Day 25: October 17, 2010

We had a music night at my house tonight. Got to work on my awesome banjo skills!

Day 24: October 16, 2010

PCA homecoming!!! I came home. AAAND... I got to hold the sign in the parade. I thought I was gonna be all by my lonesome, but we finally forced Landry Lawson into to come join!

Day 21: October 13, 2010

Taco soup day! Again with my boss being the best boss in the whole world... Ka brought us the most delicious taco soup and apple dump cake for lunch today. What a treat!

Day 23: October 15, 2010

We went on a writing center field trip today! I typically refer to anything that allows me to leave the dungeon as a "field trip," including going to the copy machine on the second floor. But this was like a legit field trip. Ka, David, Brandi, and I all drove out to Fort Worth for the North Texas Writing Center Association conference. It was really fun. We were acting like the hicks from out of town, gawking at the fancy school and taking pictures of everything. It was a blast.

Day 22: October 14, 2010

I went to a meeting with some people from Pioneer Bible Translators... I am SOOOO excited about possibly working with them. It was a great evening talking to peeps who have the same passions as i do.

Day 20: October 12, 2010

We all went over to Nana's house tonight to watch my Texas boys DOMINATE in the ALDS!!!

Here is the crew giving the "run like a deer" signal.

GO RANGERS!!

Day 19: October 11, 2010

Have a New Testament Midterm Tomorrow, So I Did Some Studying.

I Am Enjoying Capitalizing Every Word in this Post.

It Looks Like a Really Long Title or Something.

Day 18: October 10, 2010

It was absolutely gorgeous out today... and windy... so we took the sailboat out for a while.

Sailing is my favorite. :)

I say that a lot of things are my favorite. But sailing really is one of my favorites.

Day 17: October 9, 2010

Two pics again today! My seester and I went to the Mid-Cities Greek Fest today... definitely one of my favorite events... um, ever. We ate some Greek food, watched some Greek dancers, learned to Greek dance, and had a generally merry time.

We couldn't resist buying these amazing t-shirts.... OPA!!!

PS: urban dictionary defines "opa" as "a word that Greek people use for no apparent reason at all." Isn't that wonderful?? It's an expression of happiness/excitement... basically like saying "Hooray!" or something. I'm going to start using it ALL the time. :)

Day 16: October 8, 2010

Went to the prayer night for Kenya out at Southwestern, where I got to see the my other preggo friend, the lovely Morgan Hobbs!

Day 15: October 7, 2010

I sat at the "Power Table" at lunch with some awesome gals from SW today!

Later, I went to hang out with the 20-somethings group from FBC. We went and helped out at Mission Arlington for a while, then got some Frosties and headed to Eddie's. I leave you with this epic pic of Eddie Looper....

Day 14: October 6, 2010

Ate another famous New Mexico apple today.

Day 13: October 5, 2010

Old picture!!! But again, I left my camera at home, so I did not take any photos. :( But anywho, I went to go visit the famous ASHLEE KNUTSON tonight!!! Ashlee was my roomie in college. But then she got a new roomie. A husband. So now she lives in Cleburne. Lame. But, it gives me an excuse for a mini road trip.... especially because Ashlee is preggers!! So I went and looked at some sonogram pics and ate taco soup. I am so stoked for her and Tyler.

PS: This pic was taken a few years ago at the Young Life banquet

Day 12: October 4, 2010

I love sunsets. :)

Day 11: October 3, 2010

Last day in Bennington! This is my cousin Cian (who came all the way from Florida for this!) practicing his dulcimer skills. (Again, due to a lack of a camera, this pic is stolen from my seester!)

Day 10: October 2, 2010

We went to Oklahoma for a dulcimer festival that some good family friends put on. We had a blast... a good group of friends and family joined, and we learned some banjo and dulcimer, went four-wheeling, and watched my daddy auction ziploc bags full of beef. It was amazing.

We went on a night ride on Saturday night. Robin, Jessica, and I got the Mule to ride in... more protection from spider webs that way. Poor Jessica was bruised from bouncing around in the back, though! It was quite an adventurous event. We saw about a kajillion stars, got terribly lost, almost got eaten by a giant arachnid (and other bugs), and ran out of gas. Not as smooth as it could have gone, but I loved every minute! (I take that back... not the minute that I thought I was going to be eaten by a gargantuan spider.)

Day 9: October 1, 2010

Ok, so I got a little off track this last week. I left my camera at home when I left for the weekend in Oklahoma... so I had to steal a few photos from my seester. This pic is actually from Saturday morning... but it suffices. Again with ME making the rules for my blog. :)

This is me, Cara, and Robin doing model poses with our banjos. Aren't we glamorous?
