Hectic!

The last couple of weeks have been hectic for me! I had a crazily busy week of nonstop work and then my birthday hit. Then I went on a roadtrip to B.C. and spent some time soaking up the sun and shopping in Washington.

On my birthday, I had a pretty good day... I had breakfast at Shaun's and then went to the mall and had my hair done and picked up a few things that were last minute things to go with a couple of things I had gotten for my birthday from my family and stuff I needed to go away for the week. Then we went to the Mongolie Grill for dinner (My Mom, Emily, Matt, Laurel, Shaun, Mike, Chris, Jordan, Dana, Tammy, John S., Trevor, Britney, Meghan and I) and then to THING. THING was interesting... I was on the prayer team but also ended up helping with games... Part of what made that interesting was that it was a WILD and not a NEW THING and there wouldn't normally be games. :) We had fun though. Afterwards we went to Moxie's at Westhills (Matt, Emily, Tammy, Adam, John S., Brian G., Jordan, Shaun, Chris, Mike, Lisa, Meghan, John and I) and Shaun tried to make me drink and entire tray of drinks. I passed a couple of them off to friends and was glad I wasn't driving either way. :)

Emily and I embarked upon our roadtrip to B.C. and Washington later in the day on the Sunday and we had a ton of fun! We spent our first night in Cranbrook and then went on to Grand Forks where we spent most of our trip. While we were gone we spent a ton of time in the water! Between the hotel pool on the way out, Christina Lake and going down to Riverside or tubing down the river, I was feeling pretty water-logged by the end of the week. :) We had a ton of fun though and got great tans! We also went down to Colville one day and spent some time perusing the shopping selections at the Dollar Giant or some such store as that, Payless Shoes and Wal-Mart (which is open 24 hours there!) and another day we went to Spokane. My mom wanted to go to Chico's and I wanted to hit Lane Bryant. We also went to the Fashion Bug, TJ Max, Macy's and Nordstrom's. We had a ton of fun shopping and "playing Barbie" with each other and we all came back (Em, my mom and I that is) with some fun new clothes! We also picked up a ton of pop for a bunch of random people!

I'm glad to be home but on one hand, life is hectic, I am working at least 38 hours for the next few weeks! For anyone who needs anything for back to school, come see me!!! I'll appreciate the company and I'm pretty much always at my home store!!!
