A Trip to the Beach

Mom and I took the three dogs to the beach Saturday morning. This was Rockis' first trip ever. He loved running in the sand and chasing the seagulls and pelicans. He would run up to the water then stop short ever time. He got hit by a wave once and wanted nothing to do with it anymore, I think it was too cold for his taste.

Okay OKAY!!!

Let's see, what has happened since the last time I blogged? I finished all of my Christmas shopping early this year. No last minute shopping for me, thank goodness!!! The 23rd was the family dinner at the Coles'. It was fun running around play ing with silly string with Savannah, Chad and Brianne. I still laugh every time I think about the look on the twins face when they got silly stringed for the first time. As the party wore on Dwight broke out the karaoke machine, fun times ensued. Around 6 or 7 Alexa came up to me and sat on my lap then layed her head on my shoulder. These are one of the times I miss Kierra the most, I can't help but think that this should be Kierra sitting here with her daughter on her lap.
On Christmas I had some kind of stomach bug, and was sick all day absolutly miserable. Got some awsome gifts, alot of stuff for my room.

I am a Woman Obsessed

With crocheting!!! Seeing as how I am an unemployed full time college student, I don't have alot of money to be spending on Christmas gifts this year. So I decided to make scarves for my grandmother and my aunt. I thought that I wouldn't be done with them until a couple days before Christmas, but I ended up finishing both scarves in 2 days!!! That just wasn't enough, I wanted to make more stuff!!! So I ended up making a scarf for myself and a matching hat. I am really proud of the hat, because I never learned how to read crochet patterns, so I had to come up with my own design. After 3 tries I found a design that worked and the hat is so cute!!! I am excited to use the scarf and hat when I go horseback riding again.
Anyway other than that, I watched the twins and Hunter Friday and Saturday and with them being sick, I of course caught a bit of it. I am almost over it though. I took my last final Wednesday morning, YAY!!! Finals were pretty easy this semester. I will be taking next semester off to work full time. I just don't have the funds to start any classes in the spring. So I will continue my education in the summer. Which kind of makes me happy. I am having some serious issues with deciding what I want to be.
I am excited about the Holidays, this will be my babies first Christmas. My baby Rocki!!! I got him a Christmasy(sp?) collar today. And of course he looks so adorable!!! And you know I will post pictures later!!!
