Soooooo

Wow, I really fell off the blogging bandwagon. I hate how life gets so busy and so many of things I really try to do fall to the side. But, I promise a legit post is coming (hopefully tomorrow) about my birthday, spring break, my wonderful friends, flat tires, gamma functions, and life in general. But right now I must get my life re-organized and whatnot so I can actually get enrolled in classes for the fall and not fail out of college. Love you bloggy friends! Get pumped for the very exciting photo posts to come :)

Hometown Tour...Deep in the Heart of Texas (Well kind of)


Howdy partners! That's my best Texas greeting and actually I didn't hear a single person say that this weekend but I'm sure they do say it sometimes, not to be stereotypical. So Friday post-chicken finger we loaded up and headed to Texarkana. We obviously stopped at Sonic once we got there and then proceeded to Kat's house where her mom had some snacks for us and dinner, super yummy. We hung out there with her family until we crashed later that night. Saturday we went over to Nat's house and began our adventure into nature. Nat's dad took us out on their boat and we went down the Caddo River on the boat. It was SO much fun, it was a gorgeous day and we had a blast on the hour long boat ride. We stopped in Jefferson where we ate lunch at this biker hang out and then walked around the town. We then reloaded the boat and headed back to T-town. It was so nice to be able to be outside all day. We ate at Nat's house on Saturday and caught up on last week's Grey's. My happy moment for the day is the BEAUTIFUL weather. I love SUNSHINE!

Hometown Tour (T-Town Edition)


DISCLAIMER: Guest blogging is still to occur at some unannounced date.

DISCLAIMER 2: Sorry for not posting in so long. Between tests and work and Internet issues life's been crazy.


Regular Post:

Hey peeps! Long time no blog! Sorry about that (see disclaimer above). So I am so excited this weekend we are road tripping to Texarkana, TX. After our trip to Conway last semester for the Little Rock game (which we didn't make it to) we decided we should really do a hometown tour of everyone's hometowns. So this weekend we are heading to Texarkana to see Natalie and K. Ward's hometown :) I can't wait I just love seeing where people are from. Plus, pretty much everyone is going which is pretty stinking exciting since I don't think all of us have been together in what feels like forever. So on Friday Sgibs, Nat, Kat, Chan, Dan, and I are all loading up and heading down to kick it in T-Town. I'll definitely do a post after the weekend to let you know how it goes. On another note, last weekend was Mom's weekend and my mom came up which was a blast. I love Mom's weekend! I have to admit I broke off the Panama plan when mom and I discovered how yummy Bliss cupcakes our. Bliss is located on the square and since we had to be down there for Greek Sing (which was wonderful, btw) we just had to stop in and get some. I love cupcakes they are just so HAPPY! My happy moment for today is that I am pretty much free from here on out which is exciting and my happy moment for the past couple days is that even though my car is in the shop (Big Red was sick) my sweet friends have been so kind to tote me around. Hope everyone has a happy Thursday and expect a picture post/update on the weekend soon.

Intro to my Guest Blogger....

Hey bloggy peeps! So tomorrow's the big day when Schuett is my special guest blogger. I guess I should introduce you to Schuett before she blognaps my blog tomorrow. Let's see where should I begin....I met Katie (that's Schuey's real name, well actually if we are going to get technical her real name is Katherine) during flag football season last year through B. Nash. I had to add the picture of me and Britt because 1) She hadn't had a pic on the blog in a while and she is one of my most loyal blog readers (Hi Britt!) 2) She was the first Chi O I met thanks to her cousin being my gamma chi 3) We've been roommates for two semesters now and this is probably only our 3rd picture ever.Okay, now that I've finished that spill. Katie is going to blognap tomorrow and chat it up about whatever while I blognap her blog to do my thing. Katie is probably the funniest person you will EVER meet. She continually has me cracking up, sometimes when we're talking I seriously feel like I'm talking to myself because we are so similar (for example our extreme love of Christmas and owl pajamas, enough said). So that's about all for today, my happy moment for today goes to getting a postcard from Kayln from Japan. I love snail mail, almost as much as I love hearing from her! Love ya'll lots!

I've Got A Pocketful, Pocketful of Sunshine


Hello world! I have missed you dearly, the blogosphere has been a little low on my priority list this past week, which is so unfortunate since it was my new year's resolution to document 2010. Let's see what all I have been up to since we last chatted. When I first logged on tonight I thought it had been a week since I updated but I just realized that it has only been 4 days which makes me feel a little better. So let's see, on Friday my groups rolled out with some stellar presentations. We had Big Red come in to our class for Selling and Sales to assist with our presentation, which was a huge hit with our class and teacher. So after that Kara and I hit the road for Cway. Most of my friends were heading home for the weekend and since last weekend's trip seemed a little short since I got home so late I figured why not make a hair appointment and head home. We had a little jam session the whole way home and caught up on life in general which was great. It's so strange to go from living with someone everyday for two years to having to actually schedule hang out time. I got my haircut on Friday afternoon, which was definitely my happy moment for that day. I love my hairdresser, she rocks and I always love the way my hair looks afterwards. On Saturday, the whole family loaded up and went to the races in Hot Springs. Jake and I hadn't ever been before and it was a blast, I just love my family. Mom and I were talking about it later how we feel so sad for people who don't enjoy spending time with their families because we all just have so much fun together. I think part of the reason I love weekends at home has to go to the consistency of Sundays, I love waking up on Sundays knowing exactly where we will sit at church, knowing that I will almost always being running 5 minutes later than I should be, knowing Jacob will be mad because I wasn't ready on time, knowing that we will eat Cracker Barrel afterwards, and that I'll then get to come home and change into my bumming clothes. All in all, it was a wonderful weekend and my happy moment for today goes to coming back and being reunited with the "group." I just love my friends, they are just so stinkin' wonderful I don't know how I ever lived without them. I know this was a long post but one last thing: On Tuesday I have a very special treat for all my bloggy friends, Katie Schuett is going to guest blog!!!

Blur of a Post

So I never thought that finding time to blog would be this difficult. I wish I had some great excuse for it but in all honesty blogging just fell to the bottom of the importance pile. Here's an update on my life since we last talked. I went home late Friday night to surprise my mom for her birthday which was Saturday. It was great! She was super excited and I was thrilled to be home, even if it was just a flying trip. We went on Saturday and ate breakfast at Stoby's which pretty much made my day and then to top if off Mom and I went and got pedicures! I just love when my toes have a fresh shiny coat of polish. I went for a spring color so when I look down I can pretend its summer time. Sunday we all went to church and out to lunch at Cracker Barrell. I've pretty much spent the last two days just studying and working on group projects. This is kind of a quick thrown together post without pictures, but a little is better than nothing. I don't have anything school related tonight so I'll try to do a cute, fun post then. Oh and here's my list of happy moments for the past couple days, getting mail from my mom and dad (it had a sonic card in there!!), having a thank-you on the thank-you sheet this week (thanks Fargo!), getting to spend the two hour ride to Conway catching up with Meagan, and being able to make a haircut appointment on such short notice for this weekend! Talk to you soon (promise this time).

Dry Shampoo, My BFF


Hey bloggy friends. Today is one of those fun blog posts I've been telling you I would eventually write. So I don't know have many of you have been introduced to the wonderful world of dry shampoo. I made this life-changing discovery in the fall and let me tell you, dry shampoo is the bomb dot com. Let me explain this wonderful world of dry shampoo. Basically, dry shampoo is like baby powder on steroids. You just spray a little bit on the "less than fresh" spots of your hair and let it sit for a few minutes then rub it in. It is so awesome, I mean who has time to deal with washing and drying your hair every day. I know this isn't exactly deep reading here but I promise you, try the shampoo and fall in love with it, it is one of the most life changing discoveries ever. Well that's pretty much all I have for today, I'll post my happy moment later :) Happy Friday friends!!
