Windows down, Music loud, Wind blowing through my hair

I have been wanting to write on my blog for awhile now but as I sit here I'm trying to figure out what to write about... you would think I would have an idea by now. Right?

This week has been filled with much rain (bleh) but Darci and I finally had the chance to lay by the pool for 2 hours today! Yes! Our pool time was followed up by dinner from Red Rock in Stillwater and hanging out until SYTYCD (So You Think You Can Dance if you didn't know...) came on. By the way, I hate that SYTYCD is on two nights in a row. I usually work on Wednesday nights so I never get to watch the amazing dancing! Anyone else have this problem?

For the past 2 weeks my life has been consumed in Spanish online, Literacy, and working. Spanish is not going so well but I know if I work hard I can probably pass the class, which is all I'm asking for at this point. I will start tutoring a student for my literacy class on Monday. We will be working with the students on reading, writing, and spelling. I am very nervous about preparing lesson plans and providing a positive learning experience for my tutee!

Things I have enjoyed lately...

1) class with Darci and Amy

2) meeting new people

3) visiting friends in Dallas (Ashley, Rachel, and Amy)

4) drinks with Rachel in Dallas

5) reading my new bible (Women's Devotional Bible)

6) journaling, reading, and blogging when I have the chance!

7) listening to GLEE volume 3 soundtrack along with Lady Antebellum CD and Courtyard   Hounds CD especially when driving with the windows down at night (truly wonderful)

8) Laying by the pool  and relaxing : )




I leave you with a  couple of pictures from the Rangerette days ---> hoping to blog more about this soon! I've been thinking about my friends and memories from Rangerettes so much lately!

Cheesecake and Birthdays


My sister turned 18 this past Monday and the family celebrated by eating out at the Cheesecake Factory in Tulsa on Sunday night! They recently added 30 new items to their menu... because their book/menu wasn't big enough already? I'm definitely feeling old as I creep towards 23 this September and as Jess turned 18. Does anyone else feel like turning 18 happened just yesterday? I sure feel this way. Can't believe that was almost 5 years ago! Nothing much to update about just wanted to share this picture with everyone.

Side note: My new dream vacation is traveling to Rome to see the Sistine Chapel. Studied this in my art history class yesterday and decided this was something I wanted to do one day.
