Hey there…

So, I haven’t been blogging that much recently. Here I thought that since it was summer and I don’t have any classes to worry about, that I’d get to blog more. Well, apparently I’ve been busier than I thought I would be. Sunday night and Monday night, 2 of my cousins spent the night and I just took them home last night. Now I have to work until 3 today and then my fiance and I are going to my aunt and uncle’s house for a 4th of July cookout. Then tomorrow I work a 12 hour shift, Friday work 4 hours, Saturday I work another 12 hours, and on Sunday I work 4 and a half. So I’m going to be pretty busy the next few days!!! It stinks that there are only 2 days out of the next 4 days that I can actually swim in my pool. But oh well, next week I’ll be able to swim in it everyday except for Sunday (another 12 hour shift).

I love all these 12 hour shifts I’m getting!!! The more money on my paycheck means the more I’ll have extra to put in the wedding account!!!! We are about 10 months away and there are still tons to do!!! The only things we have done is pick the venue and our photographer. Oh and I have my dress!! So there is still tons to do!!!! I need to start looking at things and see what can be done this summer because once the fall starts, I’m going to be busy with student teaching.

Well, I guess that’s about all for now. Please leave me your comments with what you would like to see more of on my blog. Happy 4th of July!! Have fun and be safe!!!

4th of July Weekend Recap

So since it was the 4th of July weekend, I decided to wait until now to do my recap so I could tell you about what I did today, the 4th of July!

Friday night was just a night that I got to catch up on some blogs and my fiancé played a game on his computer. There wasn’t too much excitement in the place that night.

Saturday I worked all day until 4. Then, my step-mom and her sister’s grandma was down from CT so we went down to my aunt’s house for dinner. Hot dogs and hamburgers…yummy!!! After that, me, my fiancé, my uncle, and 2 cousins went to Game Stop and stopped for fireworks on the way home. Then it was back to their house for game night!!

Then on Sunday I had to work yet again. I don’t know why, but the customer’s were extra annoying yesterday. They just bugged me so much!! But, at 4:00 my shift was finally over! I thought the day would never end!!! My fiancé and I then went down to my dad and step-mom’s house for dinner. I love how I didn’t have to cook at all this weekend!!! After dinner we went down to my aunt’s house and did fireworks. One of my favorite parts of the night was this: so it was way past my cousins’ bedtime and the one was getting really tired cause she was in a grumpy mood. Well, she went around the side of the house so to get her back behind the house, my step-mom goes, “We found a sparkler!” We had told her that we were out of them (when really we weren’t). As soon as my step-mom said that, she goes, “Sparkler?!?!” and we heard her running back into the backyard! It was just hilarious!! She really loves sparklers!

Here is the picture we get every year of me and my fiancé holding sparklers!

Here is our first 4th of July together back in 2009 (I had to cut out my ex-best friend and her bf from the picture)

  And then here was last years picture

Then today, I had to work 11-8. And let me tell you, it was a really long day!!! But, I made it through and made it home in time to go see fireworks at 9:30. So now I’m at home, just relaxing. My feet are really killing me!! I’m gonna catch up on some blog posts (which I feel like I’m always doing) before going to bed so I’m all rested up for work tomorrow.

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July!!!! Have a great week!!! And don’t forget to enter my giveaway for My Lip Stuff.

A room a week- end of week 1

Well, week 1 of my “a room a week” failed. I didn’t get to clean up the dining room at all. (Check out this post if you’re not sure what I’m talking about.) But, I’m just going to continue with my schedule that I made up for myself last week so the next room is the bathroom. The sink area is cluttered with stuff so it definitely needs cleaned up a bit. I will post next Sunday to let you know how I did!! Have a great 4th of July everyone!!! My weekend recap will be posted tonight!!
