Halloween Party

To start off this is my ninja turtle costume 

First off, new goal for November blog each Monday. I started a blog because hopefully the next couple of months should be interesting enough that I will want a record. I started job searching last week that was a little scary but excited knowing I could go anywhere or do anything. I found out that Pennsylvania has the top NICU in the US and once again have my heart set to move to Pennsylvania. (side note)When I was applying to college I really wanted to go to Penn state.  I also had my last ever advisement today. The next 6 months will be filled with lots of firsts and lasts. This weekend we drove to college station to see Drew's friends for a change.  We had already gotten out costumes and decided on being ninja turtles. I was super excited! We also had an interesting talk about a future wedding and our plans for bridesmaids and groomsmen and the number which he has agreed we can't have a small wedding our family is just to big. But I am thinking popping the question should be just another the corner :p  


 Me with my very small mask, it really squished your eyes, I was having a fantastic hair day, I litterally just brushed it.

 The ninja turtles and mario and luigi ( Two of Drew's good friends )


 I was so obsessed with having a turtle shell!!!
 I stole Drew's hat at one point and it was so com-fee I didn't want to give it back.
 THE AFTERMATH
 YIKES
Me and one of the other girls cleaned all this up, and I sorta cleaned the stove, as a future nurse I could not allow that kind of unsanitation. Overall, Fantastic Night!!!

Update

So I totally forgot to blog about my mom and brother coming to visit. It went really well surprisingly. I think they had a nice time. Alex had a few moments but overall visit was a success and of course we took lots of pictures. 
Here is Alex in front of the restaurant sign, He is so tall! Drew and I planned on going there for our one year but it looked a tad too kiddy. It was more fun than I thought it was gonna be all the waiters and waitresses were dressed as characters. We had Rapunzel for ours.
 Here is the four of us at the table.
 Mario had a really cool voice when he talked and Alex really liked that ! So he came and sang "happy birthday to him. 
A balloon girl came by the table and alex asked her to make him a snake, she put salt in it so it even rattled. He really enjoyed scaring meme and mom.  
 I just love this picture of Drew and I, it is currently my background on my computer and phone lol. I really just like the light that was approve us.
 Alex picked out and planned what he wanted for his birthday and then we ordered it on amazon. He of course still acted surprised when he opened them up.
That is the guide book to the state fair that Drew is hiding behind. We left the house at a decent time around 10 and got to the fair shortly after. We were super hungry so we ate first.
Alex got a taco. 

 Drew and I sharing his turkey leg.
 
 I don't know what it is about the cone dogs at the fair but they are delicious !!! I ended up having 2 this day and 2 the time I went with my friends.
My mom tried the fried mac and cheese. 
Alex with the snakes 


 Alex saw this and immeditelly wanted to go, Drew didn't want to spend tickets and Mom was like "hell no" so being the wonderful big sister I am I took him. The guy was super nice and even only charged us 1/2 the tickets since it was Alex's birthday.

 Me with the snakes :(
Next we went to the museums because there was a special admission price, it was alot of fun and mom even got to see a dolphin IMAX. 
 Favorite thing at the museum was this bubble station, Drew was way to good at it !
 Sic'em Bears !
 Mom, Alex and Drew after we got salt water taffy! That is some good stuff.
 Mom with her fried ice cream.

This is the famous Texas Star Ferris wheel !

Drew and I went together but they require at least 4 people so we had 2 teenage girls for company.  

 Mom got her roasted corn.
My 2nd corn dog!
The classic couple in front of Ferris wheel picture 

 Alex wanted a cookie cake so after the time machine on Friday we went to Walmart to pic a cake. There was a slim selection either go rangers or Halloween, so Alex picked a go rangers cake and just kept saying he had to have that one said go rangers, so my mom asked him who are the rangers and alex was like the police men, we thought it was so funny and alex just didn't get it. Also we didn't have fire to light the candles so Alex just had to pretend.



 The three of us :)

My first post

This is my first official post, I had another blog before but it was all centered around my ex. I decided I like to go back and read how I felt or what I did close to that time range. I love to scrapbook and blogging would help for when I need to journal. Yesterday was clinical, I guess first I should introduce myself a little bit. I'm a S1 in nursing school which means I graduate in may hopefully. This semester was been a train wreak ! I have one little brother who is turning 15 tomorrow!!! I am in a serious committed relationship of almost 1 year and 5 months and you will hear tons about him. So I'll just start ranting cause that is what I intend to do alot of . My mom and brother are coming tomorrow from Houston to visit me in honor of my brother's birthday so I will have many pictures to post after this weekend. Tomorrow we are going to the Time Machine Restruant which should be fun. Then on saturday were going to the state fair and the museums are really cheap so we will be visiting some of them. I havent been sleeping well and so that is sorta how I have ended up blogging at 2:33 in the morning when i only got a few hours of sleep due to me pulling an alnighter before an exam. WARNING- I have trouble with spelling and grammer because I have severe dyslexia so its not that im dumb.
