My Week - Pictures Galore!

Longest post ever!!! Sorry I have been MIA the past couple of days...I have just been enjoying my Spring Break! I have spent most of my break just relaxing by the pool and going to the Houston Rodeo!

*********************************

Wednesday Kimberly and I went to the Rodeo to see Gary Allan. We always enjoy looking at the livestock, going to the carnival, and eating! LOL. Afterwards, we went to the Hideout to watch The Josh Abbott Band. The Hideout is in a small tent they have set up outside the actual rodeo for smaller bands to play in after the big performance. It was fun!

Friday we drove to Cy-Fair to meet up with my friend Kristan and cousin Caitlin. Kristan invited us to go with her to the Rodeo to see the Eli Young Band. Have y'all ever heard of them before? Mike Eli actually grew up right around where I live! Also, he graduated from the University of North Texas where Kimberly goes to school.

This weekend Kimberly, my mom, and I went to get manicures/pedicures! I decided to get solar nails put on....I haven't had solar nails in forever!!! Afterwards, we went and ate at Chili's....we got 50% off since Kimberly works for Brinker!

Last night we went to see Valentines Day. We thought it was SO cute! Have y'all seen it yet?! It has so many stars in it!
We have also been spending our time doing this....but by a pool and not on the beach! :(
I hope to have a good tan by the end of break! Last night we also watched "The Price of Beauty" - Jessica Simpson's new reality TV show. I love Jessica....I remember being so upset when her and Nick broke up! Ha! Her new show is about women around the world and how beauty is seen in other countries. Have y'all heard about it?
Have a great Tuesday!

Girls SB09 Trip!

Kristan and I on the ride up to Padre!

We finally made it back from South Padre Monday night! We had a great time!! We left Friday afternoon around 1:00...we had to pack the car when it was raining and cold! That was not fun! We took two separate cars since 5 people were going and all of us had so much stuff to take. Kimberly and Kristan rode with me and Jessica rode with Cait. It wasn't too bad of a drive. I think since I was not riding alone made it easier. We also made a few CD's to listen to in the car the night before. It should of only took us 7 hours but we stopped a couple of times to get gas and to eat. We stopped and ate dinner in Harlingen at Chili's.

After dinner we decided to stop at Wal-Mart before crossing the bridge to get to Padre so we could get stuff for the weekend. We ended up getting to the motel around 11. When we first pulled up we were thinking man what a nice place! Ha! Just kidding! This motel is not open 24/7 so they had a key for us in the night box. When we walked in it smelled pretty bad and Kim saw a bug on the floor. Kimberly said that next year she is making the reservations! We decided to take a walk on the beach that night...but that did not last too long because of the cold wind. That night we just hung out in the motel and played games with Justin and Cody who live in College Station as well. (They are Caitlin's boyfriend Matt's friends). The next morning it was STILL rainy and cold! We all got up and decided to go eat at Pizza Hut.

Kimberly and IThat night we went to a club called Louie's. Even though it was freezing that night we still wanted to wear our new spring break clothes that we had bought! We thought it would not be to bad since we would only have to be outside just to get into the club. But we were wrong! Louies is an outside bar/club and it was freeezing! We didn't stay there too long because it was cold and really expensive. Cody grew up really close to Padre so he knows a lot of people down there. So after Louie's we decided to go get in his bosses boat to watch a movie. It was sooo nice! It had a couch, big screen tv, refrigerator, bathroom and everything in it!

The next day was STILL cold and wet. :( We went and ate seafood at place that Greg's friend owns. It was pretty good! Afterwards, we decided to go swimming in the motel pool since they had it heated. That day we met some people Texas Tech and had dinner with them that night. We ate at this really good restaurant called Amberjack's. I had coconut shrimp which I love! My friend Kaitlyn from back home was in Padre this past weekend too and she came up to Amberjack's to have a drink with us. That night we went back to the motel and partied some more with the people we met from Tech!

Texas Tech Friends at Amberjacks!

Now to the funny/scary part of the trip! Later that night while we were still hanging out with our new Texas Tech friends we see this girl walking up with these Hispanic boys (who are staying in a room right by us). The Hispanic guys were all over this girl and looked like they were trying to force her in to their room. We were really nice to this girl and told her that she could hang out with us. She said that she went to Tech and she was down on Spring Break with her friends. She said she just got back from the club. For some reason she got kicked out, lost her phone, and lost her ID. She thought she was getting in a taxi but somehow these Hispanic guys picked her up. And she did not know any of her friends numbers who were still at the club. She told us that she was really scared that the guys who picked her up were part of the drug mafia. Awhile later Cait got to thinking that the whole thing seemed really shady and weird. We decided that she did not need to stay with us. We thought that maybe the whole thing was a set up or something. The Tech guys were really nice and took her home. Anyways, we go to bed and around 6 AM we get woken up to this BEEP BEEP BEEP noise. Cait gets up and think it is coming from our door. We all get scared thinking that maybe these Hispanic guys put a bomb outside our door! Cait's the first one who tries to attempt to open the door...but then backs out. Then Kimberly decides she will be brave and open it...then she backs out. Then we were thinking maybe these guys were trying to lure us out! I'm on the phone calling the front desk to tell them about the noise. (Which they did not answer bc they do not open till 8am). Finally, Cait realizes that the BEEP noise is coming from Kristan's IPOD home! Haha! We were cracking up! We could see us being in the South Padre news! 5 girls calling the police for thinking they hear a bomb going off! Ha!

The next morning was BEAUTIFUL! Just are luck! We left around 1:30 to head back to College Station! :( We got back last night around 8. We had a great time!! I am now back in Conroe for the rest of spring break. Kimberly is leaving tomorrow and then on Friday I am going to the Rodeo to see Taylor Swift!!

Spring Break Shopping

Yesterday after classes at Blinn I had to hurry and get to A&M for a tutoring session. On the way back I ran into my friend Kristan and I took the bus with her back home. Luckily, I remembered right when Kristan was about to get off the bus that my car was still on campus! Ha! She was nice and drove me to pick up my car. Afterwards, my cousin Caitlin and I went shopping. I need some cute sun dresses and a swimsuit for Padre. I did not have any luck at the mall :( The only thing I bought there was a coverup for my swim suit from Charlotte Russe for only $2.50! That made me happy! We went to Kohls after the mall and I found a this cute sun dress!

Kimberly is coming down tonight and she is staying at my parents house. Then tomorrow she is going to come to College Station so we can leave on Friday for Padre! I have two more tests this week then I'm done! Thank god! I think this week has probably been my most stressful out of the whole semester. I mean come on...why do professors have to make us take tests and write papers the week before Spring Break? Don't they know we have better stuff to do like shop, tan, and pack! Ha! We leave in 2 days...Spring Break South Padre 2009!

Spring Break and The Bachelor

This year we have all decided to take a spring break trip to South Padre Island for three nights. I have not been to Padre in years..we use to go alot a long time ago. It's going to be me, my cousin Catlin, our friend Kristan, my best friend Kimberly, and possibly a couple more girls. I have not been on a spring break trip in college yet so this should be interesting! We just made reservations the other day at a motel...it's not going to be a Marriott or anything! Ha! We had to go cheap as possible and being spring break week the hotel's have jacked all the prices up! Last year Kimberly and I went to Galveston for the day during Spring Break. I'm sure Padre will be ALOT nicer than Galveston!

I was on People.com earlier and they posted the ring that Jason is suppose to give either Melissa or Molly next Monday night. Its a 3.18 diamond cut. Here is a picture of it!
