Engagement Party

We had an awesome Engagment Party last weekend. I thought I would share some photos.

Would you rather...for funsies.

Would you rather eat 50 hotdogs in 1 week or die your hair blue for one week?

Would you rather meet Oprah Wynfrey or Matthew McConaughey at a party?

Would you rather have 16 children or not be able to concieve at all?

Would you rather be covered in peanut butter for a day or run around the outside of your house naked twice?

AND GO.

OMG, My new favorite thing...

I am not even kidding you when I say that the Quiznos Sammie is the best thing that has happened to me since Brent. JK! Really though, they are sooooo good! I got the chicken cantina and the Sonoma Turkey (w/out mayo or cheese). It changed my life for the better. I went back today for lunch and got the same thing. The best part is they are only 3 weight watcher points each. So, thats only 6 points for lunch! Well, and then of course I get the baked lays...whatever, you get it. I'm such a fan. I think I'll go back tomorrow too b/c I want to try them all.

Holiday World

Melissa, me, and Lee

YEA! HOLIDOG!

I haven't posted in FOREVER because life has been a whirlwind. I have recently gotten a new job in Tuscaloosa and moved here, therefore things have been hectic. Two weekends ago, however I got the pleasure of experiencing "Holiday World" in Santa Claus, Indiana. That was quite an experience. My friend Lee has been talking about this place since the day I met him. He is in a roller coaster club (yes, there is such a thing and i have a friend that is a member- pays dues and everything) So, Holiday World is this fantastic amusement park divided into holidays. There is a Christmas of course, Thanksgiving, 4th of July, and Halloween section. Each section has rides with names, decor, and music in that holiday theme. They have a Santa Claus that roams the park each day as well as the famous "Holidog" mascot. Very cute, and very fun. The important part of our trip was that we got to attend this special event b/c Lee was in the "roller coaster club". So, we got to stay late after the park had closed and ride the roller coasters over and over. There were no lines! The coasters also go back into the woods so its pitch black at night. While we were there a couple actually got married atop "The Voyage" and spent their honeymoon at this event. WOW! ha. Here are a few pics from the trip. I went with friends from theatre in Birmingham.

Memphis in May!

Emily beat me to the punch with her elaborate Memphis post from this past weekend. I wanted to share my own version (that will be shorter b/c Im not the writer Emily is). This weekend I went to Memphis to visit my friend and college roomie, Caroline. She moved there in December and was nice enough to invite us for a girls trip. , Taylor, Caroline and I went to Fairhope last year to visit Emily. We had so much fun eating, talking, reminiscing about college days, name dropping..hahaha. She took us to the BBQ fest on Friday night that reminded me of the Peanut Festival without the rides and it one long strip that went on and on and on...which I can proove by the blisters on my feet. Caroline also had a "fiesta" on Saturday night and invited our college friend Amy Beth over as well. The whole weekend was fun and relaxing and it was great to just get away. Here are some pics of the trip.

News!

After sending out my resume to 2,765 places I finally got a job in Tuscaloosa! I am very excited about it. About one month ago Brent and I went to dinner with an attorney friend of his in hopes that he had friends or co-workers/clients that were hiring. He said he would keeps his eyes opened for an opporutnity for me. Well, he called Brent Thursday night and asked if I was still looking and of course I was. His assistant quit and he wanted to officially interview me. So, I am now going to be a Legal Assitant to Bryan at his law firm. I am going to have to learn from scratch but Im very interested in law and excited. I guess Im moving in 2 weeks! YIKES! Wish me luck.

Can you imagine?

Brent is directing Damn Yankees right now at Bryant High School and has had a VERY hard time getting the cast to cooperate. I'm really not sure why and I think he is baffled. They have one rehearsal left and I'm pretty sure several people dont know some of their lines. When I was in HS, Mr. Sirmon would have literally killed us if we didnt have the show perfect by now. I know its not Brents fault b/c I know he has yelled, threatened, bribed and none whatever it took to make them care...and they just don't. The scariest part was that two night ago he really thought the lead girl was going to quit and asked me if I could learn the part in 3 days. Can you imagine trying to learn all the lines, songs and blocking in 3 days?? Not to mention i have a full time job and a couple hundred thank you notes to write. Anyway, I think she has hesitantly stayed around (thank you Lord) and I dont have to perform a miracle. Of all the shows I've seen, been in, and memorized the soundtracks to, Damn Yankees is not one of them. I am ready for it to be over for B's sake though. just 1 more rehearsal B!
