My life summed up in pictures!

I haven't updated in a long time and to much has happened between then and now, so I am going to sum it all up with some pictures!

YAY Clark graduated!! It was a very good day and weekend. My mom and his family came to Lubbock. I am very proud of him :)

Also that weekend we got to celebrate Ed (Clark's dad) 50th birthday!


The next week Clark went out of town a few times for office visits at accounting firms. One night when I took Clark to the airport, we left Chance out of his kennel. Lets just say he will never be left out of the kennel alone again. This is only part of the damage!


The next weekend, one of Clark's best friends from high school got married. We flew to Houston and the wedding was gorgeous! Lets just say I'm a little jealous...but very happy for them!

Daves beach house

FINALLY we got to take a vacation to Clark's beach house in Galveston. The water was to cold and weather wasn't perfect but it was very relaxing. The last two pictures are some of the houses along the shore that were damaged from hurricane Ike. A lot of the houses directly on the beach were pretty torn up and once the tide touched the house, they became Galveston property and some of the houses were well over a million dollars.

Now we are back in Lubbock just working. I start summer school this week. I'm not to excited but at least that's anther class out of the way. I also get to go home this weekend...yay! I haven't been home since spring break. Way to long for me!! Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day!

P.S. The new season of Jon & Kate Plus 8 comes on tonight. SO EXCITED!!! The previews look good and they confront each other. Maybe this will set all the rumors straight. Its on TLC @ 8 for an hour!!!

Happy Mother's Day

So yesterday was Mother's Day and I actually got to spend time with my mom. This past weekend she came to Lubbock for Clark's graduation (I'll blog on that later). I was so happy she came because I hadn't seen her since Spring Break in early March. She stayed with me at my apartment and it was fun. Saturday we made breakfast then went shopping. I miss my shopping days with her. But very soon I will have them back. You never know how much you miss your mom or parents till you move away. My mom is my best friend. Ever since high school I saw her everyday. She worked at high school I went too. Most kids would hate that, but I actually loved it. Except for her getting me out of class and trouble, I was able to go to her when I needed her. She has always been there for me no matter what. Whats really scary is that everyday I see myself doing things like she does, but who wouldn't want to be like my mom.? She has the biggest heart for her kids and would give anything just to make us happy. I hope that one day I am at least half of the mom that she is.

I LOVE YOU MOM!

White Trash Formal?...and the weekend!

Well I had a very eventful weekend! Friday I got off early from work which was amazing because the 4 1/2 hours I was there I did nothing. I got to go home and take a nice nap. Friday night was my sororities formal. I was pretty excited cause our parties are actually fun. We got all dressed up and and big group of us went to Outback Steak House. SOOO GOOD! I haven't been there in awhile. After dinner we headed to one of my friends apartments and pre-partied for awhile before we went to the party. So here's where the white trash comes in. So totally not trying to brag and not like I'm rich or anything but my sorority is pretty well off. Our alumni love us. Usually formals are in big buildings with tables and a band so you can dance (at least it was last year). We go to our lodge and wait on the limo provided for us to pick us up. Well we look all nice in a big limo and pull up to the smallest BAR in Lubbock. I was very disappointed!! I felt like white trash walking into my formal. If I would have known I was going to a bar I would have worn normal clothes. Lets just say Clark and I were there for about 45 min. then left.

Saturday Clark had a baseball tournament, which he got to play on Tech's baseball field. They lost but at least I got a nice sun tan. That night was his fraternities Toga party. Last year I went all out and bought a toga while having the stomach flu, but this year I decided I was not going to spend the money on a toga. It was fun!

Sunday MY DADDY CAME TO SEE MEE!!! He went on a guys motorcycle trip this weekend to Big Bend National Park. He decided to split from the group on Sunday and come to Lubbock to see his favorite daughter! I didn't get to see him for very long but I was still very happy I got to see him. He took Clark and I out to lunch then he headed home. He had a hard time getting home cause of the weather but he said I was worth it! I haven't gotten to see my family in a long time. My mom is coming out for Clark's graduation on May 8th then I am going on the end of May. I cant wait to move home where I can be closer to everyone. I miss my family!

It's a sad day in the neighborhood

So this morning as I was getting ready, my hair straightener died. I sucked all the life out of it trying to straighten my hair with very little heat this morning. It was a little sad cause I had it since my freshman year in high school, 6 years ago! It was a good straightener too. I gonna miss it cause it went with me on every trip and every girls house I went and spent the night at. So now I have to go buy a new one and I have no clue what to get. I used to hear Chi's were good but now I am hearing there are better ones. I don't want to spend a lot of money though. I need something reasonable though cause I have thick, wavy hair and its gotta help me on those rainy days. Have any ideas??

Pioneers and the Mavericks!

So it is offical... I am going to be a TWU Pioneer next year! I dont know if that is something to get excited about though. I know it is a good school, they just dont have a dang football team. I'll still root for Tech though. I am happy to be going home, I will get to see my family more and not be 5 hours away from Clark. He got in to UTA...YAY!! After the let downs of Tech and UTD he was pretty stressed about grad school. We flew home two weekends ago for a wedding and right after we landed he got the email. His mom and I were screaming in the car. So next year is going to be totally different for us, but it is all for the better!

Here is a picture of us before going to the wedding!

Cold weather go away...come again another day!

I am very upset that it is supposed to snow tomorrow. Its almost April, I am ready for warm weather and cute clothes!! Lets just hope if it does snow that it will be late tomorrow night. Clark and I are flying out tomorrow around 1:30 and I dont want to get delayed. We have a wedding to go to back at home and I am excited cause I will get to meet more of Clark's friends. Poor Chancey Pants doesnt get to go though. I feel so bad when we both leave him cause he gets so confused of where we are.

So I have a countdown going and its only 5 more weeks of school after this week. YAY so excited, im so ready for summer. Although I probably will be taking summer school and working. But I have decided that I am moving home next year. I am going to be going to TWU and finishing school there. Im am excited to be going home. I wont be 5 hours away from Clark and living at home for awhile will help me save money. I have also decided no more roommates. I never thought I would want to live by myself but I do. Next person I live with is Clark when we are married.

Yes Lindsey I watched American Idol last night and I am sick of the judges. They dont make any sense and all they do is fight and it is annoying.
