So my sister is getting married august 20th and I am quite excited for this because I get to be the maid of honor! I have never been a bridesmaid before but how bad can it be? I get a new dress out of it. Yesterday I got to plan a bit while I was in stirling and I always thought planning would be fun. I like writing out lists and thinking about the colors and the food but last night was less then joyful. I am working alongside with bridezilla. I warned her before not to become one and she promised she wouldnt and she lied to me because she just turned into one last night. We were planning flowers for most of the evening and the bride doesnt even have to worry about the flowers. Shoot me in the head! We did accomplish one thing however and that was the picking of the colors. By then, I didnt care if it was black and white. I think she finally decided on yellow, turquise and white and It actually looks quite lovely together. I am ready to take a trip somewhere really far away and just arrive back in time for the wedding. Ok ok ok. Im probably making it sound way more aggrevating then it really is. I love my sister to death but she is a very sensitive being and adds more stress to her life then what is needed and the stress is just going to get bigger and bigger and I just hope that there will be a wedding just after the effort we put into that one night of planning. This is making eloping sound alot more appealing. All in all The wedding will be interesting indeed. I just hope she doesnt come on here and read this or else I might not be the maid of honor anymore.... Really, I think that its great that she is getting married and I really do wish them the best. (hopefully if she does read this, I just redeemed myself). Anyway I need to go find something to eat. peace!

Happy EAster!
I just sat here for a half hour trying to think of a title for this blog when I didn't even have an idea of what Im going to write about yet. There is so much going through my mind right now that I could blab about almost anything. Anyone who knows me would know I love to talk and can talk about almost anything and everything, so really its not hard for me to pick a topic and write a couple blogs on it. Probably could go on forever on some things and I would run out of screen before something to talk about :) Anyway lets start with Easter since it was only yesterday and is still fresh on my mind. I actually celebrated easter on thursday with a couple friends. One of my best pals Stephanie and I planned a special easter double date with our boyfriends. We decided to make an easter gingerbread house since neither of us have ever made one and we wanted to do something fun and inexpensive. I made a tiny scavenger hunt for our boyfriends to find the candy to decorate our houses with while stephanie and I stayed back at the house to make the gingerbread (uh oh). I was so proud of my little riddles/clues that I came up with, there was only 6 of them which bought us enough time to finish doing whatever at the house. It actually worked out perfectly and we both got finished around the same time. While the boys were on their little scavenger hunt, of course me and steph were having issues back at the house. We hid the candy in the back of my truck where the last clue clearly states, but before, my genius friend steph put it in the back of a stranger's truck thinking it was mine so she had to go back and put it in the right truck hahaha. That was really funny. Then we started to make this ginger bread. I dont know if it was supposed to taste good but I can tell you that whatever WE made was disgusting. After Stephanie was done mixing it, I asked for a beater to lick and I dont know why I was expecting it to be alot like cookie dough but it clearly wasnt. The best part was that in the directions it tells you to put the dough in the fridge overnight but since we didnt have that time because I was positive the scavenger hunt wouldnt take that long even if it were the boys looking for the clues,(haha) we decided to skip that step and go ahead baking it. We had to burn the dough just so it would be hard enough to build our house with it. Finally after giving a dozen free clues to help the guys reach the end of the hunt, we got the candy and began decorating immediately. We split into 2 groups, and together with our dates we had to compete for the best gingerbread house. Corey and I won hands down. You should have seen the pics! I would have posted them on my blog but stephanie is being a poop and she wont send them to me. But me and Corey did win, she probably wont send them cuz she is so embarrassed that she lost. If you saw her work of "art" you would probably cry at how horrible it was. it was an epic fail. After that, we chucked them in the garbage even though we were starving but not hungry enough to eat burnt nasty gingerbread. (Right now I would be a little less hesitant) kidding, thats gross... That was our date. For easter sunday we went out to stirling for dinner and just to hang out. It was actually quite fun, I bought these goggles/ sunglasses for kara's dog, they are called doggles and she looked HILARIOUS! I got a couple pictures. see: 
Isnt she just adorable? She loves me <3.
