Catch up!

Wow-it's been to long since I last posted on this blog. I am definitely more busy since I graduated and started working full time. Work is going great, and I love the people I work with everyday. I turned 29 in June, and had a great birthday. Went to the lake for the 4th of July with our friends Clint and Jessica, and I found out that one of my dearest friends Loni is pregnant, and I could not be happier for her and her husband Josh! We are currently planning her baby shower, and it's going to be so much fun. Trevor and I are still in the baby making proxess, we have not had any luck, but I am staying positive! I have heard that stressing over it just makes it harder, so I am trying to stay optimistic!

Trevor and I will be heading to Europe in August and spending 10 glorious days over there! I cannot wait! We are going to Munich, Venice, and Rome. This has been one of my dreams since I was young, so I cannot wait to see all the sites.

Also my friends Aaron and Brooke got married in June. It was a beautiful wedding, and Trevor and I had a great time celebrating with them. Just trying to touch on all of the highlights from this last couple of months, and I will try to do better about posting! I am sure I will have pictures of our Europe trip at the end of this month. Until then, XOXOXOXO!!

Graduation

So I graduated college on May 14th @ 1:00PM. I gotta say that it was the best feeling! I did not think that it would make me so emotional but it did. Finally closing that chapter, and ready to move on with the rest of my life. Here are some pictures of my graduation and the awesome party that my Mom, my sister, and Stephanie threw me! Love you guys! It was so much fun!!

Getting WAY too comfortable

So Trev and I have been trying to get pregnant for 2 months now, so far no good. :( But like I said it's only been 2 months. Hopefully it will happen soon- my hope is alive! Anywho, so I have stopped eating well, working out at all, and have been saying to myself "Well, I don't need to workout and eat well because I am trying to get preggers and I will get huge anyway!" Not a good outlook to have, but SO much easier than trying to stay on the "healthy" path! Anywho, I will be graduating very soon, and I took a look in the mirror this morning and said "EW!" I want to look fabulous in my graduation pics, not Fat-ulous! The only solution for this situation is to get my butt off the couch, and away from the computer (stupid school work), and start working out. Trevor has said that he will start running with me, so that's great! Hopefully we stick to it. As far as eating so unhealthy, that will just have to stop. It's my own fault that I eat horrible things for me, and I can control that. I actually know alot of recipes that are super healthy for me, but for some reason I decide to make the cheesy goodness recipes.

Next up, figuring out how to get and stay motivated! I fall into the comfortable zone way too easily!! So if you know of any delish recipes that are super healthy send them my way!!

In other news, I started my job on Tuesday and it feels good to make money again. :) The only drawback is that the girl who was training me was absent on Thursday, and I had only 1 day to train with her. Then my supervisor called me today to tell me that my trainer had her baby this morning. AHHH!! So now I am pretty much on my own when it comes to figuring out what my job is. I will figure it out!! (Hopefully!) So now instead of working just Tuesday and Thursday, I will be working everyday. MWF after school and all day on Tuesdays and Thursdays. More money! But less time to study for finals.... I'll take the money!

This weekend is not very busy. Trevor and I will be staying home tonight with me working on school work (I am running out of time!) and Trevor on the house. Then on Satuday we will be going out to dinner with our friends Aaron and Brooke. Yay! I have not seen either one of them in what seems like forever! Sunday will be a day of more school work. UGH- can't wait to be done! I am done for now! Everyone have a safe fun weekend!!

Got my hair did...

I have been wanting to do something different with my hair for a while, and today I did!! I always get my hair back to it's natural color, all healthy and long, and then I get the itch to change it. So today I went to my friend Sidney's house where her salon is and she highlighted and trimmed up my layers. It looks great! I love it, and it's jus light enough for the summer time. It is so funny how getting your hair done can make you feel like a million bucks! So thanks Sidney!! I know you are reading this- hhhheeeehhheeehhheee.

This weekend is Jenay's b-day party at Dave and Busters, yay! So Trevor and I will be heading there on Saturday, but then hopefully Friday night will be a nice quiet evening at home, and we can get dome house work done. We really need to start redoing the kitchen, take down the wallpaper, texture the walls, then paint those walls. Next up after that..... the blue room getting painted. We have been in this house since August of last year, and we have done very little that we said we would do by now. Such is life. But lately I have wanted to start these projects and just get them over with!!

I graduate in a month from yesterday! YAY!! Now I just need to focus on studying for my finals, and getting a major paper done. This year is flying by already, and I would like to slow down and savor my graduation moment, without having to think about getting a job.....hahaha yea right! I have a busy summer coming up, well in June, not really July, so I doubt that will happen.

Our camera is still broken, we just need to buy a new one, but I have a pic from my phone. SO here it is! I looked down in the photo so you could see the highlights.

I gots to get PAID!

So I got a call from my sister-in-laws work yesterday. I had asked Tammy that since I was graduating, if she could see if her work was hiring, maybe even something temporary, and if she could circulate my resume around her office. She did, and the next day- the HR department called!! YAY! So I filled out an application, and then I went on an interview today. It went really well!! I pretty much was told that I got the job, and that I will start training the week of May 3rd. Well, that is the last week of classes for me, so I told her all about it, and it seems to be fine. SO hopefully I will have a job soon! YAY! I would be a customer service rep., and that's ok, but I hope it leads to another job. ;)

Since Trevor and I have decided to try and get preggers, I will put off getting ym teaching certification, and just get a job to bide the time from me getting pregnant and actually having the baby. SO hopefully this will work out, and become a long term option, if I like the job. I am just excited that I will be getting paid. I have not had a job for a year and a half, and it will help to have more spending money, and more savings for my car that I will be getting during tax season of next year, can't wait!!

Easter Weekend

I started my weekend off by going by the UTA bookstire to purchase my cap, gown, and honor cords for my graduation. I was truly giddy at this point. I cannot wait to graduate, one of my biggest goals almost finally accomplished. This semester will finally be over with a few more papers written, and a few more tests to take! Next I went home, did some house cleaning, and the waited for Trevor to get home so we could go to dinner. After dinner we went back to our house and got ready to go out with Jessica and Clint. They were in town for their family Easter, and staying in Ft. WOrth, so we headed down to the bar area around TCU, and had some drinks, the boys played pool, and we had a great time. After we decided to go ahead and stay at the hotel Jessica and Clint were staying at since we had been drinking and liced around 45 minutes away.

On Saturday morning, we all got up, went to eat breakfast together, and then Trevor and I headed back to our house. We had a relaxing day toether, and then when it came to Saturday night we got ready once again to hang out with Clint and Jessica in Ft. Worth. This time CLint's parents came out- they are tons of fun- and we all went to the Stockyards in Ft. Worth. We ended p at this bar called "Flithy McNasties" kid you not!! Good friends, good music, and good times. That night ended with a trip to Whataburger for late night munchies, then Trev and I headed back home to the house to rest up for Easter Sunday.

We woke up SUnday morning, got ready for family time at my parents house, and headed that way. My whole family was at my mom's house, including my Aunt Dru and Uncle Mark. Next up was Trevor's parents house and we ate more food, and watched the kiddos hunt for the Easter eggs. I can't wait until I have a little one to hunt for eggs. Yes, that's right my baby fever has heightened!!! Surprise, surprise. :) Anywho, we went home and watched very little t.v., and then I crashed for the night. Was so tired!! That was our Easter weekend, and I hope you all had a great one too!! No pics from the weekend since our camera is still broken! :(

Lately...

This weekend was a blur. It went by waaay to fast for my taste! Friday night we went to Wing Stop to grab some dinner, and then we headed to the Lewisville Baseball Center to watch a Opening Day Parade that my nephew was in. After watching the parade and wtching the kiddos play for awhile we went to get some ice cream (yum!) and headed home to watch some t.v. then go to bed. Saturday we woke up early to go to our nephew Greyson's first Blast Ball game. Blast ball is just like t-ball, but when you reach first base, the kids jump on the base and it honks. lol. They are 3, so no one gets out and there is really no fielding going on either. Just teaches them the basics of hitting the ball and running the bases. After the game Trevor and I drove to Garland. I spent the day with my parents and Trevor went to his parents so that him and his brother Trent could work on our new granite fireplace mantle. After that I went over to Jenay's house, played with her kiddos, then went to eat at Dodie's in Rockwall with Paige, Jenay, Wade, and myself. After Trevor met us, and we went to meet Chelsea and Brent at a friend of their's, and I actually ended up knowing from 1st grade- lol. Small world. After that we headed back to Jenay and Wade's to hang out a bit longer, then we headed home for the night. On Sunday we were lazy the first part of the day, but then around 12:00PM we got up took showers and headed to Babies R Us to order the crib that I mentioned in one of my earlier posts. It will be here in 7-14 days. Now all we need is a baby! I know it's only been one month since we started trying (yay!) but I am already impatient. HAHA. I can't wait for our family to grow. :)

Today I went to school and worked on our group project that is due at the end of April. Wow how this semster has flown by!! I cannot believe it's almost April, and that means only 1 month until I graduate!! After that, job searching will commence- oh goody. Wish me luck!!
