As of late...

I have had a very busy but fun (most of the time) life lately. Here's some of the stuff I've been up to:


Pedicure! So fun. It's been a couple weeks and it still looks great!


Went home for the little sister's SEVENTEENTH birthday! So crazy! Like her haha Someday she'll learn that these pictures will end up on the internet one way or another :) 


Spontaneously went to a Jazz game with Des, Becca and Cade (not pictured). It was way fun and they totally beat the Nuggets! (please excuse my multiple chins...gross)


Went to an Aggie themed surprise party for my friend Jessica! Soo good to see her. She now works somewhere south of here...ahem..bless her heart. and check out this cake!!! Awesome!


I bought a cute new sweater from Loft (yes, I may be obsessed with that store). This is the picture I took to send to my mom to show her how cute it is. 

In other news, work has been super crazy this last week. I even had my first super angry mom. That was fun...not!!! I hope there's not many of those left to go through this SOAR season. I've also been sick all week. I finally got sick enough that I took yesterday off of work. Which was unfortunate, because I have TONS to get done. I'm hoping to completely recover this weekend but progress has been slow. Wish me luck! Oh! I've also lost another pound. Yes, just one but hey! It's something, so I'll take it! Peace and blessin's y'all! Enjoy Conference...I know I am!
