A lot of Fun!

Meredee & Anna came up to visit me this weekend!!!! We were supposed to go camping, but because of all of this rain, we decided to postpone that. Heather, Chelsea, Anna & I went to lunch at Ruby Tuesdays and then we all played Disney Scene It while we waited for Meredee to arrive. Once Meredee got here, we all went to dinner and then we went to see The Proposal with some of Anna's friends.
We all went to bed late and then slept until lunch on Saturday. After lunch, Anna had to go home and a few hours late Meredee also had to go home. We had a lot of fun and laughs! They are totally awesome and I can't wait until they move back in the fall.
Another big bonus of the weekend was that I got to spend time with Chelsea. She took off work to hang out with us and I had a lot of fun chilling with her.
Meredee, Chelsea, and Heather all convinced me that these hats look good on me and so I bought a couple and Chelsea tried one on and decided that she didn't like it on her, but I thought it looked good on her.
Heather also tried it on!
We had our apartment all cleaned up before Anna & Meredee came and once they left, we had a meal at home (since all of the others were eaten out all weekend) and then looked over our not so clean apartment.

Good Times with the Family

Thursday was Chase's birthday! He turned 11 year old can you believe it? We had dinner at Mandarin Gardens as a family (well, except Chelsea and plus Heather). We laughed and had a great time! Chase's fortune cookie said that we would travel far and come into a fortune! Mine said that I would be rewarded for my patience and understanding which my dad informed me that I must show before I can be rewarded! :) Then we had cake which we put Magic candles on so Chase was a bit confused when they were sparking and wouldn't go out. We had to get creative wrapping his presents so they were wrapped in Mary Kay makeup boxes! He got money and twizzlers from my parents and candy and money from me and money from Chelsea. He really did come into a fortune! He is loaded now! I held my first 4-H club meetings on Thursday as well and I thought they went pretty good. The kids made Chocolate Chip Cookies! Yum!!

It's been a while

Sorry! It has been a while. I have been busy doing stuff for practicum, working, painting apartments, and spending time with family & friends. The Griffiths family gets together for Memorial Day breakfast, then I went over to the zoo with the kids. It was so fun! Alyssa kept saying "Awesome!" everytime she saw a different animal.
I have been putting in quite a few hours in preparing for sewing camp which was this week. Chase and mom came on beginning day. I think Chase had a lot of fun. Then Tuesday and today was the advanced sewers. The beginners did a full apron, chef's hat and a hot pad. Chase had soccer fabric.
The summer has started out busy, but it has been fun so far! Only more fun and exciting things to come this summer!
