YOUR Help is Needed

Geoff and I spent the weekend in Idaho (which I will blog about it much detail soon), but first - we need your help. Saturday, Amanda, Scott, Geoff and I all carved pumpkins. We would like YOU, my loyal blog readers, to vote on the best pumpkin. The winner and the carver will be highlighted in a blog next week. (Vote on the right hand side of the blo...

So, yesterday was a long day.Alarm went off at 6:45am...I snoozed it until 7:15am. Climbed out of bed, got ready for work. Got to work at 8am. Put in my 8 hours (very productive and awesome hours if I do say so myself). Stopped by the Texaco to get soda from Geoff. Went home to retrieve my homework that I forgot to nab when I left in the morning and try to ignore the dogs downstairs and their excitement that I came home...because I really didn't....

It's also the time to prepare for next year. Budgeting and goal setting and reviewing the successes (or not-so-much) of the last year. Cue midterms and cold weather.Anyway, despite the hectic goings on in our lives, we are doing great.We have joined the worldwide scavenger hunt that is geocaching and are having a blast. Stay tuned for more info on that. Perhaps even a whole new blog...

Girls' Night Out

*Dislcaimer: I wish I had photos to go with this post. However, naturally, we did not take any.Friday, as usual, Geoff had to work the closing shift at work. So my super-amazing friends, Amanda and Latissa, took me out to dinner and a movie to celebrate the day of my birth. That's right, I got to go out TWICE. :)We went to Mimi's (which is always delish). The waiter made a bet that it was only my 20th birthday. So that was good.The girls gave me presents. Amanda gave me a fabulous watch that I absolutely adore (I was telling her earlier, though,...

Birthday Surprises

Yesterday, as you are likely aware, was my twenty-third birthday. I am a girl who really has everything she needs...and practically everything she wants. So, when Geoff asked me what I wanted for my birthday, try as I might, I could not come up with anything. I mean, I always want clothes and shoes and purses...but I didn't picture any of those items bringing him any joy to give me (and I really think the greatest part about getting a gift is the...

Twenty-Three

Well, today is the magic day. The day that my mom and I have our magical 3 months of halves/doubles. I'm am exactly half her age today.I'm very grateful that 23-years ago today she birthed me. And I'm glad it was her, of all people. She's the best mom ever. And she married the best dad for me. I'm a pretty lucky kid.Luckier still because this morning she graced me with a BLUE BOX. I'm wearing a Tiffany bracelet as I type this. Fantastic.I'm not sure...
