yawn

I cannot believe how long its been since I made my last post! Sorry to anyone who actually reads my blog. I know, I know, I kind of fell of the world for a little while. So what have I been up to lately... Well Jake got his first paycheck! Wahoooooo MONEY. Jake and I went to Antioch to spend some time with our cousins. We were only going to go for Tuesday night through Wednesday evening. But we stayed from Tuesday night until Monday evening!!! Wednesday Heather, Keri, (two of my cousins) and I did a whole day of scrapbooking! It was so much fun. I have never really done a scrapbook like this before and it was so much fun. I will share photos of it on my craft blog in a while. I can only do so much in one evening :) Then on Sunday and Monday we went to Jackson Rancheria Casino!!!!! We had a lot of fun and came out with more money than we went in with, and thats what I call a good trip to the casino! We both had so much fun with our cousins Heather and Robert (married), that we both want to go back and visit again soon! Other than that, I have had some DRAMA... but I cannot blog about it, blah. And I have not really made many cards lately. I've been spending more time reading which is probably why I haven't been bloging as much lately. Oh, and I have FINALLY figured out an ice coffee that I make at home that I like just as much as going to starbucks! That is a HUGE money saver for Jake and I. Because I {LOVE} my iced coffee. And more than I love that, I love VANILLA iced coffee. So today I went down to starbucks and bought a bottle of vanilla :) Now my homemade iced coffees are perfect. I have been thinking about getting my hair cut and maybe getting bangs. We'll see I guess. And I want to go get a manicure done sometime, that'd be so nice. I recently got a lot of new clothes and lost 9lbs! Thats been ther biggest change around here I would say. I got some new shirts and skirts and a dress, and a jean jacket, and some new shoes, and some new jeans! What fun fun fun. Last night Jake took me out for dinner. We went to Red Lobster and we both had the endless shrimp special. Yum yum yum. Then we bought Hero's Season 1. We bought Hero's season 2 a few days ago :) Well I should get going because we are going to have dinner and then go to Bible study :)
