Day 151

Today is Memorial Day & my parent's 24th anniversary. I went to bed early, about 10:30, last night so I woke up 10 something this morning nice & refreshed. After waking my brother up and getting ready, we were off to the movies to see Prince of Persia. It was a good movie, we all enjoyed it. We made a quick trip to walmart, where I got some body wash, in case you wanted to know, and came home and put a pizza in the oven. My parents had a little party at our house and somebody brought over a really pretty flower bouquet. So that's my subject for today's photo. I'm happy to have something bright as my picture because it seems like my last few have been kinda dark or blah. Anyways, I'm happy to be home with my family enjoying a nice summer day. :)

Day 150

Yesterday I ate breakfast with my boyfriend and headed back towards home. I drove into the driveway and parked just before my family drove in from church. We ate lunch and I took a nap for a couple of hours. I woke up, showered, and headed with my family to the Rose Theater in town to watch the church's youth pre-choir tour concert. It's sad because I was in the choir and went on tour from 7th grade to 12th grade. Now I have to sit and watch the choir from the stands. The pre-tour concert went very good. :) Hope y'all have a great tour.

Day 149

Saturday was another good day. I slept in a little and woke up my boyfriend after I got ready. We lounged around his house for a little bit before I convinced him to drive us to a Greenway near his house to walk around and let me take pictures. It's a neat little area that goes for miles where you can just walk or run or ride your bicycle. It was a pretty day and I got some neat pictures. After we walked for a little bit, we went back to his house, picked up his brother and three bikes and went riding for about an hour. That was a lot of fun. Then getting back, we ate a yummy supper and played cards for a while. Good day :).

Day 148

Friday May 28th was an exciting day for a lot of people. It was graduation day at my high school, so congratulations class of 2010! I did not attend the ceremony because I was headed to Atlanta. I was off to see my boyfriend whom I had not seen since we got out of school. I was nervous though because I had not driven by myself through Atlanta yet but I did just fine. :) That evening we met up with a group of friends from school to head to a Braves game. Five of us piled in a car and met another friend at the Varsity to eat before the game got started. While we were eating, a storm hit and hit hard. It poured and hailed and thundered and there was lots of lightning. We weren't feeling so great about this game going on. We sat in the restaurant for a little while longer and when the rain lightened up, we got in our cars and headed to the parking lots. We parked where we could see the stadium and from what we could tell no one was in the stands. We waited and the time for the game came and went and still nothing could be seen. We debated on whether or not to stay longer or head on back to the house. We communicated with the others who were in our group but not in the car and they didn't know what to do either. So we sat around for a little longer and after looking at the radar and seeing that the weather didn't look to be clearing up we left. The five of us in the car went back to my boyfriend's house and we piled into the basement and watched a movie. Unfortunately we discovered that after we left they had started the game. That's a disappointment but oh well...at least we got to see some friends.

Day 147

Today was another good day. I got to work a little bit early so I had to sit in my car waiting on somebody to get there so they could let me into the office. I was just sitting listening to my ipod and all of a sudden this cat hopped down on the roof of my car! It made me just but I also hurried to pick up my camera so I could take pictures of it. I've seen this cat before and I think it is owned by somebody who lives close to the office. I suppose it just likes to hang around though! I spent all of the morning making phone calls to churches to ask them to send the CBF office their newsletters/bulletins. For everyone who answered, I started out with this loong montage saying "Hello I am from the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of Georgia State Office. I was wondering if your church sends out weekly/monthly bulletins/newsletters to the church members." Breath. They would either respond with a "yes" or a "no" and if they said yes I would say "We would like to receive it." Then I had to figure out if they sent out their newsletters via mail or email. Then I had to give them our mailing address or our email. Then I said thank you very much and goodbye. So I did this, oh I don't know, maybe a hundred times. But anyways, the newsletters are very beneficial so this needs to be done. This project made time fly by and I stopped to eat lunch. After I didn't do much because I only had an hour or so left before time to leave. So I made sample collages to show to the coordinator an idea that Aimee and I had for calendars to send out to our churches. I came home and my brother and dad were walking around the newly cleaned pool Caleb got in and I was hot so I went and put my bathing suit, too, and got into the pool It's chilly but a lot warmer than normal because we cut down a tree that had been blocking the sun from the pool for years. I hope I got some sun because I am SO white haha. It was fun and now I'm relaxing with my family in our kitchen sitting room. Great Day. Tomorrow I am very excited because in the morning I will be driving for my first time to and through Atlanta. My boyfriend lives north of Atlanta and I am going to spend some time with him and then that night we're going to a Braves game with a group of about 10 friends from Mercer. I'm quite excited, it'll be a great weekend. :)

Day 146

Yesterday was a pretty good day. Work went just fine and I came home to find my brother immediately wanting me to drive him to church. So I did and after I decided to drive by the high school for old time sakes. I didn't want to look suspicious or anything so I went and parked at the track & walked around taking a few pictures. I really like how this one of the track came out because it draws your eye towards the back of the picture. I'm really excited because last night, I ordered tickets for me & my family to go see the Twilight Saga: Eclipse midnight premier on June 29th! :)

Day 145

Today was a better day than yesterday. Another five hours in the office, spent reading bulletins and eating lunch. I got my first paycheck, which was nice to get. It will be a large increase on my bank account. I went to the mall again (my attempt yesterday failed) and was successful...I got a tank top, a ring, & two necklaces at American Eagle. I got home watched some tv and sacked out in a nap after my brother fell asleep on the couch. I woke up to supper being cooked. After we ate, I walked around my front yard and porch to take pictures. :) Good day, I must say.
