Here comes the snow!

Thanksgiving this year was lots of fun. I spent the whole day with my family and friends. It was a blast. I experienced my first ginger bread house decorating. It was loads of fun and messy at the same time. I had a great weekend as well. I spend the weekend with my sister and their boyfriends who were in town. It's always nice to see them.

I was pretty excited to wake up and see that there was snow on the ground. I really do love the snow. The only thing that I really don't care for is driving in the snow. It is always such a hassle. Especially when you live in the middle of nowhere like I do. The roads are rarely plowed by my house so that makes it difficult and plus I have to leave much earlier to go somewhere after it snows or when it is snowing. What a bummer. It just makes me mad!

I do like the snow sometimes because it can really be fun at times. I like going sledding with my friends and making snow angels. The down side of that is the snow usually attracts to my body and then my clothes are wet and I get really cold. I guess that's just the price you pay when you do outside fun activities in the winter time though.

Favorite Time of Year!

This is my favorite time of year. Right after Halloween and fall almost over is the best time of year for me. Besides the snow and teh cold weather though. I could do without that. I love this time of year so much because of the holidays. Thanksgiving is coming up and all my family will be in town and get together. I really don't like the whole Thanksgiving meal though. I am actually a pretty picky eater. After Thanksgiving is over then comes Christmas. I love going out shopping for presents for others. It is so much fun. And then having to wrap the presents in all is also a fun task. After Christmas is over, then comes New Years Eve. A great holiday that I enjoy celebrating. Shorty after comes January 5th. Many of you readers are most likely asking yourselves, "What's so speacial about that day?" Well, January 5th is my brithday of course! That is a day that everyone can say they enjoy celebrating. Although, this year I will not be able to celebrate on the day of my birthday. I will actually be out of town 4 hours away for a basketball game. I am sure that I will still have funa nd enjoy myself, but I would much rather spend my birthday with my family and close friends.

Halloween Weekend.

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. It is the one day a year where I can dress up and be whomever I choose. This Halloween I worked at Features. I dressed up like a devil and my sister was bartending and she was an angel. Many people said that we should of switched costumes, but I liked me costume. It was a late night for me Friday night working. Although, I did make $100 waitressing. Then came along Saturday. My mom came in my room around 9:30 and made me try on a costume. She had made me a Wilma Flinstone costume for work Saturday night. At features on Saturday night we had a Halloween costume party along with our managers birthday party. There was a dj there and lots and lots of people. It was so busy that I could barely move throughout the bar area. I ended up working until 1 am. That isn't too bad considering my sister was there until 3:45 am. Sunday came and went pretty fast. I spent most of my day sleeping, working on my Nobel Laureate paper, and hanging with my family and boyfriend. It was a long weekend, but a fun one at that. I am just glad that I don't work for a couple weeks because now I can concentrate on school and basketball. :)
