Keep a Close Eye...

So, on November 15, Billy and I went to Wheelers Farm to take our family pictures. We had gotten there at 2:45pm and we were done about 3:30. When we came back, my car was broken into: purse stolen, ipod stolen, jacket stolen AND a broken window. It could have happened to anyone, but it had happened to me. Yes, its awful, but I learned a very valuable lesson. I usually dont even think about hiding my purse or keeping a close eye on it. But I will definitely do it for now on.

Pumpkin Carving

Chris and Cassie invited us to go over to their house to do some pumpkin carving. They had done it last year, but since I had school (stupid school ;D ), Billy and I had to skip out. And now, they are planning to do a traditional outta this activity. Fun fun fun! Mike and Cux ended up picking the same template so Cux ending up giving up. Haha what a nerd. Pretty sure Manny didn't even finish carving hers, she jus drew a lil picture. Cassie and Kjera's turned out really good. I liked them. I ended up voting for Cassie's, who had won, but gave it to the second place, ME! since she bought the winning gift.

Shaeds Birthday Party

My lil brother, Shaedon, turned 7 on October 18, 2009 but my parents celebrated it on the 23rd. He had all his little friends come over for a sleepover. Kids are so funny. They say the darnest things. Makes me laugh. He got a lot of great toys and Im pretty sure he LOVED his skateboard, by the look on his face lol.

Ed's Bday

My father in law is only one year from retirement but he started early lol. His birthday was on October 22 (I know, I'm so behind with my blogs). We all went over to James and Emily's for ribs (my favorite), beans, colesaw, and yummy delicious cake. Well what can I say about Ed? He is a very very chilled man, keeps to himself, but loves talking. I love when he tells me stories about the enormous houses he inspects in Alpine. I would love to go on one of these adventures with him. I think I get along the most with Ed and it's prob cuz we are both very reserved. hehe. Happy Birthday Ed!!

Witches

My mother in law, Joyce, had found an arts and crafts for Halloween and totally talked me into it. Lol! It sounded way fun, even with me not being creative. Basically, you have a wooden witch hat and decorate it. You can follow the design they had (way too complicated for me hehe) or do your own. All the Short girls (Heather is definitely a soon to be Short; Bobby's girlfriend) got together and crafted! It was soo fun. I wish I had a lil more time to think, maybe it would have turned out better, but it's still cute. Emily's, of course, turned out WAY cute. That gifted scrapbooker!

MY BIRTHDAY!!

My Birthday was a two day celebration, cuz that's how I roll. I took off Thursday, my actual birthday, and Friday just because I felt like it. On Thursday, I decorated the house with balloons and streamers. Made myself a Birthday Jello with Happy Birthday in it. Then some friends came over to watch the Season 2 Premier of Fringe and Season 6 Premier of The Office (hence the jello lol). It turned out to be a good birthday, espesh since I didn't work.

Friday, Billy and I went to lunch with his parents. Next to the restaurant, there was a fabric store, Cotton Shop, that Joyce wanted to get some fabric from. There was where I saw a sewing machine and wanted it. I've been wanting a sewing machine for a while, cuz I wanna start learning how to sew, but never thought I'd actually pay for it. So my birthday was an excuse to get it! hehe And Billy thought is was a spontaneous buy ;) After lunch, Billy and I went bowling. I DID SOOO HORRIBLE. Oh well it was fun. After bowling we went to dinner with my family and Billy's 'rents. I decided to pick "Good Wood" since my family hasn't been and its SOO d-lish! Plus I always crave BBQ ribs YUM! And finally we headed to my house for some ColdStone ice cream cake, gotta love it. Well, I sure do!
