Speechless

Well, I certainly have no words to express myself... I was accepted into University of Washington! Although I will not be attending, I will always know that I was accepted. Wow, just awesome. PROOF that I should not doubt myself, and give myself the credit I deserve.

Thanksgiving 2011

Grandma and Don came to visit over Thanksgiving and it sure was fun. Big 22 pound turkey and all sorts of new recipes. Mom always said to not try new recipes for guests and she confirmed why. Sweet potatoes in the Crockpot were boring. Pumpkin Chiffon pie was a disaster, even with help from Don, the baker. Brie with figs and brown sugar was to die for. Thanks to Nicole for this idea. Oh wait, that’s me! =)

I had to work on Thanksgiving at MIDNIGHT, crazy shoppers. So I went to sleep after we ate around 7pm, and slept until 9:30pm. Then off to work. At least it wasn’t snowing! HUGE morning huddle with over 30 people, every cash register filled, line around the building. Crazy shoppers! Fun morning, but around 8am I started to feel those sleepy eyes. I went home and low and behold, my grandmother wants to drive to Bellingham to visit my new school. Ahhhh…I do it, and it sure is worth it. I fell asleep on the drive home. Here are some pictures of Western Washington University in Winter 2011.
