Our wedding was many years ago. The celebration continues to this day.

Love one another and you will be happy. It is as simple and difficult as that.

It’s Been 21 Years…

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

So I woke up this morning and kept staring at the date on my phone.

September 21st? That was an important day, right?

I couldn’t decide between Pearl Harbor or a big test in my AP class- but it had to be one of the two (or something along those lines…)

As it turns out, it was my parents anniversary… Yeah, I’ll remember it one of these days.

Of course they asked for dinner to be made for them. I looked in the pantry and gave them two choices: spaghetti or udon noodles in spaghetti sauce. They chose the spaghetti.

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!

Even pearls are dark before the whiteness of teeth.

Teeth…

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011

So if you haven’t heard about my many many teeth issues… then how did you even find this blog?

Well, my canines were impacted into the top of my mouth (like you couldn’t see them, but they were in the roof of my mouth all the same). I had to have oral surgery to bring them down (then another one ’cause they’re really stubborn…)

ANYWAY, you can finally see them, but one of the canines is backwards (so you can see the back of my tooth from the front)

I had an orthodontist appt yesterday and now my mouth HURTS.

Yeah, that was a rant blog… 😉

Google…

It’s Google’s 13th birthday!!!

Just thought that was a fun and random fact.

In case you couldn’t guess, I learned this from today’s Doodle.

Stifling an urge to dance is bad for your health – it rusts your spirit and your hips.

There is a bit of insanity in dancing that does everybody a great deal of good.

Homecoming…

Monday, September 26th, 2011

So homecoming was this past weekend. It was pretty fun and I ended up spending the weekend at a friend’s house.

You should all go to Mom’s blog and check out the pics, I look ah-mazing (and Ash doesn’t look half bad either 😉 )

Here’s the link (you need to log in to see them though):

Friends vs. Best Friends…

Monday, September 19th, 2011

For those of you who are unaware, there is a major difference between “friends” and “Bestfriends” (all one word).  Something my Bestfriend and I have been doing for sometime now are comparisons between the two. You may have seen something similar on facebook, but for the most part we make our own- they get pretty extreme 😉

Here are some examples:

  • Friends have secret handshakes. Bestfriends make shadow puppets.
  • Friends: get together to make awesome memories. Bestfriends: lounge.
  • Friends have lots in common. Bestfriends have nothing in common and make fun of each others opinions.
  • When friends go over to each others homes they say “Hi!” When Bestfriends go over to each others homes they yell “I’m HOOMMEE!”
  • Friends tell each other what’s bothering them. Bestfriends play charades.

While we’re on this comparing note, my Bestfriend dropped by yesterday. Unannounced. Then told me to get out of my PJs- we’re going shopping. It was a fun and interesting day in Parker…
