I had a great time over Thanksgiving break. Scott had to work most of the time so I did not see him much. Sara came home with me, and we had a great time together. We made Christmas cards, shopped like crazy, picked out our menu for Scott’s and my wedding (Scott and my mom went too), saw Prime at the movies, watched two tense movies at home, went to Grammy and Papa’s to play cards with Graham (and my parents), went to dinner with our friend Jen (Red Hot!), and of course we ate and had fun with my family on Thanksgiving day. Gabe was the main focus of our attention on Thanksgiving day. He is too cute and so sweet! He has a new play area in the basement that he loves and is very nice. Thanksgiving night Scott, Sara, Elias, Jen, and I watched WIlly Wonka on their big screen. It was awesome!
I am now back at school needing to do homework and not wanting to. I think I am going to get into full swing of it tomorrow. Tonight I am going to relax.

My first AWESOME bridal shower!

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005

On Sunday my good friends Lindsay and Sara threw me a bridal shower! It was a blast. There were a bunch of undies, from friends, hanging up that I had to guess who they were from, when I first got there. I then opened presents that other friends brought me! Everyone was so sweet…I got 31 pairs total!! WOW…no laundry for a month!
Next there was a huge heart pinnate that we hit! After doing that I answered questions about Scott that he had answered. The cool thing about it was that they had taped him answering the questions so we knew exactly what he said! For each questions I missed I had to chew Bubblicious Gum. I missed 7 questions and could barely talk at the end. I answered a question about toothpaste right and Scott answered it wrong. He said he used Aquafresh and I said Collgate because I was with him the day before when he bought it!! Another question was,”What was the first Blink-182 song you played for Scott?” I’m disappointed in myself for not remembering that answer!
There were so many treats at the shower it was wonderful. There was a matt for everyone to sign that will go with the picture we took of all of us that day. Everyone also wrote a sweet note to me and stuck it in a piggy bank for me to always have. There were really cute party favors with candy that Rachel had sent for the shower! It was such an awesome shower! Lindz and Sara did SOOOOO MUCH for me! I have such great friends!

The First of The Last!

Monday, November 21st, 2005

Today I took my first final this semester of my last set of college finals I’ll ever take! My M/W/F 8 A.M class is over! Actually, that was my last written final. The rest are all projects. Now I’m going to celebrate by working on homework!

These are a few of my favorite things…

polka-dots

flying pigs

Today Scott and I went to Des Moines. I got very excited in J.Crew when I saw these cute pants to sleep in. I LOVE the pink polka dots. I think those are my favorite pants out of the two. The other pants have flying pigs on them, which is so cool. Now all J.Crew needs to get is pants with Blink-182 written all over them and they will then have my favorite things: Blink, pink, polka dots and pigs!

Class is cancelled!

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

This week has been great. My math methods class was cancelled on Monday and today my four hour long class was cancelled. Tomorrow my class management class is cancelled! I have been able to get a lot of homework done, which is so nice. That’s about all my good news for now.

Birthday Celebrations!

cake

This weekend was great. I went home Thursday, so it started early! Friday I babysat during the day and at night Scott and I went to the Plaza to celebrate his birthday. We had so much fun. We ate at P.F. Changs and walked around. One cool thing was that we got free dessert from Cold Stone. They were passing out big samples of cheesecake and when Scott saw they did not have the ice cream he wanted we decide the cake was enough!! The guy gave it to us before we knew we were not going to buy anything.
On Saturday morning we went to First Watch with my parents to celebrate Scott’s birthday, and then we went to Williams Sonoma to get Scott’s birthday present from my parents. Right after that we went to the Li’s to celebrate Gabe’s birthday. He’s so cute! Gabe did not like his birthday cake so Jen gave him cheese to make him happy! That night Scott, my parents, and Grammy and Papa went to the Olive Garden to celebrate Scott’s birthday again! He’s had a lot of celebrations. We then went to our house and had “birthday cake.” It was a fun weekend of celebrating birthdays!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GABE!!
