My 21st Birthday

Yep, I am 21 now!!! I know I am a little delayed in getting these pictures up here, but I kinda forgot I had a new camera (I got one from the Wegescheide family for my b-day). ON my actual birthday I went to a graduation party and they gave me a jello shot. Then my family went out to Applebees and my daddy bought me my first alcoholic drink. I got a bahama mama. It was pretty good...very fruity. The day after my birthday I had a bunch of friends from school over and we went swimming, played volleyball, had a bbq, and hung out. It was a double birthday party for me and one of my friends and also a going away party for my friend Mike because he was leaving for basic training. Here are pictures from the party taken with my NEW camera!!


Here's the whole gang that was over!


Swimming in the pool

Playing some volleyball


Showing off our muscles


Making a giant whirlpool


I'm a huge fan of the movie High School Musical, along with some of my friends from school, so of course, I had to make a High School Musical cake to match the cool plates that I got!


And of course, Mike's cake had to be camouflage since he is going into the army reserves


Making a wish and blowing out the candles!


Here are the 3 stars of the party...me, mike, and katie

Party at the Lighthouse!

Last night was my last night in Mt. Pleasant for the summer and we had a party at the Lighthouse (one of the womens' houses for His House-church). It was a lot of fun and we had a lot of food, including a chocolate fountain!!!


Here is a picture of all our food...we had pizza too, but it's not in the picture


Enjoying the chocolate fountain!

Me and Colleen

I love these girls!

Playing Twister...dancer vs. gymnast...we tied

It stormed and there was a rainbow outside the house

And a beautiful sunset

Doing the Macarena

Dancing to Billie Jean outside because there wasn't enough room inside

Mmmm....cake!!!!

It's been awhile!

I know it has been over 2 weeks since I made a post, and that is mainly due to the fact that my camera is officially broken. Missouri Matt was also here for the past week and a half and I was busy hanging out with him, going to class, doing homework, and working. Anyway, I have finally gotten around to making a post of the past week or so, so enjoy! There are only pics of the things that other people took pictures of since I don't have a camera....


The day after Matt got here, we went tubing down the Chippewa River with a group of about 20 people from His House. It was really fun!!





We had 3 squirt guns that came with us down the river...that made for some fun water wars

Andrew came up to go tubing with us too!!

After tubing, we had a big bbq at the men's house with burgers, corn on the cob, and so much more!

On Monday, Mike came to visit on his day off from Spring Hill. We hung out with him and he came over and did laundry at my apartment.

One day for lunch, me and Matt decided to go to Buffalo Wild Wings

We got boneless chicken wings because it was boneless Thursday which means they were cheaper then usual. We also got chili cheese fries.

Mmmm...they were tasty!!!

On Saturday was brother Matt's graduation party. Here are some people playing volleyball

All the food that I snacked on ALL day long!

Pics of my baby bro...he's all grown up now!

Aren't we cute?!

Matt playing with a poncho that he bought as part of his mom's gag birthday present

Trying to study for my crazy exam on the last night that Matt was here

It wasn't very fun...but I think I ended up doing good on it!

I love you Matt!
