Thanksgiving Break

My brother and I are heading home on Monday to spend Thanksgiving break with our folks. My mom has to work on Thanksgiving Day so we are planning our big deal on the following Sunday. It will be nice to be home again and have some more of my mom's home cooking.

Scary Movies

This weekend we watched so many scary movies. We went and saw the new movie Saw in 3D. It was sooooo good!!! Then after we went home and watched more scary movies clear into the early morning. We had a great time and a fun Halloween.

Easter

This Sunday is Easter and our parents are planning to come visit us and attend church with us on Easter morning. I'm sure hoping it will be a warm day so maybe after church we can spend some time outside. I'm glad my mom doesn't have to work so that we can all go to church together. This will make the day fun.

Christmas at Home

We had a real nice Christmas at home this year. We celebrated on Christmas Eve because my mom had to work on Christmas day. During this time we were having a major snow storm. My dad spent most of his time moving snow where he works so it was too bad that they were both busy. Anyway, when my mom got home from work on Christmas day it was still snowing but not blowing and pretty mild outside. So, my brother and I and my mom went outside and built a snowman. We haven't done that in years. It was fun and added something special to our Christmas at home this year.

New Cousin

Yesterday my cousin Jenna had a baby boy. He joins his big sister, Kaelyn who is two and of course her mom and dad. His name is Kaden and I'm sure he's a pretty cool little guy. We should get to see him on Christmas when all of our families get together. It will be fun to see him and we will also get to see my other new cousin who is due the first part of December. This baby will also be a boy and they have named him Israel.

Fashion Jewelry Sets

Easter is just around the corner and many people enjoy giving special gifts to their loved ones or special lady or man in their life on holidays. Giving beautiful fashion jewelry sets is a great idea. Holsted Jewelry has magnificent sets which include necklaces, bracelets and earrings which match together beautifully. Any woman would love a set like one of these. You can't beat the prices either. Some of these sets start as low as $21. They have gorgeous shades of spring in these pieces. They are stunning. They also have other jewelry to choose from and many will fit into your budget.

Gift Ideas for Women

When it comes to birthdays or Christmas it can be sometimes hard to think of a special gift for a good female friend or even my mom. perfume and flowers are always a great idea and seeing the smile on her face when she receives it makes it worth it all.
Other ideas could be a laptop or nintendo Wii. These would be great gifts for any occasion but one special day I am thinking of would be graduation day from high school or college. I would love to receive something like this when I graduate from college and getting a gift like this would show even more how proud my parents are of me and the accomplishments I have done.

Valentines Day

I have a beautiful sweet friend that I think the world of and I decided to get her something special for Valentines Day. I was going to buy her some flowers but thought it would be nice to get her something that would last a little longer then flowers do so I picked up a teddy bear and a box of candy. I'm looking forward to seeing her reaction when I give it to her. She's a great friend.

Classes Started

I can't believe classes have started already at school. The Christmas break went way too fast. My class started today and my brother started yesterday. Since we feel like we really didn't get to do anything special besides Christmas my brother, roommate and I are going to go to Des Moines and spend the night this weekend. We are all looking forward to getting away and doing something different and fun.

Bargains

Isn't it great when you can find some really great bargains? I was telling my parents that I wanted to buy me this mp3 player that was a little more expensive because it was a 2 GB plus it played video. I was going to be a little short on the cash that I received from Christmas and so I thought I was going to have to make up the difference from my paycheck. I walked into the store where it was located and here it laid in the clearance bin. It was about $20 less then what I had planned to pay for it. So, I ended up having enough Christmas money to buy it plus pay the taxes on it. That was a real blessing.

Cousins

Three of our cousins came to stay for a couple of days at our place. They went home today. We always have fun when they come over. We like making movies, playing video games and just running around. They were suppose to come over for New Years Eve but couldn't make it so it was nice they came for a couple of days after New Years.

Pizzazz

Awhile back I had gotten a Pizzazz from a former roommate that had moved out. He owed me some money and couldn't pay me so I got his Pizzazz instead. It is a great invention and I made not only pizzas on it but really any frozen item that is usually deep fat fried. Corn dogs, fish sticks, mozzarella sticks are just a few ideas of what you can cook on one. Anyway, it quit working this past summer and my roommates and I really have missed it. Well, we got a new one for Christmas and I have to say that has to be the best present we received. I couldn't believe my eyes when we opened it up. Thanks Mom and Dad!

Christmas at Home

My brother and I came home last night or maybe I should say early this morning after he got off work. We got home around 2 a.m. It is great being home. We've already had lots of laughs and of course Mom's good cooking. We get to be home till Sunday so I hope the time goes slow. We plan on having our family Christmas on Christmas day and I'm looking forward to that.
