Friday Catch-ups

1. Actually did some homework today

2. Worked on the good ole quilt project. It's gonna be CA-UTE, good thing because it's taking FOREVA!!

3. Did minimal laundry

4. Blogging

5. Caught up with Sal in person for the first time in a WHILE! YAY! She's here for the weekend and I'm so glad. I love her. She's pretty much the other half of my soul. We've determined we're soul mates. Don't tell her fiance, or my boyfriend. Good thing they never look at this :)

6. Just got updated on Ally's love life, I love watching younger siblings get the heat from the parents. It's the best. ha

7. Painted nails (with Sal) and told secrets. <---- SO needed!

**Also check out my SWEEET pumpkin carving skills!!

I hate spiders.

I don't know what it is about this time of the year, but all the spiders and creepy crawlies think that just because it's starting to get cold outside, they can come hang out in our house.

False.

They cannot.

I hate spiders. Always have. I usually can kill them without too much freaking out, but there's this really big one that's taken up a residence in the guest room, down the hall. Not happy about it.

At all. I think it's time to call in reinforcements, or something. I can't do the spider thing.

Sorry.

I enjoy good socks

Aren't these good socks?

Cute too, huh? Yeah, my boyfriend has good taste in socks.

He got these for me. What says love more than buying

good socks for your significant other?

Man, I love that silly guy. :)

Somehow I forgot to mention...

My best friend, Sally Workman...

(this is her, isn't she loverly?)

besides being PRETTY and AWESOME,

AMAZING, my FAVORITE... she's

GETTING MARRIED!!!

We're all pretty excited about it :)

Here are some classic Abbie+Sally photos:

Sexy, of course.

Kissy or Desperate. Not sure which.

Happy/Smiley, I love Sal's face in this one.

Classic (who knows what we're doing)

Let's be honest, we look HAWT all the time. ha!

Oh, by the way, this is the cute boy she's marrying. :)

His name is Ryan Powell. He's from California.

They're cute together.

I had to get in on the love in this last one :)

They're getting hitched Dec. 31st, 2010! Don't miss it!

I'm SO happy for her! She's going to be a great 'lil wifey!!

Congratulations Sally and Ryan!

The Case of the Missing Peanut Butter

Who steals peanut butter?

For the second time in a few weeks the new bottle of Skippy creamy peanut butter has gone missing just days after purchasing. Not only was it stolen, but the extra crunchy generic bottle was untouched.

BAAAHHH!! All I want is some CREAMY peanut butter! WHo's the thief?! Fess up soon please!

Two side notes worth mentioning:

1. I'm thinking about reading the Book of Mormon in 60 days or before the end of the year. :)

2. I'm a stupid pedestrian sometimes.

Wow.

For the first time today, I checked out Nie Nie's blog.

I am amazed. What an inspiration!

If you haven't, check it out.

Also check out this tender video, My New Life. She explains

what happened to her and how she's coped since her accident.

What an amazing woman! So amazing. I'm speechless.

Fall Breakin'...

I love it when there is no school.

It's the bomb.

I love that it's 70 degrees outside.

I love the in-between seasons weather.

It's lovely.

I seem to love lots of things today.

There is a lot of love going around.

You'd almost think it was spring

with all the twitterpation.

Only 75 more days til I get to share

in the twitterpation...

but who's counting?

Definitely not me =]

Also excited for long-sleeve season!

I've had a few pieces

I'm excited to bust out!

Stubborn...

I'm stubborn

and sometimes I wonder

if it's my strongest

personality trait.

I hope not.

I don't think

so.

Also I'm a night-

owl.

It'd be good

for me to get

over

that one.

Although,

I'm fairly certain

it's genetic.

:]

Camping...

If there were camps categorizing people according

to their happiness level...

I would be in the happiest camp.

Because I am the happiest camper!! :)

Yep, that's right.

Life is looking up.

I may or may not have received the most lovely

package in the mail today.

Also I'm going to have the best SLEEP

of my life tonight since I'm so tired...

Sweet dreams!
