:D

Well I am ABSOLUTELY thrilled to be blogging again because my internet has NOT been working for the last WHO KNOWS how long. It works for a few minutes and then stops working. It is so depressing. But it has ACTUALLY been working for a few hours tonight so I am finally loading all my engagement pictures on facebook :). Unfortunately it is taking FOREVER to load the last 5....but I won't give up! I will be patient...and wait ...and wait...and wait :). I had a GREAT wk with friends this week! :). On Monday Alyssa and I went to the mall & I got some amazing deals. Surprisingly I bought NO clothes...that's a first for me. Alyssa and I went to East Side Mario's for lunch. We both ordered sandwiches off the lunch menu and with the sandwich it said we had a choice of salad, fries, or soup. We both picked caesar salad and then asked how much it was to order a garlic bread. The waitress told us the bread comes with it at no extra charge. So we got two loaves of garlic bread...and a MASSIVE bowl of salad. (we were supposed to only have a single serving each) Once we finished the salad, the waitress asked if we wanted more...then she brought us our sandwiches...with FRIES! Somehow we ended up with WAY more food than we ordered. We thought she maybe thought we ordered off the dinner menu or something but sure enough our bill came and we weren't over charged... hmmm...we still aren't sure how we ended up with SO much extra food but I'm not complaining :). On Tuesday Jenna came over for a few hours and we caught up on the last few months. (I hadn't seen her for quite a few months). On Wednesday Joy & I went to the beach! The water was ABSOLUTELY FREEZING...so we didn't even swim. We walked in the water up to our knees and stood there until I got goosebumps...it was SERIOUSLY cold. We talked about EVERY possible THING to talk about... :). We talked about weddings...and babies...and weddings...and babies...and then I educated her on CPR ...ha ha ha :) Today I met Shannon at Starbucks and we talked and talked and talked. (I have done ALOT of talking this wk...lol) Starbucks has some deal going on where you bring your receipt from the morning back to them after 2 and you can get a grande cold drink for 2 dollars...I have NEVER gone to starbucks twice in one day...but it was a good deal! lol...I did share it with my mom though...;)..so I don't feel COMPLETELY guilty...My mom and I shopped this afternoon and she bought me some awesome stuff to make cards with. I LOVE making cards :). She also bought me Wendy's for dinner! I love her so much! Not just because she buys me stuff ....but she is such a giver...she really is. This Saturday I leave for vacation for a week with Jonny's family :)
