Last Night

As you can see, I am experiencing a lot of "last" things here lately. Well, tonight is my last night staying at Karla's house. We ate our favorite bread sticks together (PJ's parmesan encrusted breadstix), make our favorite cookies together(Christmas cut-out cookies), watched our favorite movie together (Pride & Prejudice) and we smoked cigars together (my first ever). I promised her a couple months ago that we would smoke cigars my last night in the condo - I really thought she would forget!! :)

It's a little sad. I'll be honest. This has been my home for the last year and a half and I've enjoyed it immensely. I've certainly been blessed to get to know this girl a bit better. We've rubbed off on each other...that's for sure. She burps now and I'll accidently let out a cuss word every now and then. Shameful, I know. :) But, she's rubbed off on me in plenty of other great ways too. Her faith in God and her walk with Christ have definitely been a testimony to me. I've watched her go through a pretty tough year and still make it through with a smile and a belly laugh every now and then. Thankfully, I will still see her everyday at work and won't have to say goodbye forever. How we worked and lived together the last 18 months and didn't kill each other will always be a mystery to me. Funny. Her personality and mine just mix I guess. It's good to know because her and Max are practically the same person. This means good things for my future. If I can live with Karla, surely I can handle Max! haha
Well, we'll see about that!! 10 more days people...10 more days. This is crazy!

Good night Karla and good night all.

Last Day

So today is my last official day in the office in the year 2007! AAAHHHH! It feels great. Now, I will be at church this weekend with the kiddos, but that part of my job is WAY fun! Vacation is looking pretty dang good right now. Everyone needs a break once in awhile. I'm just glad that mine gets to be like 18 days! What a dream:) It feels good to be 12 days away from getting married and even less than that til Christmas! All this excitement...I can barely contain myself! YIPPEE!!

White Elephant Gifts

We had a great time at our Team Christmas Party at PF Changs yesterday. This is our third year that we have had our Christmas lunch there. We all eat yummy food and then we exchange gifts with each other, and the final activity is when Steve buys a variety of $20 gifts and allows us to choose which one we want. They are all wrapped up and one at a time we pick one and open it. The next person decides if they want our gift or if they want to open a new one. It goes around the circle and we all end up stealing others gifts and having a good time. Well, this year I ended up with the Back to the Future Trilogy!!! Those are my favorite movies EVER!! It was the first present to be opened and I guaranteed myself that I would steal that gift fair and square. haha! And I did!! I walked out with the best white elephant gift of my whole life. Sorry Jim. :)

I'll be having a Michael J. Fox marathon at my house very soon!

You know what annoys the snot out of me...
People who leave obnoxious comments on your blog and then don't have the courage to leave their name. Then I have to go to the trouble of deleting your comment and then wonder who saw the comment before I deleted it. Thanks a million.

Come on people...

Can You Believe It?

So it is 5 minutes past midnight and I just saw that the blingy blob has crossed the final threshold. We are down to "00" months people! Wow. This is real isn't it! We had our last pre-marital session the other night and got the "ok" to get married. :) I just had my last shower tonight - which was AWESOME by the way. We laughed harder and louder than I've ever laughed before. Gosh, I love my friends. I am so blessed. Anyways.

Time is ticking. Thankful for that. The closer we get...the more real it becomes. Sara Semenick. Better get used to that, huh.

Good night world. It's been a good one.
