So I haven't blogged in 400 years because I can never get this stinking website to work! But today, magically, it is up and running perfect so I thought I better take advantage of it while I can!
We went to Memphis with our parents the first weekend of October and had so much fun! It was a very much needed break from work, school, and church work! We went to these two awesome restraunts called Rendezvous which is a rib place and The Pier which is a fancier restraunt that looks over the Mississippi River. They were both so good so if you are ever in Memphis, you definitely should go to those 2 places!!
This past weekend was extremely busy. We went to Columbia, Ms on thursday (10.16.08) to have dinner with Mitch and Brandy Rose and to go to their church's outreach event for the local highschool called "5th quarter" after the football game. It was really fun! They had the Columbia high school drumline play then Royal Tailor Band did a concert and of course they were great! Their lead singer Tauren sang at our wedding if that helps any of you know who they are lol. After 5th quarter we stayed the night with Nate and Shera Rios the Student pastor of Woodlawn. He and Cliff were supposed to go golfing on Friday morning for Nate's birthday but we all stayed up talking until 5 am and when we finally woke up on saturday it was raining so they decided to stay in and play xbox 360 all day! lol! I had lunch with Amber Mac then came back to the Rios' house and chilled with Shera all day and played with their 4 boys! We went out for dinner at the Wingery and then came back to Meridian late Friday night!
Of course we boarded Elvis and I picked him up Saturday at noon. After I picked him up I went to get a pizza from Little Ceasars which is on one of the busiest roads in Meridian called North Hills St. When I opened my door to get out Elvis jumped out of the car and took off running as fast as he could!! I started screaming for him to come back but he didn't listen! He ran straight to the edge of the road and started chasing cars, never actually getting in the raod thank God!! He fnally came back to me when I yelled "Elvis do you want a treat!?!?" haha he will do ANYTHING for a treat! I was crying and shaking and so mad at him! I got him in the car and closed the door to go into little ceasars and this lady was standing there and said "Not exaxtly the best place to let your dog out for a joy run" ugh if you could of heard her attitude and the way she said it you would have died. I was already really upset so I kind of yelled at her...haha I was like "do you honestly think I let my dog run on the busiest street in Meridian? I'm not an idiot!" Then she smiled and made this humph noise so I was just told her that she better mind her own business and not say one more word to me and walked past her. When I came out she was gone whch made me happy because when I calmed down I felt bad and kinda embarrassed for snapping at her like that lol. Oh well!
School is going really well! I dropped my physics class because it was so hard and I was doing really bad in it! I was taking the one day a week class which is an excelled pace class and I need to take that stuff with the slow pace schedule! I am terrible at science and math. So now instead of taking 6 classes I am only taking 5! Midterms came out last week and I have 4 A's and a C! I am pretty sure I can get the C up though so I am not really worrying about it. We have only had 2 tests and I got a 74 on the first on and an 82 on the 2nd one and those are the only 2 grades we have in that class which puts my average at a 78! I should be able to get it to at least a B by finals! Well I think that is about it! Other than I pretty much lost all respect for Colin Powell yesterday when he came out and supported Obama...I am ready for this election to be done and over with! McCain-Palin 08!!!
Also, Cliff and I should be coming to town for Christmas December 19th if all goes as planned! I can't wait!
Hopefully I'll be able to update soon!
