okay, okay...

so i get this email from my cousin kris, kicking my butt about being MIA and to update the blog. sorry guys...school stuff just sorta "blew up" and took control of my life the last 2 weeks. glad to have this 3 day weekend to breathe, reset the balance of my life and indulge myself in a shopping trip to the galleria (oh boy!). remember that class i took back in june? well, my district compensated me for my attendance and i finally got paid for it earlier this week. rewarded myself with some citizens of humanity jeans! :) had my eye on those for a while now...imagine my joy as the salesgirl handed me my nordstrom bag! i love that i got to enjoy the day shopping with jonathan and taylor. taylor made the salesguy crack up in crate and barrel. apparently, jonathan fell behind checking out this coffee table and we were already moving on down the stairs. taylor called out for him, loudly, in the multi leveled store. when she spotted him she told him that "he's not supposed to be hiding, it's time to go". the sales guy looked up and chuckled. so funny! then in sephora, as she was checking out the little girl make up, she had jonathan put lip gloss on her. she showed me her colored lips with such pride. she's such a girlie-girl, i swear. :)

ok, that's all for now. have to get up early...hosting breakfast with the neighbors in the AM. banana pancakes!!! yum! hope your holiday weekend's going great too!!!
