Back to Reality

Well, a lot has happened since my last post. In a nutshell, our wedding and honeymoon were fabulous. Everything went perfectly and we were so happy with it all. We also moved into a new house. It's a really great little house and it is so fun to set up with all of our new stuff. We've been so busy over the last 4 weeks that we're not all the way unpacked yet, but we're making good progress. Our internet is hooked up now, so I can get back into the routine of blogging. We don't have all of the pictures of the wedding back yet, but here are a few that we do have. If you were there and you took some pictures, can you please email them to me so that I can have them? Thanks! I'll post more pictures soon!

I know, I know

It's a little bit blurry, but here it is............38 days!!!!!

SPICE up your life

This weekend Ashley and I went to the SPICE GIRLS reunion tour. It was one of the BEST concerts I have ever been to - and I've been to a lot of concerts. They sounded great, looked great, and were highly entertaining. Besides the SPICE GIRLS themselves, the best part of the night is that we were sitting 20 feet away from David Beckham the ENTIRE time!!!! He was in a luxury box right behind us. He sat out on the edge right next to the crowd and we could see him the whole time. Unfortunately, they wouldn't let me take my camera in there, so all I have is this picture of Ashley and I in the car on the way there and this wonderful picture of David Beckham so that you can imagine sitting next to him too.

We're engaged!!!!!

Yeah!!! Although I knew he was going to propose soon, I had no idea that it would be yesterday. Moose surprised me at my apartment when I got home from school. He was there on one knee waiting for me to get home with the ring and some gorgeous flowers. Aren't we so cute????

New hair, again

It's really hard to take a good picture of yourself. It looks a little bit darker in the picture than it does in real life. What do you think?

By popular demand......

Long time, no blog.....

Hello Friends! It's true - I'm still alive. It has been quite a while since I've blogged, sorry! Here are some updates on my life:
1. I moved into my own apartment. Because of the move, I no longer have internet at home, and the school firewall doesn't let me use blogger :-(
2. Homecoming came and went and was busy, hectic, and wonderful. I realize that I'm not in high school, but being a student council advisor means that my life revolves around homecoming, a little pathetic, I know.
3. Most of my free time has been consumed by an exciting new relationship. I believe in internet karma, so I won't post any details for now, but hopefully he'll stick around long enough to make the blog soon.
4. My master's program has kicked into high gear, which is why I'm in the UNLV library right now trying to avoid studying.
I know that was really short, but I promise to post again soon. Hope all is well in your lives - let me in on the good gossip!

I got tagged.....

Apparantly "tagging" is very popular in the blogging world. Tiffany and Ava tagged me. Since I like to do what's popular, I am passing the torch to you Charlene, Ashley, Fern, and Kelli.
These are the instructions:
A. List 7 habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag 7 people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag whoever wants to do it.

Where do I start??? There are so many strange things about me.
1. Seeing or hearing someone brush their teeth makes me physically gag. I have tried not to, but it is a physical reaction I cannot control.
2. I don't love animals. The truth is that I'm secretly afraid of them. I just don't have much experience with them. To quote my favorite TV character, Chandler Bing, "Dogs are jumpy, and needy, and you can't tell what they're thinking - and that kind of scares me". Plus, I got bit by a dog a few weeks ago.
3. I LOVE gameshows - especially JEOPARDY. In fact, I TiVo Jeopardy every day.
4. A bat flew up my prom dress. Enough said.
5. My life revolves around Homecoming. Yes, I realize that I am not in high school, but the life of a student council advisor often resembles that of the students.
6. I love painting my toes REALLY bright colors. Right now they are a bright pinkish orange.
7. I once ate a whole box of Hostess cupcakes in one sitting. The best part is that they didn't even belong to me - they were my roommate Ashley's and I forgot to tell her until she noticed they were all gone :-) Sadly, trying to maintain my new smaller size has eliminated Hostess cupcakes from my life. Oh, how I miss them.

What I really want to know is what strange things YOU think of when you think of me. Comment so that I know what my most memorable quirks are!

Hooray for 3 day weekends!

Whew! I needed a 3 day weekend. School started last week and it was exhausting. Everything went very well, but it was super busy. I teach great classes this year and I'm really looking forward to improving upon the things I did well last year.
I did my best to get school things done on Friday so that I could have a relaxing weekend. It has been lovely so far - sleeping in, reading books, scrapbooking, shopping at my favorite stores (Kohl's, Target, and Ross) and hanging out with friends. All in all, I wish every weekend was 3 days long!
