Well hello friends!!!
I'm going to start by saying... I'm currently sitting in the airport waiting for my flight home!!!!! I'm so excited I can't stand it. I have my Texas T shirt on and got to the airport 4 and half hours before the flight just to be safe. And lets be honest... what else was I going to do?? Of course... flight delay...BOOOOOOOOOO
Anyway... things have been a little crazy around here lately. I was a study crazed girl for the last week preparing for my face to face (via skype) final for my crazy class.... no pressure right. I studied for hours and hours until I couldn't see straight and then when the final came she said... tell me what you learned in class. After a couple of answers she said... sounds like you learned a lot, have a great summer. SERIOUSLY?????? Oh well... glad it's over.
After that final I was in a wierd mood. I got a call from the desk saying that we had a package. Timmy brought it up and we discovered it was a FABULOUS care package of home made (in Texas) banana bread from the lovely Ms. Angie Pogue (Jess's sister) :) It was the most wonderful surprise!! It was so yummy and so unexpected! Love her!
Then on Friday we had two very special visitors... Kristen and Bryan!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had some much needed fun with friends in the city. We went to see Chicago on Broadway and I thought Kristen was going to pass out from excitement. We went to the MET and got to go to the Alexander McQueen exhibit which was crazy awesome. A lot of weird mixed with a lot of beauty. I don't think the boys were too impressed but oh well... we enjoyed it! We saw a lot of the city and ate a lot of good food including our first Korean BBQ experience which was wonderful. We were very VERY sad to see them go but are looking forward to their upcoming wedding in October!
While running errands yesterday, I thought... might as well run into a store to look at shoes... no harm in that right... WRONG! As I'm trying on a pair of heels (trying to convince myself that yes, I can in fact walk in these) I hear a man yelling, loudly. He was screaming some racial obscenities over and over. I couldn't see him from where I was, and tried to stay hidden. I thought, yup, this is how I will die. This crazy man will pull out a gun and I'll get shot and killed with one tennis shoe on and one heel. So sad. Luckily most people in NY are used to crazies so he was escorted out and no one stopped shopping. I live in a very weird place.
When I got home, I checked the mail and ... I had another surprise. From the lovely Jessica :) Adorable pictures of my BFF Mason (her sweet angel baby). They are the cutest baby pictures ever! I guess cute kids take cute pictures. She also sent me a Chick fil a gift card for my trip home. LOVE LOVE LOVE me some Jessica Whitted Deemer!!!
Since we moved, I have realized again and again how lucky Timmy and I are. We have the most wonderful network of friends and family who lift us up when we are falling down. They know when we need a boost and know exactly how to cheer us up. From cards and packages to phone calls and skypes... we couldn't ask for better people in our lives! I really love y'all!!!!
Well... boarding for my flight will start soon so I need to go. I hope to see you all when I'm in Texas!!!!! I'm hitting up some SONIC right away :) I love you guys and I hope you are having a great day... I know I am :)
XOXOXO
Ally
