Just Catching Up...

So, I'm FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY updating my blog after almost a month. I apologize to all two of my readers that it took so long, but I just got caught up in random things. And then by the time I had time to write this, I didn't want to because of how long I had put it off. But, I'm back. I hope I stay back. But, at least for the time being, I plan to start blogging again. I'm making a comeback. Kind of like Lindsay Lohan, but with less drugs.

First off, the weekend after I stopped blogging, Rachael, Lizz and I went to Louisiana. It was a seven to eight hour drive, and Rachael and I both sat in the back, earning Lizz the title of "mom" for the entire trip. We actually stayed on a Christian campground, and since Lizz knew the people who run it, the three of us got to stay for free. In a house. The three of us had a house to ourselves. So that was pretty cool. Also it had a really pretty view. But it did rain just about the whole time we were there. Which was kind of a bummer, but it was also not that big of a deal because it was fun to just get out and do something different. So here are some pictures from our lovely three day long adventure.

Rachael and I, playing the part of the children.

Mom, driving responsibly like an adult or something.

Did I mention that Rachael and I decided that the house we stayed in was haunted? These are the creepy haunted stairs that lead up into the room of ghosts and shadows.

Just some ghosts enjoying a meal.

Lizz only packs what is absolutely necessary. Like her Rubik's Cube, and the algorithms she uses to solve it. But, she did learn how to do it without her notes during this trip. So that's pretty cool.

This little tricycle was just chillin' in the master bedroom. It reminded me of The Shining. "Come plaaaaay with us, Danny!" 

Just an over exposed picture of the awesome view from the house we stayed in. 

We didn't get to go out onto the dock until it was almost dark. Just because of the rain. And the mosquitoes. LOTS of mosquitoes. But anyway, this is the sun setting over the lake.

Just a cute little crawfish place. Pretty entertaining.

Then, of course, Sam Houston from the car on the way home.

The entire trip was tons of fun. It was nice to get to go somewhere new and meet new people. 

Since then, not much has happened in my boring, everyday life. Except that I started working at my mom's office when Holly had to stop for band. It's pretty cool though. I'm making money and working with some people that I've known since I was a kid. And everyone there is fun to be around. It's a  lot of fun. 

Also, things that happened while I wasn't blogging... Dyed my hair (it doesn't look much different). Got my eyebrows done (finally). Lost most of my tan. Skyped with Mike (a lot). Hung out with Rachael (also a lot). Started reading a book that I really like again. Also started reading The Help. Worked. Cut out pictures from magazines. Went shopping and bought a bunch of tank tops. Watched parts of the Olympics. Made a cool thing for Shane's birthday. Made my sister's section shirt design in Photoshop. And lastly, found a song by a girl that I actually like (I generally don't like female singers). 

I hope my life is entertaining enough for you to want to read about. But if it's not, oh well. I don't care. 

Also, I really do plan on keeping up with this from now on. Hopefully. Maybe.

"Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened." 

P.S.: I TURN EIGHTEEN ON FRIDAY! And I'm really excited. In case that wasn't obvious. :)
