Headed home

Happy Thanksgiving

What a great day today.

We spent the day with our best friends, Michelle and Jason. They live out in the beautiful country in a gorgeous house, and Michelle whipped up an INCREDIBLE dinner! But hold your breath everybody....cause guess what??!! I cooked something!! And it was DELICIOUS! My mom's recipe for sweet potato casserole. so yummy.

While we were waiting for the turkey to get finished we went on a beautiful hike in Cane Creek Park.

This is me and Michelle swingin old school

And this is us enjoying our INCREDIBLE dinner on their back patio enjoying the unbelievable weather we were having today!

Game results of the day:

I beat Spencer at Battleship (twice)

Vanquishing evil

In no way do I condone, support, or recommend mindless video gaming for hours on end...

It still looks dark in the picture..but trust me...it's not.

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year...almost

If it was up to Spencer we would start decorating for Christmas in July. We can compromise, however, and almost decorated the day after Halloween, but I was able to hold him back an extra week or two and got it done last Sunday. I love our tree. We bought it for $99 from Target in 2002 in Austin, TX and look how beautiful it still looks today. And I love the village on our fireplace mantel.

Goodbye my love

Hellooooooo car I don't know how to drive....

bloody stick shifts

we sold my baby. She was getting old...and with Spencer working from home and NEVER driving his car we decided to sell the non-warranty having car and keep the brand new non-gas guzzling stick shift that I don't know how to drive.

Finally!

I'M REGISTERED!!! i snagged the last seat in my computers class and registration had only been open for 5 minutes. I feel like I won the lottery.

My schedule will have me occupied Monday and Thursday (sorry MM) evenings for a few hours, so don't bother me, starting Jan 12th on those nights.

WHAT'S THAT??!! A FREE GYM??!!

It just might be that I am more excited about having access to a free FITNESS CENTER than I am about taking classes. It really is a toss up.

So my counselor is so awesome! I could have talked with her for hours!! I register first thing tomorrow morning. Im taking a computers class, Intro to Paralegal Law, and Accounting. That is if I can find times for all those classes. I can only attend classes on Monday and Wednesday nights so let's cross our fingers!

A little perspective

Spencer and I just watched the movie "When a Stranger Calls". You know how I was nervous about meeting with my counselor for school tomorrow and going back to school? Well, there's nothing like a little perspective to ease my nerves. School isn't ANYTHING to be nervous about...it's babysitting that is now my real cause for concern.

Peer Pressure

My life this past week has been mentally exhausting, and physically boring. Meaning, I haven't really done anything AT ALL, except sweat about my upcoming interview with my college counselor this Tuesday, and pray that Gog and Magog will happen while I'm in Cabo so I can stay there with my family for longer than 2 weeks.

That would be the extent of this post, except that I was tagged by ANGELA, so in succumbing to peer pressure, here is my 4th picture in my 4th folder. It is a picture of the cutest gramps EVER! Actually, it's my dad..but doesn't he look like the cutest grandpa!


Okay...I tag JANNA!! (and really anyone else who wants to play)

"SPACEBALLS,

OH SH*#. There goes the planet."

Early Election

on Friday night
