Missouri

I know I am a little late at posting our lastest blog but....


We had a great time in Missouri. We got in Saturday night and on Sunday we got up went to church ate some lunch with Jan, LaMar, MawMaw, MawMaw Jeanie, and Aunt Jen. That was fun! We then went to Blake's dad's side of the family! We had fun at MawMaw Flo's house, everybody was there and it was so good to see them! Blake and I just took it easy while in Missouri! We went and saw the movie Wanted with Angelina Jolie and Blake LOVED the movie... I wonder why? :) We went bowling and saw Hancock too! Then of course we saw TINA! Yes I got some new purses and some new wallets! I love Tina time! And it was fun to see her and her kids again! We had a blast in Missouri and cant wait to go back. Which will probably be Christmas! But here are a few pictures! By the way Jan made that American Flag dessert for Blake! It was so cute and so yummy!

Alabama

Blake and I had a great time in Alabama. We got to see our friends and my family. My mom's birthday is July 4th, so we went to the biscuits game on the 2nd for her and we watched the fireworks! We do this every year! Alabama was hot and we were loving it! We stayed in the pool a lot. but we didn't mind! :) Blake went out with the boys one night and i stayed home with my parents and some of the girlfriends! We had a lot of fun and was sad to leave. But now we are in Missouri and i will update on that when we get back to Washington!


Here are some pictures of the 4th. I was burnt so i put on a t-shirt hoping that Blake would not put me under water.... but he did! And the other one is a picture of one of my best friends, Leigh Walker!

Bret Michaels!




Well Friday night Blake, I and another couple went to the Bret Michaels concert at the Emerald Queen Casino. We had $20 a piece and we decided to try our hand at the slot machines before going to the concert. We had been saving some change here and there for the last couple of months just to gamble with. But Blake and I are not good at the slot machines! We both lost our $20. But our friend went in with $30 and came out with $139. He got lucky! :) But on to the concert! It was so much fun! There were a lot of older women though that were screaming and holding up signs! We thought it was pretty funny! We werent allowed to take pictures but I snuck some in anyways! I couldnt go to the concert and not take some pictures right?!

Daisy




Well yesterday Blake and I got a dog! She is so cute! She is a Maltipoo which is a Maltese and Poodle mixed! Her name is Daisy and she is the sweetest thing! She loves to sit in the chair with Blake and watch TV. We got her groomed today and put a little bow in her hair! The pictures are of Blake with Daisy in his lap, and her yesterday, and today when she finally got groomed!

Good Job Blake! Happy Graduation!

Well it is finally over and Blake did it! He passed Sniper School on Thursday June 5th. It was pretty cool! The class started out with 43 people and 33 graduated. Jan came up on Wednesday and surprised Blake. I told him I was going to the PX with my friend Hope and it took me like an hour to get back. He kept texting me, asking where I was and how much longer. But when I came home I had a little something for him..... his Mom! He was so excited! We spent the weekend hanging out and shopping! We had so much fun and I know that Blake was excited to get 4 days off!

Going Back to College

This past Tuesday I started school again. When Blake and I got married I had 2 more years left of school with Faulkner. Since we have been here I have been telling Blake that I wanted to back to school. So I finally bit the bullet and registered with Troy University. They are based out of Troy, Alabama. And I am taking online classes. I am currently taking Classical Mythology, Into to Sociology, Physical Science, Physical Science Lab, and Speech. I am hoping to have my degree in 8 to 10 months.
