Playing Katchup...Yum!!

So...I KNOW!! It sure has been a long time since this blog has been updated. Something Morgan and I did not plan on with having this blog was that college would be so busy that we would not be able to update as often as we hoped. I guess the good part is that I am doing it now! And you will finally be able to hear all about what has happened in the past...if I can remember it all ;)

So when we left off...That's right, Fall Break was just beginning...

Morgan and I both went to our morning class on Friday and then after that we packed up all of our stuff and we headed to Richmond. Well, really we got back to the apartment and Morgan left around 11 and I left around 12:30 because I didn’t pack my stuff the night before. When I finally got my things pack and put into the car, I hit the road. When I got back into town, I met my sister and mom at Wendy’s to have lunch. As soon as I walked in, I noticed that there was a guy lying on the floor having a Seizure!! There wasn’t anything I could do; we had not read anything in my book about helping people in that situation. Anyways, the paramedics can and they helped him out. So after that even we were able to eat our food and have good conversation. After lunch, Stephanie and I went back to my dad’s house so I could get my laundry started. That did not take too much time, then my sister brought out her new long board and we were outside for a while trying it out.

That evening, I left the house to go to the Allen’s house so I could see the four of them again. We went to Pizza King to have pizza and talk about college and stuff. I had a good time being with them again. It felt like old times. I think we went back to their house after that and watched some TV…pretty sure it was Big Break that we watched until I decided I was too tired to stay any longer and risk falling asleep as I drove home.

The next day was Saturday and Sam planned on having lunch with me. After I got ready for the day, I decided I wanted to stop at the mall and get a few winter clothes. I tried to stay there as long as possible so that Sam could meet me at Chipotle for lunch, but he took a long time and I didn’t have anything else to do so I went to Glen Miller to wait for him. That didn’t work either, so I just went home and he picked it up and brought it to my house instead.

When I got back home, my dad and brother we outside playing ladder ball so I watched until I could have a turn. Finally I got to play against my brother and I won! By that time, Sam got there and I was starving. We ate food, and at the same time I introduced Sam to the best show ever, Psych. He actually enjoyed it like I knew he would. From there my dad asked if we wanted to go walk the bike trail with him and Austin, so we agreed. Sam brought his camera and we had a good time walking, and catching up on conversation.

After we got back to the cars, Sam took me to Starbucks because I thought it sounded so delicious! I got the pumpkin pie drink aka the pumpkin spice frappachino. We sat outside until Sam brought me back because he had to go to his friend’s house. That night I laid in bed watching Psych =)

The next day was Sunday and I went to church at CPC. After that Sam and I headed to best buy because he wanted to get some things and I needed to get my new computer checked out. I was having really bad stomach pains so when I did talk to the Geek Squad I was completely distracted and annoyed because the guy wanted I to pay him 200 dollars to get something put on the computer...UGH. I had enough and found Sam and we left to go back to his house for lunch. I couldn’t even think about that because I felt too nauseous. I took some Tylenol at his house and had to lie on the couch for close to an hour before I felt better. His family came over to celebrate September birthdays and we had very very very good food. That evening Cody Dale met up with Sam and I and we went to see Real Steel at the movie theater. It’s pretty much a MUST SEE movie. It’s the best.

Monday was the day that Sam had to leave to go back to college, but we did get to spend half the day together. First we went to his grandma gingers house to spend some time with her, and then we went to subway for lunch. We brought it back to his house to eat as we watched an episode of Psych. Then I left to go back home. Morgan came over for a little while that evening, but then left to watch a show with her family.

The next day, Tuesday, I cannot remember what I did.

Wednesday was the day Morgan and I went back to Cincinnati. When we got back, Bailey came over and we headed to CRU. After that Bailey stayed over. We spent the next evening studying so much for our Nursing Exam which was a tough one, but I turned out with an 87% which is not too shabby. From that day, Bailey started practically living with us ha ha! We have had so many things to study for, she has just stayed here. We had a biology lab exam that we spent so much time studying for, and I got an 88% on it! I was so happy my hard work paid off. During our study periods we made time to have Bdubbs and we ordered 50 wings, along with making a stop at Greaters for some cotton candy ice cream. All in all we love having Bailey over to hang out with. She is the best and the most fun to be around. She literally never stops laughing…she thinks I am funny.

On the 21^st of September the three of us went back to Richmond because Morgan wanted to visit Ben and the Harrington family since it was Molly and Bens fall break at Grove City. Morgan left early, but bailey and I left around three. My older brother was back in Richmond from Korea. It was so good to see him again. That night my dad, Philip, bailey, and I went out to eat at El Rodeo. Bailey and I learned about Simon’s cat that night. Such good You Tube videos! After that we stopped at Wal-Mart and bailey and I bought hair dye to color our hair. She got blonde and I got my favorite – Red! That night we made out hair real pretty!

The next day we got up and ate French toast my dad made, and then my brother took us to the Circle center mall. We had a great day there with him. When we got back, bailey and I got ready for the Fall Festival thing for CPC at the Golden’s house. That was a fun event. There was a hay ride, caramel apples, hot apple cider, and of course all the wonderful people I had been missing. After that, bailey and I were going to go to a haunted attraction, but decided not to. Instead we went and hung out at the Harrington’s house. After we left, we rented a scary movie to watch at my house. Paranormal Activity 2.

 

The next day, we went to church and then later that day we headed back to Cincinnati. That weekend was such a fun and happy one.

This week was just a normal busy week, and we had a lot of reading to do for an upcoming Exam next week.

That’s about it for now. Hopefully we won’t let it go too long again before another entry is up =)

The week of FUN pictures:)

So I will start off by talking about Sunday where we last left off. We woke up, ate breakfast, and then headed to the Kopp's church. Nick was playing that day:) Church was great and then we headed back to the Freemire's house where we ate all kinds of leftovers for lunch. Sam and Jaimee went out together to Chipotle for lunch:) Then we pretty much all sat around until 2 in the afternoon when it was time to leave. We took pictures and said our goodbyes and then we were on our way back to Cincinnati! We once again took 2 hour shifts. Bailey drove first, me second, and Jaimee third. The end of my shift was when we dropped of Ross. After we dropped him off, we were back on the road again. Son after we started driving again we got hungry and decided to stop at Taco Bell for something. We got back home kinda late and went straight to bed. We got up for class at 7 and the rest of the day did school work. Sam came over in the evening and we made oreo balls though! So that was a plus! It took us forever to get our homework done but we finally got it completed around 11. We then watched a movie and headed to bed. All of tuesday and then Wednesday morning all consisted of school. Then came Wednesday evening! It was CRU time:) We all love cru it is so great! Jaimee and I curled our hair and we headed over to Bailey's house to do Module 7 for our online class before going to Cru. Cru was great like always and it was soon time to leave. As we walked up the stairs we passed by all the candy machines and decided to take pictures! We took so many pictures that night. It was sooo fun:) I will post some of them below! As for today not much went on except Jaimee and I had a major cleaning day where we cleaned the WHOLE apartment:) We decided it would be a great idea since we are leaving for fall break so we can come back to a clean apartment! After we cleaned we decided to make some dinner and watched our weekly shows of modern family and Survivior. Then we went ahead and did Module 9 for our online class! We are like 3 weeks ahead in this class. Its great! Now we are getting ready for bed so we can go to our 9am class in the morning. That is our last class until FALL BREAK!!! No class until Thursday next week!!!!!!

Busy Busy!!

I know, it has been so long since a new blog has been put up, but Morgan and I have been so very busy and there just has not been time. I will not remember everything that has happen in the weeks that have passed, but i will try my best. 

So, since we last talked, Morgan and I have recently gotten involved with a group at University of Cincinnati called CRU. It stands for something like Crusaders for Christ. On Wednesday,  Morgan, Bailey, Sam, and I decided we would check it out. After we spent 20 minutes trying to find what place it was at we soon stumbled upon it. We got there during the worship part. CRU is an amazing group. It has good songs, funny leaders, and a speaker that really touches your heart and brings the stories in the bible alive. It was so good getting back into a group of christian's again. 

The rest of the week consisted of lots of school and lots of homework. Morgan and I really like to try and get most of our homework done during the weekend so the week following is easier to get through. It helps us out with our schedule.

The weekend that was coming up, Morgan Bailey and I were invited to a movie on Friday with the girls in CRU. We went to the house of some of the girls, and ten minutes after we got there tons of girls showed up. The house which they called the "Coffee House" was full that night. We watched a movie called "shes the man" and ate cookies and popcorn. We met lots of girls there and we are so excited to get to know them more. That night the three of us went back to the apartment. Bailey was spending the night, and we ended up staying up pretty late. That night we had an issue. Morgan and bailey both found bugs on the carpet that looked like bed bugs. we were freaking out. All of us seemed to be itchy and we were so freaked out. After spending an hour freaking out and looking up images of bed bugs on the internet, we decided that no, it was not really a bed bug. Wheewww, but that night i had dreams of bugs all over me =(

Saturday we made banana cake and spend the day goofing off and attempting to study.

On Sunday, Morgan Bailey and I all went to church and then after that we spend the rest of the day studying for our exam. Class was at 7:30 on Monday so i had to get to bed at a good time. That didn't happen at all, i was so worried that i wouldn't be prepared for the test. 

Monday came and the week followed after that, and nothing too exciting happened to us. The one exciting thing was planning our mission to Illinois. Bailey was planning to show up on the weekend and surprise her sisters and also surprise Molly with Ross as her homecoming date. She also planned to have Kenzie's boyfriend Josh show up to watch her performance at the Friday football game. After days of trying to keep this quiet and to make sure this was planned completely Friday finally came and we were off to Illinois. We drove for two hours to Indianapolis to pick up Ross. We went to Chipotle for lunch and then we did the last four hours of driving. I had lots of fun traveling with Ross Morgan and Bailey. We sung the Disney songs and other songs and had great funny conversation. We avoided an hour wait in a line of cars because bailey decided she would drive around the line and cut in front. We also located a beautiful rainbow and Morgan and I learned that there was an arrow on the FedEx truck. FINALLY we made it there!! we were so excited to put the other half of the plan into action. We met up with baileys mom and dad and we drove to the school. Josh met us there and we went in search of baileys sisters. We looked in the room, but they had already gone out to the practice field. It began to pour and we were standing in the rain as Bailey surprised her sisters!!!

After that fun, we headed back to her hours to change. We stayed there for a while until the football game, then we went to watch molly do her flags and Kenzie do here poms performance. We had fun there, but it was COLD!!

We then left and went back to baileys house where we got warm and i waited for Sam to show up =) he made my day when he told me he wanted to drive from Greenville IL to crystal lake IL =) it was the best thing ever because i have missed him so much. We watched Aladdin that night, but really we didn't because most of us girls fell asleep. The boys went over to the Kopps house before we put the movie in. 

Saturday morning we had an amazing breakfast thanks to DeeDee Freemire =) she made chocolate chip pancakes, waffles, and cinnamon rolls!! after breakfast we sat around until we finally decided on going to the apple orchard. After the orchard we came back to the house to have lunch. After lunch we hung out here at the house and watched an old Disney movie. Ross and Molly got all ready for the dance, got pictures, and then headed over to another house for more pictures. We sat around her for a little bit until the pizza came for dinner. YUM. We ate and then after that we sat outside at the bonfire. Now we are just sitting around the living room. I am getting tired, but this weekend has been great so far. I don't wanna go back to school yet!! We have church tomorrow in the morning and then we have to make our way back home.

=) i hope i didn't leave any important details out!!
