Car.....kaput!

So last week...Friday....my car started making this noise....like an old phone ringing....dad said it was part of my A.C. - and to just leave my A.C. on- so I did. Then today I went to perkins to get a salad for lunch and run to the bank- and it was making the noise...with my A.C. on- grr...so I called him and he said not to drive it and that we whould find a car for me to drive this weekend (as I am going to Winona to meet brett so we can drive to Iowa...how fun...) So I went back to work and dad called me and said to bring my car to Joe's and they would look at it and fix it- but not till Monday- so I still don't have a vehicle..So I call mom tell her I need to use her car (seems as her and Kevin have three vehicles for the two of them) SO now i am driving my moms car- which is okay- just drives so much more different than my car! I should'nt be so upset- this is the first time anything has gone really wrong with my car- the only really bad thing I guess though is that..........its going to cost $900 to fix....but since Kevin is fixing it at Joes- we will get most of it at cost- so thats good!

TOnight mom and I went shopping at HL at JoAnn's.....spent $50....got myself...stickers, rotary cutter and board, spring stack, punchies, and...ribbon, buttons....I think thats it. Got to eat at Noodles & Co. SOOO nummy!! Mom picked out everything for her vacation album im going to make her- should be super cute- not at all matching but thats okay- I don't think I like albums that every page looks the same colors- too boring for me I guess...maybe a wedding album...but thats not going to be happening anytime soon!!

Iowa this weekend...Should be fun- we usually have fun when we go on our little road trips so that Brett can test someplace! Im excited. Will be fun- lots of pictures I will take thats for sure!! Thats good though- I only have pics from... easter to scrap! everything else is done...oh and bretts pics from his 21st b-day- but there are not many of them.

Well...thats all...

T.V. SUCKS!

So, tonight the T.V. selection sucked. All these like catch up shows- boring! I've seen all the previous ones! haha...

This weekend was pretty fun! Friday night was the Fire Department dinner, won a cute picture frame- 5x7 so I gotta get a pic printed out in 5x7 to put in it! Saturday we went grocery shopping and made lunch, grilled cheese and tomato soup- nummy! Saturday afternoon we went to LaCrosse with bretts parents to run some errands and they took us out for bretts birthday at Red Lobster, my favorite!! Then we just pretty much lounged around the house. Today was pretty fun, we went out for lunch, got totally ripped off.....way too much $$ for the amount/quality of food we got. Then we went out on the river with Adam to check to make sure his boat works...haha...funny- I just laugh in my head when I think about that kid cuz hes just so...i dunno... sorta blonde like a ditzy girl? ya know? lol...but hes a cool kid and I wish he had a g/f so we could all hang out more- but that's not gonna happen for a long time I don't think....but who knows...people suprise ya I guess. Then we came home and made pizza for eveyrone. I haven't had home made pizza in so long. It was super good!! Then we went to Target so brett could get a new lunch box- and there is this awesome cup at target!! Wish I had it *wink wink*

Then I was getting my stuff read to leave and put in my trunk and brett put my rollerblades on...funny- he don't think he can roller blade...maybe with practice? lol....I don't think so! hehe

Next weekend is Des Moines. Should be a fun little road trip. Taking my car...which means I gotta clean my car (inside and out) before we leave...
Work full time this week...yuck...not looking forward to it...but then again I am because im so sick of sitting around with nothing to do! School is almost done...3 more weeks!! Gotta get working on math this week too (at work..haha)

In the middle!

Yes im right in the middle of two fun weekends! Last weekend the only thing large planned was state school in Rochester, Saturday night we stayed in a hotel and ate at Outback (it was so much fun, didn't get any pictures from the night though) but the thing that supised me the most was Friday. Brett and I went up to Minneaoplis to the convention center to the Outdoors show. We had so much fun just walking around looking at the boats, resorts, and all the other little things they had around there. On our way there we stopped at Red Robin on Cedar Ave. had a delcious lunch. After the sports show we went to MOA. When we walked in Brett said "lets go to










Build-A-Bear and you can make a bear!" So I did!! We even went to the Arcade and played for a little bit. I really wanted to go into one of those photo booth things and get a strip of photos, but they are $5 and we only had $2 cash after the Arcade. Next time!!

This weekends fun........KENNY CHESNEY CONCERT!!!!!! I am so excited. We are going to eat someplace before the cocnert...yeah that whole thing is up to me and I have to call a few places and see if they take reservations...that was my job for the past two days and I still havent gotten it done yet...oops! I will for sure post pics next week!!
Brett is coming to town tomorrow afternoon. Oh- and I rented Brokeback Mountain...brett said
