One Year Anniversary!

We finally had our town hall meeting where Derek, Laura and I were recognized for our one year anniversary! We got these nifty plaques and a $100 gift certificate to giftcertifactes.com! I got mine for TJ Maxx and I can't wait for it to come!!

I LOVE PIER 1

When I went down to Bonaventure, Lindsay and I exchanged Christmas presents (we were both too lazy to mail!) and she gave me my Birthday present! One included a gift card to Pier 1 that I spent today!

I bought a new Springy runner for the table and two place mats!





This neat accent piece was on clearance for $10! I also got the vase and fake plants from pier 1 last year!



And this spoon holder was only $3! We needed one of these BADLY!



And Wendy bought us a new door "greeting!" :o)




Tonight for the first time ever I made Chicken Parmesan and it was FANTASTIC! Very delicious! I used Mom's canned tomatoes for sauce and my own fresh basil! Served on a bed of spaghetti! I will write it down on a recipe card later and file it away! :o)



Oh man and guess what was on TV tonight! THE WIZ! HAHAHA!



Last night I went with some friends to Dave & Buster's! It's pretty much an adult arcade with a bar and restuarant. We got beers and all raced each other! I felt like a kid!! Then we went across the street to a bowling alley for Karoake!!!! It was tons of fun!

Who's tired of snow?

I CAN'T WAIT FOR:




Tonight I was thinking about the time I ran away from home. I made it as far as our back yard, and set up camp under one of our cherry trees. Convinced I would live there forever, I busied myself by setting up my straw bed and collecting dandelions to eat later. All calls (and chuckles) from my mother went ignored. I don't remember what made me go back inside, or how long I actually stayed outside!

Awww to be young with complete innocence and imagination!


Other News:
Monday I handed in my Daffodil money to the American Cancer Society! Come March 10th, our office will be littered with $450 worth of beautiful, yellow, Daffodils!!

St. Bonaventure Alumni Weekend!

Well I have too many pictures to post and too many stories to tell!! So yes, I had TONS of fun!!

After 1.5 years, I FINALLY got to see my best friend again!! That's TOOO LONG!




This was pretty much our group all weekend. We stuck together and welcomed all! Here we are waiting for our Burton Bugers! YUM!!


Lindsay even brought my birthday present! (We also exchanged Christmas presents too! hahaha) One was this pink breast cancer cooler!! (Beer not included!)



After all the fun I still had the energy to come home and make hamburger soup, clean my room, clean the kitchen, scoop the kitty litter and sweep the bathroom AND bundle up the trash! WHEW!

Happy V Day!
