memorial day fun

I am so ready for summer! Today definitely got me in the mood. I enjoyed the weekend so much more knowing that I didn't have to get up early today. This weekend was busy but so much fun! Here's a rundown of it: Friday: My second grade team had an end of year party. We gathered at Linda's house for hamburgers and just talked. We had a really nice time. Saturday: I spent a good part of the day cleaning out my ENTIRE closet. My closet is huge and I've just been putting things in there when I don't know what to do with them. I'm trying to get rid of things before I move so that I won't have so much junk to take over to the new apartment. Oh, and I found a dress for Sara and Jason's wedding. It's so pretty and I'm really excited about it. Sunday: Matthew and I went to church. Art, the preacher, talked to us about doing a 4 week bible study with him. We are really excited to get to know him better. We then watched the Ranger's game, went to a birthday party, and hung out with a couple of Matthew's friends that night. We ended up playing Wii until midnight...it was a blast. Monday: Matthew was so nice to take me to the arboretum. I just love that place! It was beautiful but extremely humid, so we didn't stay as long as we had planned. We ended up going to eat at Dodie's afterwards (really good cajun food). Then Matthew had to work so I went home and cleaned out my dresser! Here are a couple of pictures from the arboretum: Enjoy your week!

i must be bored...

You know I'm bored when I post twice in one day! I was just reading over my blogs and saw that I had posted one called "why i love cooler weather". I LOVE the change of seasons and right now is just about perfect. So... Why I love Warmer Weather *i can finally wear sleeveless shirts again *i get in the mood to cut my hair short (which I did last week) *it stays lighter later *spring cleaning! *the anticipation of summer break *it's an excuse to buy summer clothes *it's an excuse to buy a new swimsuit *laying by the pool *long walks *planning summer trips *Ranger's games *watching softball games *getting ready to RELAX! Enjoy the warm weather!

i know it's been a while....

Okay I know it's been forever since I've posted. I think there are only like three people who read this, so this is for you!! Actually several things have been happening lately... My mom and dad are moving! I went last weekend to help them pack up our memories. They are only moving down the block, but the house is bigger, has a beautiful backyard, and has the nice big kitchen that my mom has always wanted. I'm really excited for them and to help them decorate! We are finally committing to Bridgeway! Matthew and I have decided to place our membership this Sunday and we are both really excited. It's really the perfect place for both of us. Yay! I got my stimulus check!! Thanks George!! I am so very excited about this because it's much-needed. Keep reading to find out why... I'm moving! I have lived in this apartment for two years, but now I have an opportunity to save some money (which is something I have NOT been able to do since I've been here). Valerie and I have decided to live together, and I'm really excited. We're just moving to a different apartment in my complex, but it'll cost a bit to move because of a new pet deposit, a transfer fee, etc. I'll be saving lots of money in the long run, so I really think it's a good move. Now I've just got to start packing and throwing away! Oh one last thing: I started doing Weight Watchers. I have seriously been gaining weight lately, and it needs to STOP!! I started about two weeks ago and I have lost 3 pounds! I actually really enjoy it. I have 22 points/day and I log them online every day. I have 35 extra points/week so that I can splurge on my chocolate, cake, whatever I feel like. Plus, they provide tastey recipes that are low fat/cal. So, it's pretty much the perfect diet. And it's helping me to eat healthier. I think that's it for now. Sorry, no pictures to post today. Enjoy your weekend!!
