December BLC Meeting

We met at a Japanese restaurant in Georgetown for our December meeting. As always, we had a great time! Here is a picture that I stole from Ami :) Happy Holidays from the BLC!

Happy New Year!

I am leaving for WaterColor tomorrow night so I thought I would go ahead and wish everyone a Happy New Year! Sorry I have been slacking in the blog department, the holidays have been crazy this year. I will be in Florida for over a week and am so looking forward to a little break before next semester starts. See you in a week!

7 Reasons Why I'm Crazy

My friend Cameron tagged me on her blog for this "7 Things" post where you post 7 things about yourself that people may not know. Here is my list. I am not a very private person, so I'm sure several of these wont be a surprise for anyone :)

1) I would never get a tattoo. I do not dislike them on other people, but I am way to OCD and it would drive me NUTS that there was something on my body that I could not get off. Several of my friends have beautiful tattoos, so I think I will just enjoy from a distance.

2) Breck Tatem is easily the best thing that has ever happened to me.

3) I am so excited about becoming a nurse, however, I believe I was put on this earth to be a wife and mother. My greatest fear is that I will not be able to have children.

4) My new years resolution is to "go green." I am sadly very apathetic about my impact on the environment and hope to change my mindset in the coming year. (Cameron- you are the reason for this!)

5) I take a bubble bath every night, and sometimes during the day too...no matter what

6) I have never had a new years kiss...ever.

7) Out of all my friends, Emily and I have been friends the longest. Over 20 years!...and I wouldn't change anything about that ;)

Friends Thanksgiving Pictures

Warning- if you read Maria's blog, this post will not at all interest you. I am stealing her photos that she already put up :)I have some family that read this blog and I wanted to be sure they saw the pictures too!

We had such a great time! Everyone brought their favorite Thanksgiving dish and I took care of the turkey. After dinner we all played Apples to Apples and Scattergories (2 group favorites)...I love my friends! Here are a few of the pictures...
