Summer

Today was the last day of my long term subbing job. I really enjoyed the whole experience. I learned a lot while working with the kids. So now it is off for a little break before my summer tutoring job starts at the end of June. So, yay for summer :)

Byron Nelson

This week was so much fun. Saturday I cleaned my place in preparation for my best friend Kristina to come and visit. She got into town on Saturday afternoon. We spent time hanging out and then we went to dinner with Ben and a movie after. We all saw Iron Man 2, which was very good. Today, Sunday Kristina and I went to The Byron Nelson and hung out at the 17th hole and had such a great time watching golf for the day. We ended our fun trip with dinner before Kristina had to head home. So, with that said I am tired after a fun and busy weekend and am ready to sleep. So, good night and until next time.

Charleston and Kiowaha Island

This past weekend Ben and I went to a friend of Ben's wedding. It was so much fun. It was a short trip but the first of many fun trips together. We arrived in Charleston Saturday with Ben's parents and ate lunch at a place called Blossoms. They had great food. Then we all drove around Charleston for a bit to take pictures. After we drove around we headed out to Kiowaha Island and stayed at a resort that was so pretty. Then we checked into our rooms and got ready for the 5:30 wedding. The wedding was about a 15 minute drive from where we were staying.

The wedding itself was so pretty it was outside and a nice ceremony. Ben and I enjoyed watching his friend get married and celebrate with them. The reception was fun as well. There was a great band that played great music. We stayed until about 9 got some cake and watched everyone dance as well as the bride and groom. Then we went back to the hotel and Ben and I explored the hotel.

Sunday we woke up and had breakfast at the hotel restaurant. Then Ben and I went and walked around the beach and took some pictures. We had a great time before we had to head back to Dallas. It was a great trip and look forward to returning to Charleston and seeing everything.

Mother's Day

Happy Mothers day to all the Mothers out there, and to my Mom :) I love you

Chase's graduation

Well, yesterday my little brother graduated from TCU! So, here is a shout out to him. The day was full of activity. We left Dallas and headed to the land of the stalk yards and cowboy hats, otherwise known as Fort Worth. We got there and took Chase to a reception they had for the graduates. While we were there I told my Dad that I had to use the restroom, and he said well why don't you use the restroom in the student center so I can buy Chase a TCU tie. So, I did just that. I went in and waited in the long line for the woman's restroom that had ONLY FIVE stalls in it and then washed my hands and headed back out. As I headed back out I noticed there were less people than had been there when I walked in. Then I checked the book store area and there were no family members of mine there. So, I then thought maybe they were outside. As I walk out I look around and see Bill and my Dad walking towards me. You guessed everyone forgot about me and left me there. My dad claims he thought I was with my Mom who had already walked over to the basketball coliseum where the graduation ceremony took place. Then as Bill and my Dad got there they noticed I was not there. My mom asked where I was and my dad said he thought I was with my Mom. Then Bill told me yeah we forgot about you. So I was like thanks guys here you totally forget about me I see where I am ranking here. So, we venture on over the the ceremony to find my mom who had texted us where she was. The trouble was that so many people were using phones etc that the text did not arrive until after we had found my mom and had sat down.

The ceremony was nice but did last forever, and when I say forever I mean 3 hours! There were over 700 graduates in the afternoon and around 600 in the morning. The morning ceremony got to hear the commencement speaker, and the afternoon did not. Which was nice since there were so MANY graduates. Then, we went to dinner with my family and Chase's girlfriend. Dinner was great and a great end to a fun day. Then we left to come back home.
