This is a random picture from when I visited Seattle a year and a half or so ago..I love it. I loved everything about the pacific northwest! It was so beautiful! I love the ferry rides, I loved the trees, I have to admit, I even loved the weather for the most part. I cannot wait till I can go back someday! The scenery is some of the most beautiful I have EVER seen. I love taking scenic photographs, and I will someday have my entire house decorated with black and white photographs! Makes me smile. I have been home sick the past couple days and I must be getting tired of being couped up... :).
Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I have to work, but thats ok. I get to go home to my parents after my 8 hour shift and I have all weekend off! I am excited to spend time with family. Abby and Brad will be home too...even though I feel like I just saw them, I can't wait to see them again. I probablly see them more than my own family...oops.
My uncle Keith is having a pool party..no, not that kind of pool. He re-did my great grandpas slate pool table and we are gonna have a pool party/Thanksgiving at his place in Sac City! It should be fun! I hope a lot of my cousins get to come! My cousin Mike moved to Virginia this spring, and from what I understand, he will not be home for the holidays at all this year. Kinda sad!
My buddy Adam from out in Maryland gave me some good news--on his drive back to Nebraska for the holidays (around Christmas) he is planning on stopping and visiting me! That will be a good time ;). He has yet to meet Mr. Winston Snohomish! That should be interesting...haha.
Also, I got an invitation to Anders wedding. I really want to go! Its kind of short notice-Jan 9th. I asked Adam if he would be able to drive to DC and pick me and Abby and Brad up and escorte us aka. drive us to the wedding and around that weekend..hehe.. Keep your fingers crossed that it all works out! It would be so much fun!! Besides I miss Anders a lot!! We used to hang out all the time in Ames. Anders is the absolutely best guy in the world! Lindsay is a lucky lucky girl!!!
So, can you believe that Christmas is in about 4 weeks?! I have NO shopping done yet! eeek! This year I dont even have any good ideas for people! I need some serious help in that department! The first weekend of December, I am going shopping with my sister, my mom, and my sisters mother in law Joanie...who is an absolute RIOT!! Its ALWAYS a good time with her! So that should be a fun time..and hopefully I get a BIG dent in my Christmas shopping accomplished!
Well...thats all I know at the moment. Have a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving!
xoxo, me
