My First Apartment :)






About a month ago, I moved into my first apartment in University Courtyard. :) It is a four bedroom four bathroom apartment and I live with two of my best friends from high school, Chrystal and Andi, as well as a girl we met at Tech last year, Melanie.

Summer's Almost Over?




Here is somewhat of an overview of my summer. It has been great and too fast and I can't believe it's almost over!



I got a job at Celebrity Cafe and Bakery at the Harbor in Rockwall, and have spent a great deal of my summer inside this store! It's a great job though! The people I work with are great. I am a cashier and will come back to work here at Christmas time. I love it! :)




Whenever Chrystal was in town we always spent time together, but she spent the majority of the summer in Lubbock this year.

When Julia and Jordan were in town, I went to a couple of Braves games with them and Jordan's family and parts of our family. It was fun! :)





Julia and Jordan

My boyfriend, Matt and Me

Marshall, Jennifer, and Dad


These sweet boys have also been a big part of my summer.

Taylor will be five in about a week, I can't believe he is getting so old and big!


Marcus turned one in March, and is bigger every time I see him!


Aren't they both just so adorable?




I spent the Fourth of July with Chrystal and Matt.


We tried to watch the Firewheel fireworks from a parking lot in Sachse, and didn't end up getting to see much at all, so we entertained ourselves by taking pictures. Here a just a couple of them. :)









Now, I only have a week left of work, and then I'm going to pack everything up and move back to Lubbock. This year I will be living in an apartment with my friends Chrystal, Andi, and Melanie. It should be a lot of fun. I'm moving in on August 11th and I can't wait to start my sophomore year at Texas Tech. :)

Roomates. :)

Birthday!

I turned nineteen a couple of weeks ago, and Julia came and visited me for the weekend! =] It was very exciting. She was in Lubbock from Saturday to Monday and we had a good time driving around campus and the city, going to the movies, seeing my apartments for next year, going to church, and going to choir and out to eat. It was great to have her there and show her my life in Lubbock.

Julia and Me.


My friends made March 3 a special day. They all came and saw me soon after it turned midnight to wish me a happy birthday. Later in the day, we went out to eat, and they had decorated and cleaned my room and bought me a cake. Then they were all waiting for me and surprised me in the room It was cute.

About the blow out the candles on my cake.

Also, I woke up to a world of snow on March 3! It was so fun to have snow on my birthday. It was a great day. Thank you all for your contributions to the day and my birthday. =]
