Summer-itis

I have summer-itis SOOO badly right now. I CAN'T WAIT for summer to be here! I need a break. And, this summer, I'll be getting one!! Several, actually.
In June, I'm supposed to go to Schlitterbahn with my life group for a weekend
I'm going to Ohio for 10 days!
In July, KIDS CAMP!
and then, in August, I'm going on a CRUISE! I am SO stinkin' excited....the BEST part about it is my entire family is going!
Mom
Bill
Kasey
Me
Grandpa
Aunt Maggie
Aunt Barb
Megan
Tori
Amanda
Uncle John (?--maybe?)

11 of us. Unfortunately, they told me now instead of after finals, so all I want to do is research shore excursions (I really want to do something underwater or a zip lining/para sailing one) and cheapest cruise prices!

Yay for fun times!!!

Blue Angels Air Show Pictures!

Blue Angels Air Show

Today Brittany, Curtis, Korbyn, and I went to the Blue Angels Airshow on base. It was so much fun...I'm gonna miss them so much when they move in 3 weeks. :( Okay, not gonna cry---gonna tell you about our fun day!

We started off the day with Brittany, Korbyn & I eating breakfast. Brittany cooked for eggs, bacon, biscuits, and chocolate gravy for me! Chocolate gravy is SOOOO yummy. She says it's an Arkansas thing (have you had it, Kasey?)...and trust me, its good...i need to remember to ask her for the recipe.
Later on, we went to the airshow and watched the Blue Angels do some fun flips and turns and all sorts of cool looking stuff that would make me throw up if I was in the plane, lol. Korbyn was so good & actually slept for probably 30 minutes or so while the BAs were flying everywhere & being so loud.

Here's the pics (and I'm trying to put them in a slide show...I am too impatient to wait for them to upload the other way):

My Productive Day

Yesterday, my aunt borrowed my car, so I decided that I would use all day to study and write my Voltaire paper for Philosophy. While the books lay open and the laptop turned on, I:

• did 4 loads of laundry
• washed & dried sheets & comforter
• sorted through some old clothes to take to Goodwill
• organized my closet
• cleaned my bathtub
• hung my newest crosses & picture I got for Christmas
• hung my dry erase calendar on the wall
• moved my bed
• cleaned out Pablo's fish bowl (for the first time since Christmas)
• semi-reorganized my scrapbooking drawers
• and began organizing/throwing away the other junk that has accumulated.
• after dropping my car @ my aunt's, I ran home the 3.4 miles!
  

So, while my Voltaire paper still sits, waiting to be written, at least I have a clean closet???

Cruise???

When my grandma passed away last month, my grandpa talked about how much he would like to go on a cruise as a family. At the time, I thought it would be fun, but didn't really think it would happen.

I got home from class tonight & my mom told me to check my summer schedule and give me a list of available dates that I could go on a cruise because Grandpa had called and DOES want to go on a cruise this summer! I'm super excited....how cool will that be???

hmm...I need to get a passport. I don't even know where to begin on that one...
