Ice Blocking

"Hey Emma, do you want to go ice blocking with me and Jeff? The correct answer is yes."

"Okay, you talked me into it."

Lyndsey and I sitting on our blocks

Jeff in "Luge" position...kinda

Tent Party!

Lyndsey said that she wanted to go camping the other night, but that wasn't an option.

So we did the next best thing:

This tent is set up in our living room!

Oh, and that's not Lyndsey's hand on my knee...that's mine.

Her arm is around Jeff and it just happened to line up perfectly with my hand.

Oh Grayden, you make me laugh!

We had a fun filled night of watching School of Rock and talking until like 3 in the morning!

It made getting up for work the next day not so awesome for Lyndsey, but it was definitely worth it!

This one's for you...

This is for all of you who:
Know that Dove chocolate does indeed fix everything.
Genuinely care about me.
Leave notes for me that you know I'll see that always always ALWAYS make my day.
Tell me that you love me unconditionally.
Say those profound things that I've heard zillions of times, but all of a sudden make an impact.
Understand where I've been and know where I'm going.
Can finish my sentences.
Can always make me smile.
Laugh at my (usually) stupid jokes.
Have told me that you're proud of me.
Know that there is a deeper meaning to Bubbles and Potato Salad. :)
Understand what I'm talking about when I say Potato Tots.
Compliment my cooking even when it's not the greatest.
Crawled into my bed with me when you knew I was crying just to give me a hug (just FYI, this only applies to Maci)
Pulled me onto their knee and held me while I cried.
Supported me even when I was failing.
Have lent me things even when it wasn't convenient.
Bring me down to earth.
Helped me separate Cross Stitch thread into the wee hours of the morning.


I LOVE YOU!
That is all :)

We're such tricksters ;)

A month or so ago a couple of my roommates decided that we were going to play a prank on Ryan.
He had this Mustang calendar hanging on his wall, so we decided that we were going to replace it.
With this...

At first we all just assigned ourselves to be one of the Disney princesses.

I was Belle, Lyndsey was Sleeping Beauty, Mystie was Cinderella, Kenna was Snow White, and Megan was Tiana. 

Then we realized that we didn't have anyone for Ariel....

So we assigned that to Jim Misner :)

Then we all decided we wanted to write our birthdays in there...

Then we decided to write random holidays in there...

Then we decided that this would be an excellent way to get food regularly.

So it developed into a full-time work schedule.

These are a few of my favorite days:

April 8th: Derek's birthday. Make #14 cake.

May is when we have Finals week, so of course we have him making us food every day of the week!

Saturday is our celebration of the end of Finals Week, so we allow him to celebrate with us...

As long as he provides the snacks.

The rest of the days are mainly random holidays that we pulled off of Lyndsey's weird holiday calendar.

I think this is my favorite.

August 10th: Lazy Day (An actual holiday): Don't cook for #14

August 11th: Back to work~ We want Dinner!

December 31st: Thanks cupcake! See you next year!

I guess a good thing to mention is that none of these food days actually happens :(

But it's funny seeing a princess calendar hanging up anyway!
