Weekend Wrap-Up

Friday

I spent the day renewing my CPR and NRP licenses for work.  It was a long day but I'm refreshed now and still hope I never have to use the skills!!  It snowed most of the day but didn't accumulate. I left my house without a coat and was freezing all day!!  My BFF and I decided to have a sleepover so I went home to get my things and a coat and headed down to her house.  She and her husband had to go to the hospital for a little bit and I stayed there with the baby.  He was all over the place and finally crashed at 8!

 

Sweet little guy!!  I found Pretty in Pink, Pretty Woman, 16 Candles and Tranformers on tv.  Niki got home and we stayed up and talked for a little bit. 

 

Saturday

It was a nice lazy day, went to a ball game, came home and crashed!!

 

Sunday

I've been wanting to visit a new church but I haven't done it yet.  One day I'm really going to though!!  I cleaned, did laundry and dishes then sat down and started watching SMASH.  I got the first season at Target one day when it was on sale for $10 or something.  I love it!!  It makes me want to go see a musical!!  

Weekend Wrap-Up

Friday

I was up earlier than normal today because I went to bed so early the night before.  I met Niki & Ryker out to do a little shopping and get lunch.  I met up with some other friends for dinner and I finally got chips and salsa that I had been craving!!  We had a little girls night after. 

 

Saturday



I got up early so I could get my things together to go to Evansville for the night.  Maddie and Kelsey's Christmas dance had to be rescheduled because of the snow we got in the beginning of December and the dance was tonight.  I wanted to be there to see them.

After the girls were off to the dance, we went to get a little something to eat!!

Bella wanted a little bit of ice cream too!!

We sat around and talked at Michelle's for a while but we were so tired, we headed home soon. 

 

Sunday

Mom made breakfast for all of us and some of their friends.  Maddie came with Michelle and she seemed to have a good time at her first formal dance.  I still can't get over how darn old she looked!  Just makes me feel old!!

 

Weekend Wrap-Up

Friday
I was scheduled to work today but was on standby for most of the day.  I was not feeling well at all the past two days and the extra sleep helped me.  I woke up from that extra couple hours of sleep and felt much better although, food still didn't sound good.  I met Niki out so I could sit with the sleeping baby in the car while she got some grocery shopping done since we were expecting some snow and super cold weather this weekend.  We finished up shopping and then went to hang out at her house.  I got caught up on SOA since they were ahead of me. 

Saturday
I wasn't planning on going anywhere today so I watched more SOA and waited for the bad weather to get here.

Sunday
It was still raining when I got up a little before 8 but it quickly switched to an icy mix then snow.  At least I was able to get all of my Christmas decorations and tree put away and my house back to normal.  Every year I want to decorate more and more and then when I have to put it away I'm kicking myself for putting so much out! 

A little hot chocolate was called for on this snowy cold day!

This was on Monday when I headed to work that next morning!  Way to cold for me!!

New Years

Oh New Years Eve.....every year, we always talk about how next year we're gonna actually make plans early, well that never happens!!  This year we had plans for dinner and then were just gonna all hang out and play cards.  So many of us ended up being sick or babysitter sicks that we just cancelled plans.  I still went to my best friends house and we did some last minute shopping and got food to make for her family and me and then planned a Sons of Anarchy marathon for us!!  The boys did not partake in this because SOA is definitely not kid friendly!!

 

My pretty BFF and I in her leggings I got her for Christmas!!  We love us some leopard print...obviously!!!

Merry Christmas

We always spend Christmas Eve Eve at my parents house and it is my favorite day!!  Lately, we always do pizza and breadsticks for supper then we have punch and cookies for dessert.

 

Nate and I waiting to open presents!

 

Annual family picture

(It's really grainy if I make it any bigger)

So I'll just make this picture of my Tiffany box really big!!

I got pretty new earrings and I love them!!!

We spent Christmas Eve at my grandparents house.  I didn't take any pictures but I did take this picture a week or so ago when I wore the same leggings.  Love them!!

We all missed having Lindsay & Ty there but they have to spend time with his family too.  Me and Michelle and the girls went back to our parents house to watch a movie after we went to Target for a little bit.  It's starting to be a tradition!

On Christmas day, Michelle, the girls and I went to the movies (along with about a million other people).  I had been craving popcorn so bad and it was so good!!!  We saw "Saving Mr. Banks" and it was so so good!!! 

 

Mom and I got up super early the next day to do some shopping and we got some really great deals!!!  My favorite deal we found was this ceramic Christmas tree.  My mom had one just like this when I was a little girl that she made in ceramics class but had gotten rid of. 

Weekend Wrap-Up (Dec. 20-22)

Friday

Last night, I went to a small concert with a friend from work.  Easton Corbin!!!  We stood the whole time and there were annoying girls in front of us but it was still fun. 

Tonight, I had a Christmas party to go to that was rescheduled from earlier in the month.  An ugly Christmas sweater party!!  I had all kinds of ideas on what to wear but then I never made anything and tried to do something last minute and it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to so I just ended up borrowing a sweater from a friend!!

Just having a little sangria before the party!

Jennifer and I

Weekend Wrap-Up (Dec. 13-15)

Friday

I came home for the weekend for cookie day and my oldest niece was going to a dance.  My parents and I went to dinner on Friday night at a local mexican place they love!!  Mom and I sharing margaritas!  It was a fun night!

Saturday

Lindsay and I did a little Christmas shopping together then went back to our parents house to see Kelsey off to the dance.

 

Kelsey all dressed up!!!

 

 

 

Lindsay and I then went to hang out with some friends and played games.  We had a good time.

Sunday

We all got up early and started working on the cookie baking.  We made the most cookies we have ever made this year!!  It was over 900!!!  I didn't take near enough pictures.

Weekend Wrap-Up

Friday

So the ice started yesterday, going for about 12 hours, then the snow started.  I woke up to about 6 inches of snow and it wasn't stopping anytime soon.  I was so glad I got to go to my nail appointment yesterday and my hair appointment that was scheduled for today got moved to yesterday. 

A silly horoscope I saw on FB!

So that night I thought about trying to get to my friends house.  I was able to back down my driveway and that was it.

 

Saturday

This is what my driveway looked like, at least the sun was trying to melt some of it!  I never did get a snow shovel after last year and that was a big mistake!  The only thing I had was a broom.  It helped push some of the snow out of my way.  I did actually get onto the road, drove around the block and was able to get back in my garage.  I spent the day watching Christmas movies on Netflix and finished wrapping the few Christmas gifts I still had left.  I was bored out of my mind!! 

Sunday

This is what my back yard looks like...

I am still bored out of my mind but at least I had some things I could do to get ready for my work week.  Hopefully I can still get out of my driveway in the morning. 

I think my tree might be leaning...

Probably should have closed the blinds before I took this picture.
