I love family time!

Well, I got back from Myrtle Beach about an hour and a half ago. I got settled in, took a shower, and got online to see what I've missed! I haven't even unpacked yet! For some reason, unpacking sucks much more than packing! Ugh! Anyways.. Let me tell you about my wonderful trip!

At 9AM on Saturday morning, Ashley ( Tony's sister if you didn't know) got dropped off by her fiance, Kirk at Tony's apartnment. Perfect timing, because Tony and I were just walking down to put our stuff in his car. Then we greet them and Tony starts the car to get it warmed up and Ashley and I get in, waiting for Tony to get the rest of his stuff. So then we leave the apartment, and stop to get some gas. After that, we decided that we are pretty hungry, so we stop at Mrs. Winners and we each got a chicken biscuit! Mmm! So then we are on our way! About halfway there we stop at Augusta at this place called Stuckey's and we grab some snacks and then head on again! We finally arrive at April and Ryan's house at 3:30 PM and there are tons of family there. Ryan's side of the family, and April's. Madison is wearing the CUTEST dress that is red with a ladybug on it and her name! She is also wearing black tights and the cutest black shoes. I see her walking and I can't believe she can walk now! So, we open presents and then sing happy birthday and Maddy starts licking the icing off her cake. And she's lovin' it!

So, meanwhile we are all standing around and chit-chatting. We decide to head out with everyone and grab some dinner at this really good seafood restaurant (can't remember the name) and Tony and I get a Volcano Roll! Yumm! It had crab, asparagus, and cream cheese in it! So good! Then we head back to the condo where Ashley, Tony, me, and Tony's parents are staying. It's a 3 bedroom 2 bath condo. Really nice! Then we all sit down and start talking about stuff. :) It was good to catch up with them! Then everyone heads to bed. I finally get to sleep around 12:30 AM.

This morning was Madison's christening. So, we were told to be at the church bright and early at 8AM. Tony and I heard we had to leave at 7:30AM, so we decided to get up at 6:45 AM and get ready to go. We head out at 7:30 and get to the church. Come to find out, the service is at 8:30 instead of 8. So, everyone was kinda like what?! Because we could of slept longer! And trust me, sleep is precious!

So then Maddy gets christened and after the minister is done saying the prayer and all the things he needs to say for her to be christened, she starts clapping. Immediately the whole church starts laughing then clapping with her. It was the funniest thing!! And SO cute, of course! Then after the service, it was 9:30AM, and by this time Tony and I are STARVING, so Tony, me, Ashley, and their parents head over to Bob Evans to get some breakfast! I had the biscuits and gravy! Mmm! Then we head over to April and Ryans and hang out with them for a little bit.

We head out around 1:30. We stop at the gas station to get some snacks and we were on our way! We also stopped at Captain D's. Yum! I got the fried fish and fries! Haha. We drop Ashley off at her apartment then head back to Tony's and I grab my stuff and come back home. Now, here I am! Haha!

What a great trip I had though! I LOVE Tony's family. Like LOVE LOVE! Haha. And I love spending time with them! I love being able to get away with Tony also. Seeing how he is with his family, makes me fall in love with him all over again!

I feel like during this trip I've gotten closer to his family. Especially his sister, Ashley. We get along great! Ahh, what a great family to be apart of! Now, all I need is a ring! ;-)

No, but really. If Tony and I do get married, what an honor it will be to be apart of his family!

Well, off I go to sleep! The past two nights I've gotten 6 hrs of sleep. I'm usually running on 8 or 9! Haha! So, now I'm going to go to sleep and may never wake up! No, I kid. Haha!

Goodnight!!

Madison and Tony's sister, Ashley!

Maddy lookin' cute!!

Busy weekend ahead!

It's Friday! Yay! I have already started on my laundry, so once that is done then I can get to packing for Myrtle Beach this weekend! Too bad it's only gonna be in the 50's up there. I wish it would be in the 80's so I can lay out on the beach! Oh well, it's not like we would have time anyways. We are probably going to be getting there around 3PM and then probably go to the condo and drop our things off and get settled in, then go to Tony's sister and brother-in-law's house to celebrate Madison's 1st birthday. Then we will be spending time with them that night, then the next morning we are going to Maddy's christening and leaving after that to come back to ATL. So, it will be a short trip indeed, but it will be fun. :)

Tony's parents already left this morning, so they will be there before us. We would of left today also, but Tony had to work. BOO! ;P

Well, off to shower and get things ready for the trip!

I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful weekend! I will blog once I get back from Myrtle Beach!

Thursdays are my Friday!

Since I don't have class Thursday, it's basically when my weekend begins. I only have classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, so I guess you could say my weekend starts on Wednesdays at 3:45, but they really start on Thursday for me.

I love Thursdays because I don't have class, and I get to see Tony. Although, I see him everyday because he comes over for lunch, I get to see him tonight for longer than 30 minutes! Since when he is over on his lunch break, it's only for about 30 minutes since he has to go back to work. :(

This weekend is going to be a busy one! Tomorrow I'm gonig to do a 'lil shopping for a new shirt or some nice black pants. I also have to do some laundry since I now have no clean clothes, since I'm a procrastinator. Then I have to pack for my and Tony's weekend trip to Myrtle Beach. I'm really pumped to get away for a couple days! I also more pumped that I get to see Tony's amazing family that I LOVE! Plus, it's his niece's birthday (which is the reason we are going up there this weekend) and I haven't see her in 6 months! So, I can't wait to see how grown up she's gotten!

So, tomorrow is going to be a busy, busy day. I think we are leaving town around 9AM Saturday morning. Which isn't TOO bad. But, I will having to be getting up around 8ish. Bummer! Haha. Oh well! I can do it! :)

Hope everyone has a GREAT Thursday!

Finally Friday!

It's finally Friday, people! This week actually went by pretty fast compared to last week, which was draggin' along. Today I did the usual for the first part of the day, which was workout and spend lunch break with Tony. Then, I left at 6 PM to go to Tony's apartment. We decided to stay in and figure out which dealerships we are going to visit tomorrow. He is trading in his Explorer for a more fuel efficient car. Trying to save some money! So, he is thinking of getting a new Honda Civic. We found one online for a great price with low mileage! So we are going to take a look at it tomorrow! Hopefully someone has not already snatched it up! So, that is basically all we did tonight.. and watch some of the Olympics.

I can't believe there is one more week of February! Where has the time gone? Just yesterday I was sitting at Indigo (Tony's sister's restaurant) eating great food with Tony for New Years Eve! Crazy how time flies when you're having fun! ;-P

Next Saturday Tony, his sister Ashley, and me are headed up to Myrtle Beach just for 1 night to celebrate Tony's niece, Madison's, 1st birthday! It's a big deal and I can't wait to celebrate! We are going to head out around 9AM Saturday morning to hopefully get there around 3-3:30 PM in time for the party! We're gonna stay at a condo that Tony's wonderful parent's are getting, with his parents and Ashley. It will be a short trip, but fun nonetheless. We are gonna come back to ATL Sunday morning after Madions's christening! We aren't going up there to lay on the beach, since it will be cold obviously. But, we will probably go up there again once summer hits.

So, I'm very excited that I have finally found out what I wanna do with my life. Being an Elementary School Teacher will be so rewarding! I cannot wait! :-) Took me long enough to figure it out! So, since Tony's other sister (he has three sisters btw), April, is an Elementary Teacher, then there will be two teachers in the family! That is, if we get married! ;-)  Hopefully I will graduate in May 2012 or December 2012! That is what I'm planning on! We will see! There is no time limit that I must graduate, but I'd like to graduate on those times so that way I can have a job faster and start making that dough!

Well, off to bed I go! It's been a LONG day! NIGHT!
