Procrastination

Holy cow! I don't even know where to begin! It has definitely been too long since I've posted.. Sorry about that! Here are A TON of pictures of things I have been doing here at MSUM. 

Yes, indeed. We dressed up for Halloween and we went Trick-or-Treating! :) Never too old! 

I have to give my Uncle Rich a shout out for the above pictures. He is the one that taught me the good ole' grape in the upper lip trick (cherry tomatoes in our case)! This was probably one of the funniest meals ever. Especially when we convinced our coach to do it with us! Times like these make me love the team I am on and make me so thankful that I am creating wonderful memories! Oh, and yes, we do have bibs on. 

Jackie-Man! Watching our evil! 

Vivi bags her own groceries... Gotta love her! :) 

It was my birthday during my non-posting period and I received THE BEST Birthday box from my parents! Inside were things from coloring book to Rice Krispie treats to Fry Sauce! Yes, fry sauce. The people in Minnesota DO NOT HAVE FRY SAUCE! I was talking about it one day and everyone was looking at me like I was speaking a foreign language. They have never even heard of it! o.O So, it was in my box, and I am going to change people's lives when they eat it! YUM! 

Best rookie ever! :) My room was decorated for me when I came home from my swim meet. 

Birthday wished from back home! 

Birthday Breakfast! :) 

The above pictures are from my Birthday! :) The first one (the box of candy) shows you how much candy we have in our room. Makayla and I decided to put all of our treats together, and this is what we came up with. Hole Shit. Too much sugar! 

My sister took this pic. This is why I miss CV! 

I wear that ring with pride! :) Love my Marine! 

The above pictures are from the night of my B-Day. We went out to eat and then we went to Walmart. As we were walking through the isles we found: Snap bracelets, lip kazoo'z, and poppers. Vivi has never seen any of it. So we bought them and let her experience every american child's childhood. To say the least, she loved it! :) 

Birthday Bucket from my Boy! :) 

So, my family made another big adventure up North. Now they came with 2 grannies! :) I was so excited to see them! We had a great time hanging out, and just catching up. I have missed them watching me swim! It was so great to have my little fan section back! :) 

CV once again! 

Taylor is ready for winter. 

Last, but not least. This is how a college kid eats Cheesecake. Bag the solid piece on a plate! Just throw it all in a bowl and call it good! 

Thanks for reading! Hopefully it won't take me as long to post again. I can't guarantee anything though!

The weekend of a LIFETIME! :)

Well... This weekend was one of the BEST that I have had in a very long time! I traveled to Georgia to see my boyfriend. I was planning on surprising him but little did I know it was not going to happen that way... I arrived in the Atlanta airport and I saw his mom and little sister. I was so excited but yet SO nervous! As we were walking towards the baggage claim his mom was talking to me and asking me if I was excited/nervous/all of the above. I was telling her that I did not know what I was going to do when I saw him. All of a sudden... I feel a tap on my shoulder and there he was. With a single red rose. I was SHOCKED! It was absolutely amazing though! I was glad it was over with faster than I planned. 

So... All weekend we just hung out with his friends and family. It was so great to get to meet all of the important people in his life! 

Brianna (his little sis)

:)

Him and his grandfather! :) 

Dinner with the fam!

Pa-Paw! :) 

Ma-Maw! :)

Two days after I left he did too. He left for Marine Combat Training. He will be there for 28 days and then he heads to the Sunshine State for more schooling! Him and his friend John were able to travel to North Carolina together. They were together at basic training and now they get to be together through even more training! It is a good thing too! One of the main things they teach in the Marine Corps is: 2 is better than 1.

John and Austin! :)

Austin and I! 

Thanks for reading! I will post more once I get some more pictures of swimming and my other college adventures!

Wuah Wuah like a Dungeon Dragon!!!

It has been a while since I have blogged.... Hope these pictures show what I have been up to!!!! 

The above 3 happened when I left my phone at the dinner table.... 

Burning of the "M" for Homecoming! 

Homecoming Fireworks show! 

 For MSUM Homecoming we had a dance! After our Alumni meet a group of swimmers got all dolled up, went to dinner and then went to the dance! It was such a great night of friends and dancing! :) 

Ink #2!

(Just kidding! It was a spray on tat that I sported in honor of my bestie!)

Oh ya know... Just a quick snow storm in October. 

I had to pull out ALL the winter gear! 

Brazilian Pretzel! :) 

Happy Halloween!! :)

The above 3 pictures have THE BEST story to go along with them...

This week was my first official college swim meet. To say the least.. I was super excited! It was about an hour and a half before warm up started and we were going to have our team meeting. I was walking down the hall and my coach called me over. I was confused so I kind of gave her a little trouble. She told me to just come over. So I did. As soon as I walk around my corner, my parents were standing there!!!!!! I was in shock! I cried like a baby and it made my whole day! The pictures above are some of the ones that my mom was sending me... I was confused but I thought they were cute! Little did I know that they were taking them that day and sending them!!! It was an awesome surprise and I think I swam better because they were there! ;-) 

Thanks for reading!
