It's the most wonderful time of the year...

ITS ALMOST CHRISTMAS!!!!!  I am so excited. I absolutely love Christmas. Everyone is in the holiday spirit. Krystel and I decorated our apartment for Christmas and it is super cute!

Our Tree!!

And my super cute stocking.

Like I said I LOVE Christmas. With that being said the week before is the absolute worst time to go to stores EVER. The other day I was walking into Target from the parking lot and this lady zooms past completely ignoring the stop sign and almost hits me. Then she looks at me like "what the heck are you doing" and flicks me off. It was a little ridiculous.

In other news, I got a job. It is pretty much an amazing job. It is work study so I get a grant on top of getting paid by the hour. I'm a computer lab assistant, which basically means I sit at a computer, facebook, and get paid for it. It's a pretty sweet gig.

The other day I babysat my god-daughter Abby, and she is the absolute cutest little girl ever. There isn't really a story but I love this picture. She fell asleep in my lap.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!



thank the lord for electricity

It's been a while...

Well thanksgiving was last week and I went to Arkansas with my mom, brother, grandma, and uncle. It was so fun to do something different for the holiday. I have a really small family on my mom's side so it was a lot of fun to have a lot of people around for the holiday. We were able to meet some of the new additions to our family. I was able to meet my second cousins husband and daughter as well and my other cousins fiance.

Laine- Carmen's Daughter (she is so stinkin' cute)

To make it even more interesting at around 11:30 Thanksgiving day, as we were getting ready for lunch, the electricity went out. We called the electrical company and they said it would only be off for a short time. It turns out it was off for the rest of the day. Needless to say it made the day interesting. Thankfully, most of the food had already been fixed, but we had to eat by candlelight. It was kinda fun to have no distractions and to be able to really catch up with everyone. But then around 3 o'clock everyone started getting ancy because the cowboy's game was starting. Thank goodness for cell phones. The saddest part of the day was that there were no leftovers. That is always the best part of the holiday!

Well Thursday afternoon we headed home, because Mom and I HAD to be home for black friday. I ended up getting about 2 hours of sleep and then woke up at 2:30 and headed to target. It was SO cold but so much fun. We didn't get much, but we went to a couple places and then went to IHOP and got breakfast.

I saw a couple movies this weekend too. I saw Morning Glory, Harry Potter, and Love and Other Drugs. They were all so good! I highly recommend them. Just a little warning though, Lov e and Other Drugs is a little racy. Just FYI!

Im going to Oklahoma this weekend to help through Cortney a baby shower, so be expecting a lot of pictures!!!
