What I've Been Up To...

Well I have been very busy so I haven't had time to update in a while but this is what I've been up to...

• Have welcomed 2 new baby cousins in to the world. Hadyen Elizabeth (girl) and Kaden Cole (boy). They were born 7 weeks early and both weighed under 4 pounds. Both are still in the hospital but we are able to go see them still. Hopefully they will be home before Christmas.
• Had a great thanksgiving. Enjoyed lots of turkey with all of my family. Even my sister came down from college.
• My brother came into town for the thanksgiving weekend. I got to see my niece and meet my future nieces and nephew. My brother is getting married the last week in December and his fiance has 2 twin girls and a son. (needless to say between the twins and the nieces and nephew my family has grown a lot since the last update)
• Josh and I went out shopping the day after Thanksgiving. We usually go but this year we decided to go to Best Buy at 5 am for the opening. Not to shop though just to see the crazy people that stood in the line all night. By the time we got to Target we decided to was too cold to wait and that we were hungry so we went and got breakfast and then continue shopping.
• School is still dragging. I have came to the conclusion that this school is not all that it was cracked up to be when I went on my initial tour. Very unorganized and the entire staff has changed since I have been there. So heads up...anyone thinking about attending Euphoria Institute don't go to Green Valley campus. Who knows the other locations may be better.
• Enjoying the Christmas season. I love Christmas. I wish it could last longer. I love the lights, gifts, shopping, family get together, and the events put on around town. My favorite is the Magical Forest at Opportunity Village.
• Today I decorated my station at school with lights, garland, and little tree. I'll post a picture later. It is very simple but still cute.

...And that's what I've been to.

FYI

I was on barnesandnoble.com tonight looking for some books that I am going to put on my christmas list and I found out that it cost the exact same price (including shipping) as it does buying it in the store. Online they offer a 30% discount off the regular price of the book and that is about how much shipping adds up to be making it really close to the same price. I figured this would help those who hate going out with the crowds during the holidays or just dont have time to make it to the bookstore in the mist of everything else and would rather it come right to your door step.

Just An Update!

I haven't blogged in a while so I figured I would give an update on what's been going on starting back from Halloween.

• Halloween was not as fun as it used to be. I loved seeing the little kids all dressed up, eating the candy that I was suppose to be passing out, and eating my mom's famous homemade mac 'n' cheese (a Halloween tradition).
• Held a cut-a-thon on the 1st of the month.
• Tried going to the movies both weekends but haven't had much luck there.
• Went to a juice tasting party. The juice was called Mona Via. It was made of 16 different juices and is suppose to be the best thing for you. I didn't like the taste though. It was healthy and I didn't like it. Imagine that?
• Have gone to the gym. Probably only once though since my last post. I'm not as disciplined as Josh.
• Got my hair colored and cut. Love the color. The cuts a little short but the ends really needed to be cut and its just hair it will grow back.
• Meet with the registar at my school. Found out my graduation date is February 19th. I am able to make up a total of 64 hours though. After those are made up my graduation date will be February 7th. It couldn't come any sooner. The sooner I graduate the sooner I get to go to Disneyland. (that is my graduation gift from my parents!!)
• I have had pretty much all my clients not show up or cancel within the past 2 weeks. I finally had a good turn out yesterday. These 2 clients were 2 of the best I have had since I've been in school. Made $35 in tips and they were just so much fun to talk to and hang out with. And better yet...their hair turned out good!!
• Went to a jewelry party. I wish I was rich because I would have bought some stuff. The line was really expensive. The host had some really good food though.
• Went bowling with Jeff and Amber. Josh beat me the first game and I was just warming up that round to win the second.

Besides all this it has just been school and work and that is all!!

And the MVP goes to...

...My sister, Kalah.

Just wanted to tell her congratulations on completing her first season of college soccer. She is up in Carson City on a soccer scholarship to Western Nevada College. She had an awesome season. She had her name in the city newspaper a few times acknowledging her talent playing every position possible. They lost the regional championship game yesterday to Idaho but still made out for a good season.

Today I...

*Woke up

* Made candy sushi (a Rachel Ray recipe)

*Went over to my grandparents house for a birthday party and pumpkin carving

(Happy Birthday Grandpa!! )

(Brandi, Tarin, Ryan, and Sabrina)

(Hard Core Pumpkin Carvers)

(Our finished products. Mine is the one with the hair. I have to fix it though.)

*Watched my Grandma feed her birds

(I couldn't believe how many regulars she had)

*Went to Target to buy Scene It Squabble (it's a game)

*Went to the Sedillo's house for a family game night (it was the 1st time we had combined the 2 families just for fun...we had a good time...hope to do it again!!)

*Came home and am going to go to bed

WE MISSED YOU TODAY KALAH!!

Act 2 of KC The Human Dog

A few days ago I was in the bathroom getting ready for school and when I got back to my room this is what I saw. My dog had got on my bed, climbed underneath the sheets, and laid her head down on my pillow. For those of you who don't know, my dog is not allowed on my bed because of the dog hair. KC knows she is not allowed on my bed too but apparently she thought she would be funny and pull a quick one since I wasn't watching. I'm telling you this dog is something else!

My New "Night"light

My mom went on a shopping spree and bought me the coolest little night light. It has a little light built in so it's not replaceable but when it gets hot it makes the water and glitter in the flask boil. It's so cute because it looks as if the witch is cooking up something in her little cauldron. I just love it!! I thought it was funny that it's called a "night"light but it can't be kept on over night due to the boiling water. Why is it called a nightlight then?!?
