EWWWWW...

Ew. Thank goodness gas isn't this high, and it was just a malfunction. With my income, I wouldn't be going anywhere for a while if it were this high!!!

A night @ Emily & Ryans

So Emily had been DYING for me and michael to come over for dinner, so last week we finally got a chance to go over. We had a casserole dish and then watched some American Idol. There were some funny people, and my personal favorite was "Pants on the Ground"...... :)

After American Idol we got to play some wii, and by the time we finished all of that it was time to go. It was tons of fun and I can't wait to do it again! :)

"Fun" nights with Michael.

Us & the little puppy dog we wanted for like a day :)

Me & Michael had no one to hang out with or anywhere to go one night, so we decided to just have "fun" and sit around by ourselves til the wee hours of the morning. Here's a few pictures from that night.

Christmas Break 2009 ♥

I had a great Christmas this year. I got all kinds of gifts, many of which I did not expect. On Christmas Eve, Michael & I exchanged gifts. He got me a shirt from AE, a necklace from AE, some spray, and something else I can't remember. I got him Bulls tickets for March against Cleveland, a Kansas City Chiefs sweatshirt and t-shirt, and the movie The Hangover.Afterwards, we went to El Paso to go to church and then have dinner at my aunts house.

On Christmas Day, I exchanged gifts with my parents and got all kinds of goodies. Later in the afternoon I headed to Michael's side at his grandma Reeter's in Bloomington and got WAY too many gifts, but I am very thankful that my boyfriend's family is so kind. Rhys & William got me matchbox cars again & some candy canes. Emily & Ryan got me a 20 dollar gift card, and his parents got me all kinds of things from boots, to a thing where I can eat or do homework while not sitting at the table (which btw comes in use ALL THE TIMEEE).

(Notice my necklace, its the one that Michael got me for Christmas... :])

It's Been A While...

WELLLLLL, its been since Halloween since I have posted anything...(woops!) I should probably start keepin up with this thing for 2010 so I can keep my most dedicated followers(cough cough EMILY haha) up to date with whats goin on in my life. I will start of with Thanksgiving since my last post was about Halloween...


Thanksgiving

It's been quite a while so I don't remember much about Thanksgiving, but I do remember it was a pretty fun day. Except for the fact that I had to work the next day at 345 AM :(....... I had Thanksgiving for my dad's side of the family in El Paso at noon, then headed to Michaels grandma Reeters in Bloomington. After hanging out there for most of the day we headed to the other side of his family, the Meiner side. We had dinner there and then went downstairs to hang out. It was pretty fun overall.

Cute Grace :)


Me & Michael :)

boo!

Halloween this year was great, and I had a blast! Every night from Thursday-Saturday was filled with tons of stuff to do.

Thursday night: I hung out with my friends Nikki and Ashley after I got out of class. We decided to meet up with my friend/old neighbor Brett at a party. Nikki, Ashley, & I were the "walks of shame".....classy, eh? ;)

Friday Night: Friday, one of my best friends KENZIE came to town, so of course we had to celebrate. Calyn & I decided on being cowgirls that night. Kenzie was a sailor, her friend was an 80's girl, and Amelia was the Statue of Liberty. We walked what seemed like forever to a party in Normal, and it was a blast. We ended up at the frat ARG, and it was amazing to be reunited with kenz. :)








Saturday Night: If I had to pick my favorite night out of all three I would definitly say Saturday. I got to see a mojority of all of my favorite people and I overall had a blast!! At about 2:30 pm I went to work in my costume. A girl named Amanda, and I, were the two lucky ones that got scheduled to work on halloween.....yay....not ;). It ended up not being TOO bad, although I would have loved to have gotten out earlier, but oh well.
After work, I wasted no time and headed straight over to Nikki's. After I got a few drinks in me and played a round of beer pong, the party bus was there to pick us up. We all headed over to a guy that Nikki is friends with from work who was having a keg. Michael & I didn't last long there, and had to have our friends Wendy & Josh come pick us up. When they picked us up we headed on over to a friends house who was having a huge halloween party. It ended up being really fun. Michael & I walked back to my apartment after the party. Overall it was an AMAZING Halloween filled with all fun and no drama, just the way I like it!!
























(I also forgot to mention that this halloween was mine & Michael's one year anniversary of first hanging out ;) just thought i'd throw that in there. We decided to celebrate by dressing up together. Shockingly, that was Michael's idea. We were Cowboy's & Indian's if you couldn't tell.)
