Hope This Makes You Smile

Here is my vacation so far. I've spent all of my time playing with my nephew. Playing with toys, going to the park, taking a bath. Being an aunt has been the best experiance of my life. Here is a video of me playing with Chase. I hope it makes you smile like it does me. Enjoy! :0)

And of course I have to add a few pictures!

I need a break..

Columbia. Tomorrow. Thank Goodness!

Nothing New Here

So far Spring Break hasn't been too exciting. Sleeping in. Going shopping. Today Mom and I headed out to get my prom dress altered. I was really excited to get a dress on sale for only $80 but the alterations ended up costing more than the dress at $95. Oh well. Still super cheap for a prom dress. Last night was a HUGE deal for me. My best friend Emily and I made these static clings for our friend Alex McArthur who passed away last year. We wanted to make something for everyone to remember her by and I know of these from seeing them when I would go down to Jeff City. Well it was kinda a pain in the butt to get them because the people we were dealing with were totally rude but that it okay. It was all worth it when I got to see the look on her parents faces when we gave them to them. It was awesome! They were so appreciative and thought they looked great! But what I am most proud of is after being at Alex's house with Emily for a little while I called Sam and told him to come on over. For all of you who know the whole story know that this was a BIG step for me. I finally just realized that it would be okay. Sam hadn't been able to see them in a while and I knew he wanted to. We actually ended up staying there for quite a while. So far that is all that has happened on my Spring Break. Come Wednesday I get to leave again for Columbia. YAY!

I'm Back...

...and completely refreshed! Wow. It is amazing what 24 hrs can do to a girl! I had such a fantastic time in Columbia. I can not wait for it to finally be my home. Maybe then I will be happy all the time? :0/ I'll be seeing Chase everyday then! This weekend I just babysat Chase and enjoyed every single second I could with my adorable nehpew. Here are some pictures. I made sure to capture every moment that I could. ENJOY!

ROADTRIP!

I have finally found the one thing that will totally brighten up my day! A roadtrip! And that is exactly what I'll be doing tomorrow morning. I got home from school today and thought about how I really didn't have anything planned for my day off tomorrow. What better thing to do than to take a roadtrip with my bestie to Columbia, our future home? I get to spend quality time with my nephew, bro, and sis all while getting away from Hazelwood. I can not wait! So I will not be posting until I get back from my lovely get away. You can be sure that there will be ADORABLE pictures of my nephew when I get back. :0) See you Sunday!

Happy Snow Day!

So I was told from a very good friends of mine that I was neglecting my blog. When really, I've been thinking all day with what I had to write about. ha ha There really is not much. I am feeling so much better. I'm not sure what it was but it is gone. This snow day has been amazing. I have no done a single thing but take naps and chill. Unfortunately, I have a chem test tomorrow and prob should have studied but I just don't care right now. I'll eventually get around to it. Maybe after I watch some One Tree Hill because for once I don't have to work on Tuesday. Thank goodness! My nephew is doing so much better! His fever is gone and he went back to daycare. Not we just have to wait and hope he wont get another virus from another kid for a while. But now my boo is sick. :0( Sam has strew throat. So now our cute date tomorrow night is cancelled. Boo Hoo. I'm kinda sad. I was looking forward so spending some time with him. Well other than that life is just same as normal. Much better than it was a little while ago. Im still going to do Junior Miss. SO nervous about that! Hope everyone had a FANTASTIC snow day!

[P.S. I love my family]

Down in the Dumps

[i need to smile more like this]

I was looking at my blog this morning and I just realized. MAN Im so down in the dumps. I've got to cheer up. Chase will be okay. He has great people taking care of him. Scholarships will eventually get done and if not there is not much I can do. A deadline is a deadline. Homework will get finished. It always does. Junior Miss is supposed to be fun so I'm just going to try my hardest to get it done and hope for the the best. I have been looking forward to Senior year so much. Spending my last homecoming, last pep assembly, last prom, last everything with my class who I have been with for 6 years. Instead of taking everything in and enjoying my last year I have just been stressing and worrying about things that need to get done. So today Im going to go running before I go to work and get some of this stress off of me. Im ready to be happy. :0) You only live once and in less than 6 months I prob wont see half of the people I see everyday right now. So in the coming weeks Im going to try my hardest to get scholarships done, to get homework done, and pray that Chase gets better. Until then, Im just going to be happy!
