Since I only have three minutes to highlight three months of my life I'm just going to choose topics that I took the time to take a picture!! Hopefully I will be able to blog more often so I won't have to do the boring version again!!
Cake, Torture and Breaking Dawn!
Three of my favorite things... cake, L-nel and I torturing my dad and midnight movie premieres. Especially if those premieres include a shirtless werewolf. Even if shirtless werewolf is practically a minor!! Even though I don't like chocolate cake... that camo buttercream icing was amazing! What made the cake extra yummy is that my dad wasn't there but really wanted some of that cake. He even tried to get me to cut him a piece before I even took it to my aunts birthday party. I am not the kind of person that takes an already eat on cake to someone's birthday party. However, I am the kind of person that poses with her partner in crime with the coveted chocolate cake and sends her dad the picture via text message!! If you know my dad, you know that his reaction was highly entertaining!! He is such a DRAMA QUEEN!! Now to the shirtless werewolf part. A part I almost missed because it was a school night and I was extremely exhausted. If you have seen Breaking Dawn part 1 you know that the shirt comes off in the first 5 seconds of the movie and then NEVER AGAIN!! And I woulda missed it because Lionela said (with an evil laugh) if I fell asleep she would wait until the movie was half over to wake me! Luckily I can't sleep when I'm cold and after them making us wait outside for an hour in the FREEZING COLD I was like a popsicle. A grumpy popsicle!! Even tired I love midnight premieres. Even though crazy things always happen to me. But that's too long a story to tell even if it is entertaining. Next on our midnight list... The Hunger Games!! Can't wait!!
Another Year Older!
OLDER... I remember when I used to love that word and now that I am racing towards 30 it gives me nightmares. However I do love my birthday!! A day completely dedicated to me and what I want!! Actually my birthday this year wasn't as good as it normally is. But going to Los Vaqueros with my family was great! Manduh brought cupcakes... which I love even more than cake!! My nephew Brayden who kept me entertained all night managed to get cupcake all over my right side!! I do love 7 year old boys with turquoise cupcakes!! Oh and just in case anyone needs this info... do not wear high heeled boots (no matter how great they are) in the stockyards!! Streets made of bricks are not a high heeled boots friend! They definitely aren't a clutzy girl's friend!! I almost died. I saw my life flash before my eyes. Actually that was the car that drove past headlights but I didn't know that at the time. Next year I'm thinking my birthday will be great! No near death accidents allowed!!
Indians Go To State!!
Thousands of Alvarado people! Most of my facebook friends were there... and saw maybe 5 of them! 2 of them were with me lol!! Craziest thing ever but soooooo much fun!! well the 9 dollar nacho thing wasn't that fun. but since I wasn't really hungry just sentimental I didn't stupidly buy any!! My first time in Cowboy stadium and it was an Alvarado game :) a game that Alvarado ALMOST and SHOULDA won!! Best and funniest thing of the night was Manduh threatening to punch an OLD lady in the face because she had to pee and the lady wouldn't let her in!! We should go to high school games more often. They bring out our inner children and we let them run around being naughty!!
Jiggle Butt Run 2012
Team Jiggalicious! I love 5Ks. Even more I love doing them with friends who also love 5Ks. They are so much fun and they are for a good cause. Fun and helping people... great stuff!! Since this was a little over a week ago I remember this event better than the others. We saw some things that really make you go "WHOA!!" and "someone should have stopped her"!! But since those things are entertaining to me... I loved the crazies!! Crazies make me smile !! I really wish the others in our team would have came. I'm one those "the more the merrier" kind of people but in a way it was really nice just me and Candie. We shared more in this 3 point whatever miles than we have in awhile. Even though you talk to someone several times a week seeing them in person makes you realize you can still miss them!! Thank goodness for FLR and 5Ks!! And thank goodness for a tiny piece of my car keys sticking out of my trunk from where I shut my keys in there! This is not the first time I've done this but it is the first time I haven't had to call a locksmith to get my keys out of my trunk!! And it is the first time someone has posted it on facebook for all to see!! I have issues with my keys and my trunk! which is why I love trucks! BTW... I'm putting together a team for the march of dimes if anyone is interested!! I'll have more info at the beginning of February!
