We started the New Year off right by watching our USC Trojans destroy the Penn State Nittany Lions at the Rose Bowl!!! Go Trojans! In Pete We Trust.
Side note: Seriously, enough of this controversy, USC and Texas are just as good at Florida and Oklahoma, let's have a PLAYOFF already!
The game was a blast! The only bad part is getting to and from the Rose Bowl (for those who don't know, the Rose Bowl is UCLA's home stadium and USC plays at the Colosseum). I feel bad for the Bruins who do that commute 6 times a year.
Here are some pics from the game.

Also New Years Eve was fantastic. A really fun and pretty perfect night. We walked to the Party on Pine Street in Downtown Long Beach. We had drinks at Smooths and an amazing pre-fixe dinner at L'Opera. There was also a band at L'Opera, so we did some after-dinner dancing and surprisingly ran into an old sorority sister of mine and split a bottle of champagne with her and her boyfriend. We then went outside to the town square of the big NYE Countdown. It was a great way to start our first full year as Mr & Mrs.

Hope you all had a great New Years and have a divine 2009! It's been really fun getting to know all of you out in the Blog world, and I can't wait to connect with you all more in 2009!

I envy you in your cute shoes going out on the town. Whenever me and my husband go out I have to wear flat shoes because we are the same hight. I don't mind it so much if we are just "out" but when we get all dressed up it looks funny if I am 2 inches taller
You are so lucky you got to go to the Rose Bowl! Great job USC!
aw, adorable! Happy 2009!

I found your blog a few weeks ago, because I'm also a newlywed in SoCal and then saw you commented on my cousins blog @ withthisnest! small world :) i love reading about your life in SoCal because my hubby and I just moved here!
Hi, thanks so much for stopping by my blog! I'm a fellow so Cal girl and newlywed, so I'm looking forward to reading more of your blog.
And FIGHT ON! I'm an SC fan married to a Texas fan, so football life gets interesting here sometimes. What we do agree on is that a playoff system has to happen.
Great photos!!
Happy New Year!
