October so far....

So October has been fun so far! I can’t believe it’s almost halfway over already! WOO HOO!!! Less than a month until my hubby comes home! J SMILES ALL AROUND FOR ME!!!
It started off with the BBQ at Dustin and Ashley’s! Lots of family and friends were there. It was a lot of fun! We drank some beers, ate some food, and hung out! Always a good time!

That next Monday I went to the Lower Buckeye Jail for a field trip. I am taking a Criminology class at the community college and my teacher took us down there to meet some of the inmates. It was pretty interesting! An eye opener for sure!

Last weekend I headed to my parents house. I had a 3 day weekend because of Columbus Day so I decided to hang out with my folks! I got there Friday night and Saturday morning I woke up with a head cold! It was horrible! My parent’s neighborhood has this “Breakfast Cookout” thing once a year and it was that Saturday. I went for a bit but ended up going and sleeping for another 3 hours. It didn’t seem to help the cold. So we all just chilled around the house and my mom told me they were having a baby shower for one of her friends on Sunday. I was so upset. I was so not in the mood to entertain at all. So Saturday night my mom and I played some scrabble and had a few drinks. Sunday we woke up and ran some errands and people started coming over around 1. Well as soon as everyone got there, my mom looked at me and said “this isn’t a baby shower; it’s your surprise Bridal shower you never got!” I was SO SURPRISED! I had no idea!!! It was fun! My mom is amazing and I never expected to get that! All her friends were in on it and brought me gifts! I got some cool stuff for the house and a gift card from my grandma for Wal-Mart! I bought SOOOO much stuff to decorate my house with!! It was a great day and I kind of felt bad for complaining to my mom about people coming over, but she understood and took it! LOL I LOVE MY MOM!!! Sunday I slept in and then my mom, my little sister Emily, and I went for a bike ride! Monday, my mom and I went and saw Couples Retreat and had some lunch. I got home and packed my stuff and headed back to Phoenix. It was an AWESOME weekend!!!

This week has been pretty relaxed because I just wanted to get better and not be sick anymore. Tiffany and Tony Chacon’s baby shower is this weekend and then maybe the fair! Ashley and I are headed to Aunt Cathy’s house on Sunday so I can take a look at what is in Jesse’s trailer that I want to keep or get rid of.

Jesse comes home in 8 weeks!!!!! He is doing well. He is tired and ready for a break he says. I would agree! He has been non-stop since he got over there. December will be a nice break for him and I! Then we have 3 more months to go!!

I think that is it for now. My life in less than a page! LOL

LOVE YOU JESSE!!!

Until next time….
