I feel "in" and "hip"...

Hello Friends,

So, Today we took a big leap..

we are now "in" with the gaming crowd.

We got a Xbox 360 w/Kinect

It came with the game Kinect Adventures 

But i cant play it till after Xmas ;)

All i can really do on my xbox so far,

is dink around on xbox live.

The xbox it technically a xmas gift.

So I gotta chill a bit..

which is hard.

There are so many xbox game that i want!

Ive been good Santa I swear!

These are the ones ive got my eye on- 

How fun huh?!

Dont judge, I love harry potter.

and I actually really enjoy playing NCAA :)

I guess i gotta start savin up money for a xbox game fund..haha

But until after xmas, Ill still play my 

Dreamcast

Nintendo 64

and Playstation 1

They've been good to me :)

<3

Ive been busy today...

Hello Friends-

So today I slept in for a while, 

and cleaned for a while,

then i began crafting!

Today I taught myself how to crochet,

oh gee. Im not very good at it.

I have lots of practicing 

ahead of myself!

These are some random things I made,

and Like i said, not pretty. haha

After i decided enough of that,

I started my recipe book!

Im gonna start collecting recipes 

from my family and friends 

and anything else that sounds good :)

So someday when im out on my own,

ill have them already! 

Isnt it cute?! 

Now i gotta start filling it up!

Anyone got any good recipes?! 

Let the writing begin! :)

Happy Day After Thanksgiving/Black Friday!

Hello Friends-

Holy cow.. 

I haven't written a blog in forever

Boo me! haha 

Instead ive done a lot of crafts, worked, and watched movies.

Lots have gone down 

since the last time I wrote..

like Thanksgiving and Black Friday

Boy howdy was that fun?!

I ate lots of yummy food at the boyfriends house

and went shopping at walmart at 3:30am

It was so Chaotic! 

but my dad got a 19inch tv and i got some xmas shopping done!

BUT

here's my latest thought...

and it has nothing to do with turkey day or black friday.

Since im on this new

 awesome crafting kick..

Im thinkin about gettin rid of the twin size bed in my room downstairs,

and replacing it with a crafting table.

I wanna fix up my mamas sewing machine.

and then i wanna go to town!!

I have SO many crafts

 i wanna learn to do! 

Here's a couple that

 ive had my eyes on- 

1. cute framed phrases! I wanna redecorate my room walls!

2. I want to learn to crochet flowers! 

so i can put them on my hats/scarfs I make!

3. I want to knit/crochet 

a laptop sleeve.

with cute little buttons and flaps!

4. I have NO idea what I

would do with these,

But they are adorable! 

Perhaps the kids i watch would like them?

5. I want to make fabric flower garlands, 

I want to make them in fun green fabrics.

and hang them in my room!

6. Since ive been surrounded by the holiday foods lately,

i really want to put together

 a cute recipe book.

So that someday, down the road, ill have them!

Well,

There ya have it.

those are the crafts that are on my mind.

now if only i could get organized enough to start some!

Ill keep yall posted with out it goes!

<3

Very talented musicians fo sho!!!

Kinda makes me wish i had stuck to my violin a bit more..haha

BUT - 

Thats not what I really want to write about...

Guess what joined us today?!

The first snow! :( 

BOO!!!!

                                         

There is so much of it outside! BOO!

i was supposed to have plans tomorrow, so i hope it all melts away!

I swear, we skipped fall, darn nebraska weather! haha

I literally wore shorts on monday to work, and now there is like 2 or more inches of snow outside!

CRAZY!

anyone else not a big fan of winter?

BOO SNOW! haha 

the only thing thats a plus of the snow, is sledding.

but i doubt itll last long enough at the moment to go sledding. haha 

So lets all just pray that it goes away, thatd be better.

Im gonna go back to watching avatar, and cozying up in my snuggie.

With the hopes of waking up tomorrow with a snow free ground! :)

Ive been bitten!

Hey Friends-

So you may be asking, what have you been doing since you last wrote..

cuz we havent seen much of you lately..haha..

Well, Ive been bitten,

 by the crafting bug. 

I made play dough, we made baby bows, and ive been knitting up a storm!

Over the past 2 days, ive made 6 baby hats, and 3 kids hats.

Now im making adult hats, 

they take much longer. haha 

I have so many friends that

 want hats made now.

Geeze, im gonna be knitting till my fingers fall off =)

but im ok with it.

So, with that being said, i need to go back to that now.

<3

Ooops, I did it again..

Hello Friends-

Oops, im behind again on my blogging.

but thats ok i suppose,

 not really sure if anyone 

actually reads these or not..haha

But lots has happened lately..

Well 1st, there was 

the Husker Game with B <3

I got to spend a day with Brett and watch something he loves almost more than me, Husker football ;)

and we kicked mizzou's booooty =) 

Then sunday was Halloween =)

I had a pretty good day, I got to spend the afternoon and evening with Brett and some other church friends.

Went to evening church, you could tell the little kids there were antsy to get out and trick or treat..well all except ava, who fell asleep on me during church. 

But afterwards, we took the kids

 around the church's neighborhood to trick or treat

 and then went over to Sonic for 50 cent corndogs! I think between all of the families, we ate probably around 60 corndogs! 

After that, a group of us went to bretts house and watched SAW. 

I had never seen the 1st one, so i was a little creeped out. haha but Id say it was a successful halloween! 

And that leads me to todays adventures..

Everything was pretty normal until i was about to leave work, when something rather unfortunate happened.

Jamie and I were locking up at work, so we were taking the trash out before we headed home..

I had a trash bag, and my keys in one hand, and my phone in the other.

I went to throw the trash into the dumpster, and my keys got stuck..

Lets just say, my keys ended up at the bottom of the dumpster.

So after laughin hysterically and wondering how i managed to do this, Jamie and I began fishing out my keys with a stick that was nearby. I seriously thought we were gonna have to climb into the dumpster to retrieve them, but luckily our stick worked! haha... It made for some hardcore laughing, and a good story. But thats what I call one adventurous day at work. 

So thats about it, 

OH WAIT-

this evening as i was driving home from his house around like 1am,

i drove past a super creepy sketchy looking man walkin around on the side of the highway. He was acting like he was drunk and up to no good, so what did i do?! called the cops.

but seriously, who takes a little stroll at 1am in the cold, wearing sketchy clothes?!..haha

that was a good story. haha 

Well folks, i think im gonna head to bed shortly. I didnt realise what time it is, and i could be sleeping. 

night.
