Back To School... Back To School... To Prove To Dad I'm Not A Fool..

So, It's been a little bit since I've written on here. A lot has happened. We are now completely moved back into our apartment in Cleveland. Night Classes start tomorrow. Day Classes start Tuesday. I'm ready to start our new classes and get this semester going.

Anyway, While I was at the school bookstore (only buying necessities, I might add), I was looking through the discount book bin (which is a necessity), and I found a book Called Monkey Portraits. I found this amazing "monkey portrait" in it and had to take a snapshot of it to share.

Monkey Portraits

Also in the bookstore, I got this new YakPak Purse.(Yet Again a NECESSITY).

On Monday night we went to La Cabana for Sarah's 21st Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!! Here is a picture of me and Jeremy there! :)

 On Wednesday, We received a tiny little package from Renee in the mail. She told us she was sending something but wouldn't tell what it was. When we opened the package, we found these ITTY BITTY bottles of Tabasco sauce. :) She knew we would get a kick out of them, so she sent them to us out of Aaron's MREs. Aren't they so CUTE!

 Here is a little snapshot of Sissy and Jeremy, hanging out, playing Xbox. :)

 On Saturday, Phi Mu Alpha hosted a cookout for the Band kids for the last day of band camp. Here are a couple shots with/of our favorite Skipper, David Mason!

This Skipper's Got Some Captian In Him!

Well, That's about. I think I have pretty much covered everything for right now. I'm sure I will have plenty to write about in the next couple of days as soon as school starts!

Pet Switch-a-roo

Lately we have been doing alot with our pets.

Yesterday, after talking about it a week ago, Turtle went to a new home with Lacey and Glenn! Turtle (who never really got called anything but that) is now named Bowzer :) Here he is on his way to his new home!



He is trying to E-Scap- e ! :)

And, when we go back to school next week, we are taking Sissy with us. She is the cowboy corgi that usually stays at my moms house. She will now be "Jeremy's dog" and I think some how she knows because ever since we decided to take her with us, she has been sitting by him and watching him play video games, etc. Like so:



Haha So, that about it for now. Not much else is going on right now.

More later!

Working At The Car Wash!!

So, last week we pretty much just hung out and packed a few things to take back to school.

We also went to the pool with John, Jessica, and the kids! Here's John having fun in the little tube! Haha




After that we packed up on Thursday and headed to Cleveland on Friday. We unpacked the car and hung up the new poster Jessica and John gave us.(which is awesome!) AND it fits perfectly on the wall where nothing else fits!



After that, we headed to Southaven to do a Carwash Fundraiser for Phi Mu Alpha on Saturday! Here are some pictures from that!!









So sad some of the guys (and girls) couldn't be there though! They missed out!!

So, now we are ready to go back to school this saturday and work on cleaning everything up and getting all of the things we still need to move and unpack settled!

Let's do this!

Tacos, TrueBlood, and Trivial Pursuit

So, last night was fun! We went to John and Jessica's house for tacos before Our Show!(TrueBlood of course) We had tacos and then played the Trivial Pursuit card game, which was very fun, while we waited on time for the show!

Here are a few snapshots of what we do while waiting for TrueBlood! (besides playing games and having the most awesome homemade shakes ever! -Thanks, Jessica!!)









Haha well that's all for now!

Bunco tonight!

Books and Birthdays

So, last week, Jeremy, Mickey, and I went to the Public Library. I finally got a new library card to replace the one that got stolen in my purse.... when i was 10. 

So, that tells you how long ago it was when I went to the library! We also went downstairs and looked in the book mart and I got 6 books for $1.50! :) (because it is 25 cents per inch of books)

After our trip to the Library, I was inspired to make a Kindle Cover for myself that would be more my style. VERY BOOK-ISH( No. That is not a word. I just made it up.) So here is the finished result!

 Last weekend, we went to Jackson to celebrate Laiken's Birthday! Here are a couple pictures of our first Build-A-Bear Experience!

Then, on Wednesday was Laiken's Spa Barbie Birthday Party.

Dad was in charge of painting the birthday girls nails! :)

Trips Around Mississippi and Down Memory Lane

So, since my last post, Jeremy and I have been a few places.

We went to Cleveland to check on things and take care of business, etc. While we were there, we went to Hey Joe's! :) And they got some great new marketing strategies that I am going to share on here because I really REALLY like them! :)

BINGO! (but you have to take photos of yourself doing different things)

And new info sheets about Hey Joe's with little signs

 to hold up for what you need! (such a great idea!)

After that, we went to THE LAST HARRY POTTER MOVIE EVER! I know. We were kind of sad and nostalgic. We both grew up with the Harry Potter books and movies and were excited to see the last movie finally come to theaters, but we were also very sad for the whole things to come to an end. It is like a small piece of our childhood has ended, pushing us farther into adulthood and "growing up". 

And here we are at our last Harry Potter!

Then, this past weekend, I went to Starkville with Jenny and met all of her friends there. That was interesting but still VERY fun! :) Here are a few snapshots from our time there! 

I have only one thing to say about all of these pictures. 

Yes. That is a bachelorette party straw.

(If you know what I mean...)

Well, that is all for now. I leave you with a picture of My Little Soldier Guy on the way to Starkville!

A Wedding And A Funeral (minus the funeral)

So we've been SUPER busy this past weekend! Friday we went to Jackson for Renee and Aaron's rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. It was fun and the food was great! :) (that and we decorated the church and reception hall to get everything ready for Saturday!)

While we were in Jackson, we hopped on over to the Best Buy in Madison and I had forgotten that they have awesome parking. The front parking spots are Reserved For Fuel Efficient Vehicles Only (I.e. Our Camry!) :)




Saturday we were VERY VERY busy doing wedding stuff and I took photos but I'll put some of those up later! (here is an iPhone snapshot to hold you over until then)




Then, Sunday we went to a BBQ for Renee and Aaron!

We went to Jackson Monday to the Hobby Lobby and Jeremy found a Centurion Hat(Rory Pond Style)!




And yesterday we went to see Renee and Aaron off as they left to move all of Renee's stuff to North Carolina!




We are really gonna miss her but we are so happy for her and Aaron. :) WE LOVE YOU, RENEE!! ( you too Aaron :) )

Well, that's all for now!
