Rapping... Wrapping...

I had a pretty busy past couple of days with the family, which means pictures didn't really happen. I spent Friday driving to my home, home (no that's not a typo) and then at a wrapping party. I misunderstood the invites from my Aunts and came dressed in my best rap artist attire ready to spit some mad lines, only to find out we were wrapping Christmas presents. Although disappointed (you really should have seen my gold chains), I did have a fantastic time and managed to learn some very important family Christmas wrapping secret. Super intense guys ;)

Saturday was spent honoring my Aunt at a large banquet into the Greater Flint Sports Hall of Fame, for all of her amazing sports accomplishments. I wore the rocking purple dress you can somewhat see above, and forgot to get outfit pictures while dressed. So instead, we will have to settle for a picture of me with both of my dashing brothers, and a fun little mirror picture. 

Hope your weekend was just as swell!

 

Open Window

So I was planning on taking pictures Friday while we were traveling, but then I fell asleep in the car. That tends to happen. So instead you get a happy picture of me and that boy of mine, who so kindly took my picture Thanksgiving day.

Did everyone have a great weekend? I know I did. It was full of family and friends and good laughs and good love. What was the highlight for me? Snuggling up in bed with the window open listening to it rain all night. It's November people, and I'm in Michigan. That NEVER happens. 

Talk about special :)

And Then We Went Hiking

So this is how my life has gone since last Wednesday. Ready, set, rewind!

On Thursday I went home (which I guess isn't really my home anymore, but my "parent's house"), because my mother has decided to re-do my childhood room into a more adult-like setting. AKA she has officially kicked me out. Just kidding. But really, I had to go home to sort through all kinds of memories. Which I did successfully and somewhat sadly. I mean look at all the cool things I found! Including my first concert tickets ever. Don't hate on the Hanson (still one of my favorite bands of all time), I went to see them when I was in 3rd grade with my very best friend and we squealed the entire time.

Later that day I headed back to my actual home(also known as my mailing address) to have a night out with some of my favorite friends. It was an absolute blast filled with dancing and laughter. 

Then Saturday rolled around, and it was time for the last home football game of the year. On the way to it my friends and I decided to take a nature walk through campus. We found some pretty neat things along the way, including this crazy art under one of the bridges on campus.

Hope you all had as great of a weekend as I did!

Weekend Update

This weekend I had the chance to not only hang out with my boy (pictured at top), I got to go to my first Red Wings game! It was great to get to see the boyfriend whom is currently living on the East Coast, and I even got to spend some time with some of my other favorite people. Especially these two girls with me in the last picture. I've never been that into hockey, but here in Michigan Wings hockey is one of the few things to get us through the long winter months.

After Friday night the boy and I got to relax back at my place and enjoy some of the most amazing sushi I have ever had. Seriously about killed me in all its fantasticness!

How was your weekend?
