Valentines,rock stars, cleats, tissues, DANCE PARTY

Well hopefully everyone had a great valentines day a few weeks ago! Me and pete got some great professional massages from a place our friend works at.. it was only 39 bucks for an hour for your first visit! it was great!! i deffinately needed it, and feel like i could still use one once a week or so! they are so addicting! Pete also gave me a really comfy fleece pullover and i got him a monster truck video game for our Wii. We love that thing! We are in the process of beating it on hard, and pete is also using this cheat where if you beat every song with 5 stars on all the levels then you can get like a free guitar and other stuff.... it's really challenging! But all in all.. we are definitely rock stars! We also did get to go see some rock stars: Cartel- a local band from Conyers but it was really fun. We went on our little outing with markus and cade- but it made me really miss johnny boy (who's on his mission). I have also started up the softball league which was a lot of fun! we won our first game by like 10 runs... i scored 2 of those!! whoo hooo... it's like riding a bike ya know! But i still have a lot of room for improvement! But the next day after the softball game, i wasn't just really sore from using all these muscles that haven't been used in a long time, I have also come down with some sort of cold! boooo.. i hate being sick.. i blame it on these stinkin kids that i'm around all week! haha but it's all good..we still have a blast! we're acctually having a
DANCE PARTAY!!! i'm so excited.. one of the ladies we work with who is older and not so much into loud noise and music is out of town, and so me and the other girl i work with who is like 24... we're having a dance party! i'm so excited!!!! I actually have to go get ready for work right now! i'll update soon hopefully with pictures from the dance party!!! have a great week!

Yeah.... My Bad!

So I know i got this blog and then never touched it... I promise I will do better! But the new year has started and has been moving FAST! After school and work started back up (at Kennesaw and then the Elementary School for the After School Program) Life just gets a move on real quick! A few fun and exciting things have happened though:

• We went to the Hawks vs Nuggets to see Pete's fav. player Allen Iverson play. It was a l ot of fun due to the fact we were in good seats, and the Hawks won ( then soon got creamed by them a week or so later).
  
• Played Whirlly ball with a big group of friends for Dallin and Michelle's bday. Whirlly Ball included bumper cars, lacrosse like hand scoops, and two goals with a circle in the middle to score, and 13 min games. It was a blast! How could it not be with a bunch of competitive people?! But we have had a lot of fun especially with Dallin and Michelle lately playing all sorts of games- especially a card game called hand and foot!
  
• Pete is still involved in many basketeball leagues. Some of the teams are better than others, but they all have fun! And that's Pete's only way he likes to get exercise.
  
• I am currently enjoying my tennis class for school and improving my game. Trying to get more consistent. I am also taking a volleyball class which is helping me refresh on some of my old skills I have not had to do for real since West GA days a year and a half ago. The volleyball league at Hammond Park will be starting up again soon which is always a blast- but it might interfere with the softball co-ed league I told Michelle I would do on I think mondays. But we'll see!
  
• We especially are missing my brother John as he is gone to the MTC and in Peru now! I love hearing his emails and letters cause he is so grown up in the church! it makes me so happy! He loves the gospel and the elders he is working with. and I will take credit for helping him know his espanol since we did have a class together in high school (and we would yell at each other in spanish for fun round the house!) He will soon be leaving the MTC and going into the field in Bolivia.
  
• This last weekend we got to go to a Cartel concert which pete was very excited about. We went with my cousins Cade and markus and had lots of laughs! Especially since the band before Cartel was totally wasted and now i would consider them one of the most entertaining bands i have ever seen! ( and trust me i have seen MANY bands!)
• We also went to a fun Super Bowl party- even though the Patriots lost, I am still really excited for the Giants (and Greg)
  
• In the church it was sort of sad to hear about how Pres. Hinckley died but at the same time I could not be happier for him to be reunited with his wife! He had such a great life and presidency in this church and is really the only prophet I actually remember. Also dealing with church I have a new calling as the CTR 6 teacher- which i am much more comfortable with rather than doing singing time. But i love it and we have fun in our class- hopefully i can teach them something they will remember!
• Another sad event is Brooke has moved out to Utah. But it is also very exciting because she gets to be with Justin- who is her match in life! and i could never be happier! but she is living out there and hopefully getting this job with the Family History Center out there. Stacy drove out with her this week to keep her company as well as to spend time with her friends out in UT. But i am really going to miss Brooke!

Well there is the last two months in a nutshell... and they've been fun! But hopefully it won't take me this long to update the blog!!
