Coups run

This is the last run i have videoed of me and Coupers from the fall. This is actually prob the worst run we have had lately, but still isn't bad at all. He was .6 off of the fastest time and never even saw the first barrel and went into third wide. Hey! we won $$, are having better runs--thats all we can ask for right!?!? So here it is! I hope to get more videos of us and will post them. We are headed to Brenham Sunday

For you Erin!!

So I have uploaded a series of pictures of my life over the past couple of months just for fun since I have not blogged...and Erin said more pictures Sarah, Erin, and Me and Clow and Llow's wedding! Me, Kev, and Sarah at wedding! **** Me and Josh in Las Vegas for the NFR! In front of the Thomas and Mack for the 10th Round It was soo amazing! I never in my dreams thought I would get to go-and I did and we had awesome seats! It was truly a dream come true! And I want to go every year. Me and my amazing Puppies- Lucky and Rocky! It Snowed a ton and made for a beautiful but stressful Christmas! Jess, Josh, Me, and Kev at Sarah and Kevs shower Me and Sarah at the shower!!:)

Here is to 2010~

Wow...I cannot believe that it is already 2010!! I have a good feeling about this year!! :)
I got to bring in this year pretty low key but yet Amazing! I got to spend it with the love of my life at the most amazing place, LJD ranch-his home!! To most this may not seem like your oridary carribean Vacation or mountains in Colorado, but for us it is perfect. I absolutely love it out there. There is just something about being 30-45 mins from society, no cell phone service, on 3,000 acres of hills, animals, and rocks that comforts me and being with the one I love. We ate dinner at the lodge with the Mr. DelPapa the owner of the ranch and just hung out with him, his wife, and all of their friends. We actually had a lot of fun popping fireworks, playing games, and just chatting with everyone. It was REALLY good for Josh to be in that atmosphere and helping out. The next week of course sucked. Just when things start to get comfortable ( I was there for 4 days) I have to pack up and head back to my home-College Station. There was a tad bit of depression and tears the next week, BUT then I come to the realization of that is the situation we are in and I need to suck it up and deal with it and in the end it will all be worth it! HEY- Im a girl I have to have my little break downs here and there!

This past weekend was a lot of fun! We had Sarah and Kevins Couple Shower at the Corner bar!!! It started at 6 and we actually stayed out at NG till 2! Not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing lol! We had a ton of fun!! Cannot wait for their weddnig in May, even if I am going to bawl my eyes out!!

I went to my first barrel race of the year (the next day- but i made it like a champ )this past weekend and it was a great success--minus the fact that Coup set so hard on the second I almost went over his head--. But no, all in all he made a killer run. It was a HUGE run and the third barrel was literally in the middle of the pen with no fence to be seen. You see this tends to be a little bit of a problem when you and your horse's main issue is the third, and usually he gets so excited it is hard to set him and get him around it. So first run back after almost three months you can only imagine the butterflys I had going in my tummy thinking..."hmm this is really gonna test us Coup, Are you ready for this?? and more Importantly am I ready to sit up and ride your butt?" And he worked his little hiney off! I got soooo excited coming around the third...that i lost my brain and forgot to make him finish the turn I just gave him his head to run home! oops! One of these days I will ride like i use to on Showbox! I trust Coup now...I have no reason not too, but it is like my head and heart keeps holding me back! But We are def doing better and running on an average .5 off fastest time which is A LOT better! I know he has more, I just gotta ask it!

So that is about all that I have going on. Been pretty busy. This weekend I have to work...and josh will be in town so that kind of sucks. He leaves for Pennsylvania Feb.2 to go to a hunting show for basically the entire month of feb since it is a short month! lol! But really...he is gone for 18 days! That is a long hunting show!!! I am happy for him though he really loves what he does! And they are really doing a lot with TNT-Outfitters! If you ever wanna go hunt or just get a weekend away check out tnt-outfitters.com and hunt with my Boyfriend!!! :) Here is a pic of me at the ranch the first time I ever actually sat in a blind




Until next time~~~

I will do better...

So it seems I have fallen a little of the track of updating my blog...wait ok ALOT off the track! My sister reminded me today on my facebook so here I am.

This title I think fits this blog well...I will do better at updating-my blog...yes, but also I want to do better at my relationship with God, and do better at the little things in life that make things easier whether it be a friendship, or relationship with boyfriend, family and coworkers. I went to church this Sunday with Sarah, you see I havent quite found that church that I just really enjoyed here in College Station yet. I have tried several different ones from time to time, but just havent found my niche in churches...until this weekend! I was so happy and felt so good when I left. I could not wait to go back, I could not wait to tell my sister and parents I had finally found that one church I loved!! It was an amazing feeling!!!

Onto another note- we are doing Secret Santa at work!! I have not participated in this fun little Christmas tradition in forever it seems!! I LOVE IT! It has been soo much fun getting my person their gifts and be secretive about it all, and writing little poems for her to read!!!! :) And I must say that I have a WONDERFUL SANTA AS WELL!! The first day they got me all sour candies-may favorite...in a santa hat!!! It was awesome! And it had a cute poem to go with yet! Yesterday I got headbands, nail polish, and a pink sparkly nail file!!!...annnd another cute lil poem again!!! Then today I came to work and in my leasing box was my gift!! My clever little Santa got Rocky some treats, a toy, and a dog bone and me some gatorade with a cute poem!! It was so cute!! I cant wait for tomorrow to see what my little santa has in store for me...especially since I am only here a 1/2 day!!! and gone on Friday!!! And most of all I cant wait to find out who this little clever one is!!!

Well I need to get back to work...things are really crazy around here!!! :)

Bridesmaid Weekend

It is my weekend to be bridesmaid and for the first time ever! This is my first wedding to be in and I couldnt be happier that it is for Erin! She is such a great friend, will be a beautiful bride, and an amazing wife to Tanner! I went to Fort Worth this weekend to spend the day and night with her and take her out for her last single weekend since I could not make it to her bachelorette party due to turn. We had a blast just hanging out and catching up!! I cannot wait for this weekend it should be a load of fun!! I also had to drop off Rocky with the grandparents. He went to visit them with cousin Bailey since I am in the wedding and they will bring him back my birthday weekend. They love their vacations for the grandparents house. They have a blast.

Well a lot has happened in the job setting since the last time I wrote. I am currently the only one in the leasing office...all alone. Carmen left me to work at Callaway House. It is not the same without her...she really made my job enjoyable and was a great friendship to have. We still eat lunch and talk all the time its just so different being up here by myself. And I often sit and think when will all the cadiness(sp?) of girls go away? Will girls ever reach the age where they understand it isnt cool to talk behind everyones back? I have come to the conclusion probably not since I have been around it for over 1/2 of my life now. Oh well all we can do is ignore it...pick up and go on. That is one thing that I do enjoy on being up front by myself....is I can keep myself out of all the drama and cadiness. I do not want to get caught up in all of that it is not for me, nor will it ever be.



Anyways....Josh is in colorado and doing amazing! He is loving it so Much!! Here is a picture of him in the mountains that he sent to me yesterday!!

I cannot wait to go visit him and see all the beautiful mountains and the cool air. I fly out at 3:30 Oct. 2! I have a couple of good weekends to look forward to. This weekend is Erins wedding...Next weekend I get Rocky back and COUP BACK!!! WHOOP!and my parents and sister are coming down for my birthday!!! Then Tuesday we are going out to eat and Brandon Rhyder for my birthday!! And then Friday I fly out to see the love of my life!! I cannot wait for all of these events! It is these things that keep me upbeat and enjoying life!! :)

Here are some pictures from the last weekends with friends and Ziegfest...which equals Amazing!! We had a blast!!!









Well there is the latest few things going on. Now back to work ;)

I wanna +Love You Forever+

Well here we are and into August of 2009! Crazy how fast time flies. August is just a month full of events for me. I start turn at work this Friday which means we have move-out on the 7th and move-in on the 22 so between those dates we have to get all the rooms ready for the new residents. ALOT of hours and work I have been told! I am preparing myself as much as I can for this torture I hear coming my way with rest and a night or two of mixed drinks! I just got back from an amazing weekend in Fredericksburg with Josh and Rocky! We had such a great time. We rented a little house and cooked out the first night and shopped and went to Luckenbach and most of all just spent time together! It was such a blessing to get to be with him for a weekend with no worries, no plans, and just the two of us. He is about to leave to Colorado for three months and this was just the right thing for us to do before he left and I start turn! He is such an amazing person and I am so lucky to have him in my life! The picture is of us in Luckenback, Texas~! Sunday morning we took Rocky walking thru downtown Fredericksburg and then ate Subway outside with rocky!! IT was so fun! Then we parted our ways and said goodbye and this time it was much harder than usual. I cried when he started to walk away but I tried to hide it, he came back and I couldnt stop the tears then. This was the first time I have cried when we have left eachother in a loong time, but he was super sweet and made me realize even more how strong our relationship is and how much he loves me and we will be fine. I miss him already.

Onto another note. I am more and more a grown up now. I moved into my own apartment a little over a week ago. Its mine and Rockys new little place that we can call home, and you know what, we could not be happier. We go on our walks, play frisbee, and lounge around all night if we want to! It is super nice! We are starting to get back in the routine of working out again because wheeew I need it. My parents and Josh came down to help me move in and it was such a great weekend to get to spend with them! Life is good! And I get Coup back the end of this month! Life is good! I have a lot of things to look forward to the next few months! I will be better at posting more! :)

Catz- Up!

Wow. So It has been quite a while since I have updated this thing. I am going to try and get a little better with keeping up with this thing. So a lot has happened since my last post. Lets see I completed my internship, graduated from Texas A&M University Whoop!, and got a job.

At my internship I could not have asked for better co-workers, and supervisors. They were all amazing which made my internship all the more enjoyable. I learned a lot and was sad to see it come to an end, as well as my senior year.

Graduation came and went so fast. I had a blast with my family and friends. It was all so surreal as I sat in the chair waiting to walk across the stage at Texas A&m. It was an amazing commencement!! Afterwards, we all went out to the Hook for my graduation party, and I could not have asked for a better night at the Hook. It had rained during my graduation so everyone was scared to go out, so therefore it was literally my family and friends and one other table and an acoustic show!!!! We all enjoyed it soo much!!!!

Now I have started my new job for American Campus Communities at the Callaway Villas. I really enjoy it! We are super busy right now and I am exhausted! But loving every minute of it!!
