December...

what a busy month you are! I really don't have much to blog about but I just feel like writing something... I'm currently listening to my Christmas music which includes; Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Josh Groban, David Archuleta, NSYNC, Hilary Weeks, (where is my Forgotten Carols? I swear I buy a new one EVERY year, no joke!), a few random Christmas mixes, and oh yes... Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton! I remember listening to a Kenny and Dolly Christmas on cassette tape as a child, even clogged to one of their songs at one of the famous Fullmer Christmas parties! My sister found it on cd at Walmart for $5, now I call that a great find! I don't know about you, but I get really excited when I come across something from my childhood! And not something that is "coming back", but something you truly find from the past! Guess I really am a child at heart! Anyways... I've been feeling overwhelmed lately, not sure why but I don't like it! I've been trying to get into the Christmas spirit but I think work is dragging me down. I'm still working as a phlebotomist... 4 years this winter, crazy! The longest I've ever stuck with something, guess that's an accomplishment! I work pretty much every day, being the only girl that will work for my coworkers, my days off seldom come! After a days work I head up to The Warehouse where I check people in for Zumba and do other office stuff. I am now the only girl that works at the front desk, Monday-Thursday. I'm lucky to get in at least 30 minutes of Zumba and my body is definitely showing it, not in a good way people! It's fine though! You know... have you ever noticed that when people say "I'm fine", they really aren't? I have! But really... I am! haha! I'm just not use to working so much! I've always been the lazy one, the one who procrastinates about everything, the one who doesn't care, the one who all she wants to do is sleep... hmmm that doesn't sound like a very good person does it? Guess I just need to grow up and work like every other person does. But there's got to be more to life than just work, right? Anyways, there's my rant for the night! Now I could erase my craziness but this is who I am, this is me! We all have doubts and fears that we try to hide away from the world but what for? We all have them, so why not express them and learn from each other! Okay, I'm done before anything else comes from these fingertips... back to some Kenny and Dolly! "You make this, a Christmas to Remember. Springtime feelings in the middle of December!" gotta LOVE it!

Definitely NOT coming back... another GREAT find from Childhood Land!

Fun Times...

in the Fall! Pictures will definitely tell the stories here...

Random = Vegas Baby!

A little group of us consisting of myself, Jordan Hobley, Crystal Larson, and Sarah Polatis decided we would take a cruise down to Vegas just to eat at The Cheesecake Factory! We had some time before we ate so we stopped off at the outlets so Jordan and Sarah could go shopping, then off to the strip we went to eat! After eating we walked the strip, went to the Bellagio to see The Garden and Dancing Waters, went to M&M World, and had lots of fun and laughter! It was Crystal's first time in Vegas... hopefully we made a good impression!

 We were SO full but somehow managed to still eat Cheesecake!

 Jordan * and the Fish

 Lucky fella!

Thanks kids for such a quick fun trip! How about next time you don't critique my excellent driving! (Apparently none of them have driven in Vegas... Welcome to Vegas Baby!)

The First Thanksgiving Feast

Oh! My! This date was unbelievably fun! I don't think I have ever laughed so much on a date! I was a little hesitant on the whole thing but I knew I couldn't bail because well, it was my idea! haha! Everyone was in good spirits and we all had a lot of fun. Jordan played an Indian all too well, and yes he was shirtless the whole time! Our waitress and everyone else who came into the Village Inn was loving it, we definitely got lots of laughs from everyone! After our "feast" we went to the $2 theater and watched "Inception". Sarah and Mark weren't in the mood for a movie so they went home and then me and Jordan finished the night off together! One date, 2 guys, good for me! Thanks so much for your participation! It's gonna be hard to beat this date!!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

October Fun...

has come and gone, finally! I sure did have a lot of fun this October getting in on all the excitement but it sure was tiring all at the same time... "Bite of Vegas", "Thriller", Zombie Zumba, "HalloFunkaWeen Partay", and then Game Night to follow! Enjoy all the pictures... I sure do!!!

BITE OF VEGAS

 There was an all day concert event in Las Vegas called the "Bite of Vegas" where a bunch of food vendors come and they get a bunch of bands to come play. Although we did eat at Panda Express, we did join in on the festivities...

 Steph and Brooklin gettin ready for a fun day!

I don't think Brooklin knew what was going on!

Thanks girls for such an awesome day! I had a lot of fun with my 3 favorite girls ever!! Love ya!

THRILLER

So, the girls (Lindsey, Sarah, and myself) are sick of waiting for guys to ask us out on a date. I like to consider myself  "old-fashion" when it comes to dating but let's get real... it's 2010 and boys DO NOT ask girls on dates anymore, it's sad really! (or maybe they do and I'm just not one to get asked!) Well, we wanted to go see "Thriller" out at Tuachan and so we womaned-up and asked some fellas to come with us!

Laur & Bryan * Jordan & Kirstin * Sarah & Logan (not pictured because he is standing in the concession line to get himself a pretzel!) * Kole & Kylie * Lindsey & Scott

The show was great and we all had a great time! Afterward, like true ladies, we took the fellas to Krave for some ice cream! "What can I say, I'm a good date!" -Kirstin

ZOMBIE ZUMBA

It was the 2nd Annual Zombie Zumba Bash at The Warehouse. We all got to dress up like Zombies and then we learned the famous "Thriller" dance and had it recorded. After that we got to do our regular Zumba dances. It was so much fun and everyone looked great!! Good job Warehouse Zombies!!

 The Warehouse Family gone THRILLER!

 Lory and Nykole... amazing work!!

HALLOFUNKAWEEN PARTAY

So, me and Lindsey decided that Halloween can be a very fun holiday to participate in if you actually have something planned. Well, nobody ever seems to ever have anything planned so "Party Kirstin" came into play and... we had a party! We did a Celebrity/Movie Character/TV Character Themed Party! It took a lot of planning, a lot of money, and a lot of just getting it done! It became quite stressful there for a minute because we had no idea how many people would be showing up. We sent out invites on facebook and did some mad mass texting to everyone we knew, and then of course they invited whoever they wanted. We had to think about food, drinks, treats, and snacks, and making sure we had enough or too much... it was crazy! Saturday night came and little did we know... people actually came! A LOT of people came! People I didn't even know came! My house was packed full of people which I couldn't believe! It's still a blur because I was running around like a mad woman... taking pictures, making sure everyone got their picture with our amazing backdrop (which my friend Daniel Felix made for me!), trying to do a Scavenger Hunt, making sure the drinks were always stocked and treats were always out, music was always playing and trying to socialize with as many people as I could! I'm glad I got a little dancing in though! It turned out awesome and I've heard nothing but how great it was and how it was the best Halloween Party they've ever been to... that's makes me feel a lot better! There are tons of pictures, but these are some of my favorites...
