I have been so bad this past week at blogging. Apparently my life has been more fun than usual. : ) Tuesday morning I went and presenting my I-folio and am now FINISHED! WHOOP! I am so excited to be done with that! I came home and made Pip a haircut appointment then went to Chic-fil-a to celebrate being done. After eating I took a short two hour nap : ) while Pip went to the groomers. I went and picked him up and watched TV and relaxed for the majority of the day. It was great, yet boring. I picked up Nola for Brenna and off to Kingwood we went. Wednesday was full of getting ready for Thanksgiving. Mom and I went to the grocery store and then got cooking. Roy and Jessica arrived and Jessica got cooking with us. Mom made homemade lasagna for dinner it was amazing- best I've ever had. Paula Dean sure does know her stuff.
Thanksgiving was good. I got up and went with Lissa and Emily up to the high school to walk around the new school and to see lissas boyfriend shoot some hoops (it was much more crowded than we thought, all with old men) so we only stopped by the basketball court for a second before continuing on our adventure around the new school. The year after I graduated they basically tore apart the high school and have been remodeling ever since. It is still not complete. It was so weird looking at everything and being like that was where my locker was...oh it a hallway now...or that was the training room...oh its a dance studio now. Its totally different yet I can still see it as if it was yesterday. I cant believe I'm done with college, i feel like i just walked the halls of kingwood high school now I am going to be a teacher! CRAZY how time flies!! We came home from that and showered and got ready for lunch. We ate lunch around 2ish and were done in time for the boys to watch the Cowboys kick off. Mom and I watched Miracle on 34th Street in the other room : ) Around 4ish I left and went to visit with the Parkers, the whole clan followed me shortly. We sat around and chatted. It was odd not to have thanksgiving with them this year. We always have it together. : ( Justin got here about 10 minutes after we got home from the Parkers. I have gotten so used to seeing him every day now it was odd not to see him for one day! We all sat around for the rest of the night, ate and watched the Aggies get cremated!! (Dad rewound the TV and put it in slow motion so we could point out Kason to him). We all headed to bed as soon as the game was over. It had been a long day and you know how Thanksgiving knocks you out!
Today we got up and had pancakes and bacon! It was yummy, followed by a brisk walk to the lakes and back. We all needed one after yesterday and then this mornings breakfast. After our walk Roy and Justin tried to move the desk out of my bedroom so I could put my desk from school in my room but it was assembled in this room, therefore it doesn't fit through the door and if we took it apart it would be a disaster so I agreed to let it stay in my room. However it does take up twice the amount of room my desk from school takes up but that is okay. This is a "temporary living arrangement" is what I keep getting told. After that Justin, Roy and I went and met Elissa her boyfriend and his cousins at Hins (the best Chinese in Kingwood) for lunch. After lunch Justin and I finally unloaded my car even though it still has no place to go. I don't know how mom has accumulated so much crap and how it all landed in my room and closet. (I guess half of it is mine) We sat around for a little while and watched the Arkansas vs. LSU game while Jess and Dad put together the Christmas tree. It is a family tradition that on Thanksgiving we go see whatever animated movie is out at the time so this year we decided on "BOLT" It was actually a ADORABLE movie. I cried a number of times but I just kept thinking about how I would be crushed if I ever lost Pip (I know lame, but he is my baby). We came home and ate dinner and Dad Justin and I watched The Lord of the Rings while Roy and Jessica watched Elf in the other room (we have a hard time agreeing on TV shows if you couldn't tell). Around 9ish we started decorating the tree. I'll let the pictures explain the rest. It was quite the ordeal to get these boys in Santa hats and we had to take pictures quickly because it wasn't going to last!!
