Tara's Super Fun 26th Birthday Slumber Party

ell as promised i has a pretty busy weekend and beginning of my vacation. Saturday was Tara's slumber party and boy did we have a good time. There were to be expected up to 13 people but lucky for us they didn't all come at the same time so the party never felt over crowded. We had all the typical slumber party goods. TONs of candy and chips and we ordered pizza all that along with many drinks and shots and we were well over junk the next day! We played a bunch of fun games: Dream Date, twister, Apples to apples. and watched girly movies! Of course we watched twilight that night (and again the next morning!) and we watched slumber party! We all wore PJs and had a great time laughing with each other! over all I'm pretty sure the party was a success!

I'm IT!!!

She is having an old school slumber party which will be so much fun! the Sunday (easter) tara debbie krisint and i are going to forks.. AGAIN! i know crazy right! Tara has just started reading the books and so she wants to go really bad... Debbie and I should become offical Forks tour guides and charge per hr! Then Mat and i have vacation all week in which we don't really have anything planned. I'm hoping that one day we can go somewhere maybe a day trip or something? Next Saturday is mat's birthday party... We are going to see Doug Benson at the Moore theater then head oer to game works and then staying in a hotel so we don't have to drive back home after a long night! it will all be alot of fun... i'm excited! So hopefully i'll have alot to write about coming up soon! So instead i thought i'd leave a a slide show with random pictures.. .enjoy!

i almost forgot

Well silly me i almost forgot that i need to post about Debbie and mines trip to v]Vancouver BC. it was such a great trip! The hotel we stayed in was nice enough i pretty much liked it and it was right above the street fair they were having on Grandville. The street fair really made the trip fun and exciting because there were so many people for people watching. We dined at a couple pretty good restaurant and really enjoyed just wondering around the city. We did do some shopping but the malls didn't really have many stores we were interested in or that we could afford. lol Also they were way confusing and hard to navigate! During all of our wondering we did have our eyes open for any Robert Pattinson spotting's. we even messaged him on twitter a few times (which blew up in our face but we won't get into that!) We did some drinking and wondering on the streets at nigth which can always cause some great entertainment... like three guys linked together singing on the top of their lungs in french for like 6 block! I got a WONDERFUL crape on the street side. it was filled with nutella and bananas! HEAVEN! i can't wait to go back just for those! i think I'll try another filling next time ... i always get that one!
Over all it was great trip besides finding out the next day that Robert Pattinson was at the street fair concert we decided we didn't want to pay $20 to get into and Debbie getting blocked from his twitter! lol

just a normal day

Well the last couple days have gone by pretty well. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesdays can be pretty hard because i have to work at 4 am but this week i kept myself kinds busy so that i wouldn't come home and sit on the couch and just hope not to fall asleep. Monday night we had a fancy dinner party at Kristin's house. She made such a yummy dinner of stuffed chicken, mashed potatoes, asparagus and garlic bread! it was all very yummy but my favorite part was being able to spend time with all my favorite girls! it was the last day before Laura went back to school (well started at UW bothell anyways... pretty exciting GO LAURA!) Tara is on her spring break now so it was nice to be able to see her and give her the last 3 twilight books for her enjoyment! we laughed and talked and had a merry time!
Yesterday after work i went to get my nails done with Linnea! It was really great to hang out with her and i wish we would have been able to hang out longer (not really sure y we didn't actually) She is also in school and works two jobs so she is one of my friends i really feel like i don't see often enough! She is such a driven girl and so responsible that she rarely has free time! She is in Vegas this weekend for her best friends wedding which is also a reason we haven't hung out in a while... weddings are all consuming u know! But it was nice to be able to hang out with her for a little while getting out nails done! now i have nice finger and toe nails! i feels so girly!
Today was pretty simple day came home straight after work and watched TV with mat for a little while before he had to head to work... i decided to take a nap so that i would be able to stay up later with him when he gets off! i really try HARD to make sure we get time together. i know that working such opposite schedules can really cause a couple to drift apart and i never want that to happen to us.. of course all my afford sometimes blow up in my face when i get all excited to hang out with him and things don't go as imagined and i get all upset IE: he comes home from work and he is on the computer for hrs! but i am trying to roll with the punches and take the time i can get!
