of my dinner…to much chaos. :) We went to Buca di Beppo and there were 20 of us…mostly kids. Yeah…chaos. But the food was good! I had Caesar salad, pizza and tons of pasta. We drove home and hit the hay.

Sunday morning I was allowed to sleep in a little too! I made an egg sandwich on whole wheat toast with a slice of Swiss cheese:

Then my husband and I hit the road for Los Angeles. We checked into our hotel. Somehow my husband got us on the floor that has a club room with tons of free food. Lunchtime!!

Plate number one: smoked salmon sandwich, veggie sandwich, Greek salad:

Some champagne to go with lunch:

Plate number two: roast beef sandwich, a piece of cheese and more Greek salad:

Plate number three: another salmon sandwich and some mixed greens:

I took a to-go glass of champagne and some cookies back to the room:

Hubby and I watched a movie and then it was time to get ready for American Music Awards.

We had special passes to view the red carpet. I took a couple of videos but here is one picture I took of Heidi Klum:

Yum! :) Dessert:

The salad and the dessert actually weren’t very good but the steak and lobster were. :) On the way out, look who I ran into:

Katy Perry. :)

So…..that’s about it folks. I need to get dressed and grab some breakfast and coffee STAT!

We will be hitting the road back to San Diego later and will be going to the Chargers Monday Night Football Game tonight!
