The most boring drive ever....

If you've ever driven to Weatherford then you'll probably agree with me when I say it's the most boring drive ever. Josh met my parents last night briefly when he came to pick me up. That went really good. Then we headed to Weatherford. We stopped off in Hinton at Red Rock Canyon where he used to work to see some friends of his there, then we were back on the road. We made it to Weatherford around 6:15 and went to his friend Matt's house. Matt is quite possibly one of the funniest people I've ever met. A group of us went out for dinner and then went back to Matt's house to hang out. We had such a good time. On our way out of Weatherford we stopped at a park and sat in the bed of Josh's truck and looked at the stars. SO romantic. It looked like someone spilled glitter on black cardstock. (I'm such a scrapbooker!) The stars were breathtaking and Josh is AMAZING. It was, by far, the best date EVER.

School today was decent. I didn't get home until 1:00am this morning and then I had to get up early for my 8:30 class. I'm exhausted. I only have one class tomorrow, so then I can come home and crash. *cheeers for that*

Change of plans....

We ARE going to Weatherford. He's picking me up in 30 minutes.

I'll give you all the details tomorrow.

XOXO,
Holly

Very productive....

What a productive weekend I've had so far! I made this new layout of me and the boyfriend. It's similar to the last one, but just a little different.

I made this layout of me and my friend Leslie using the new Basic Grey line, Mellow. I love this one so much, it's so retro. It reminds me of a dress from the 70's...like something you'd wear on your first day of school.
Ready to see my antique store treasures? I found these two vintage aprons and fell in love with them. The one on the left is my favorite, but I still really really like them both.

More antiquing treasures! I think these are old food stamps. I'm not sure exactly, but I love these pictures, especially the big one on the right, and isn't that little spoon precious?

So, Josh and I aren't going to Weatherford tomorrow. His friends aren't going to be in town, so we're going to do something else...not sure what yet, but as long as we get to spend time together it doesn't matter what we do.

Why I Love College....

I love how in college every student group has its own shirt. I joined the OU College Republicans today and I got these two awesome shirts. I came home and put on the "Dubya is my Homeboy" shirt, so that's why it's a funny picture.

Classes were alright today (except for Spanish) so...I dropped it when I got home this afternoon. I really have to make good grades this semester and Spanish was going to eat my lunch, so in order to keep a good GPA, I dropped it. I know I'll have to take it later, but as for now....delay delay delay.

Leslie and I went out last night. I haven't seen her in a while, so it was nice to spend time with her, we went out to dinner and then to her sister's house. Josh called while I was over there and we invited him over, so he came and met Leslie and Stephanie and hung out with us for a while. It was lots of fun. Leslie loved him, so that's definitely a good thing. Poor Josh worked 16 hours today. He went in at 10:30 last night and got off at 2:00 this afternoon. He has to be back up there at 10:30 tonight and will get off at 11:00 tomorrow morning. Bless his heart!

I better get going....I have some reading to do for class and then I want to scrapbook some more pictures of me and Josh tonight.

First Day...

On a scale of 1-10, I'd give my first day a 7. My Spanish class is going to kick my butt...not looking forward to that one bit. My other two classes seem decent....we'll see though.

Josh and I went out for dinner tonight. He's so funny, today he said, "Hey, did you make anything with the pictures we took together?" WOW! Is that his way of encouraging me to make a layout of us? I took it that way so.....

How cute is that? Seriously. I love it. It's the new Daisy D's, some vintage lace and a button along with Heidi Swapp letters. So adorable.

5 Whole days?

It's been 5 days since I last poste? Craziness. Well if this makes you feel any better....

In the past 3 days....I've worked 32 hours and only gotten about 6 hours of sleep each night. I'm exhausted....just in time to start school...TOMORROW! Nice, huh?

Josh and I are officially together now too. He's a really great guy and I like him a lot. We have so much in common...hopefully good things lie ahead for us.

And then there's school....*sigh* is it that time already? Yes...it is. Tomorrow I have Spanish, Art History and Human Geography and then on Tuesday I've got Physical Geography and a lab for something....is it bad that I can't remember what it's called?

Off to bed now....I'll give you the full report on school tomorrow!

The Boy...

This is the boy. His name is Josh. He's sweet. He makes me laugh. I think I'll keep him.


My sister met him tonight and loved him, so that's definitely a good thing. He's such a country boy with his cute little accent. As a matter of fact, I think we're taking a little road trip to Weatherford on Sunday to see some of his friends. Sweet!

My work called me tonight and asked me to work tomorrow and Friday from 10-6 and pretty much told me to work on Saturday from 10a-10p. No Paper Crown for me this weekend...that makes me terribly sad.

Rock That Apron Girl....

Aren't these vintage aprons adorable? Leave it to Corrine to find these little gems. We wore these for the Make & Takes on Saturday at The Paper Crown. What fun we had! It was such fun to get to be with the 3C's and spend the afternoon together with our customers. Good times....





LOVE LOVE LOVE this blue apron. (Psst! Did you see my pretty strawberry necklace?)


Sassy Lady! Look at that pose! One hand on her hip, Make & Take in the other hand...totally in her element. You go girl! (Does anyone still say that anymore)

Corrine....http://sassyseesassydo.typepad.com YOU'RE IT!

Well hello there stranger

Tonight was my date with Josh. We went out for dinner and had a great time. It was the perfect way to end a terribly rotten day. We're both working 11-7 tomorrow, so that'll be fun. He got a new truck on Monday (with the new car smell! Mmm!) That's all I'm saying! Seriously. Nosy people!

So tired. I worked all day long and it just about killed me...off to bed!

Party Like A Rockstar

I went to watch Josh's softball game last night. His team won both games, so he was pretty excited about that. (Therefore I was excited too). We hung out for a while. He's pretty darn awesome....a total rockstar. *ha ha*

I ran to The Paper Crown this morning and got to spend some time with Corrine. She's the best. We spent some time brainstorming. She's got an amazing idea for a swap. Ooh la la!

I have to be at work tonight at 7, so I'll need to leave here in about 25 minutes. It's my first night shift so that should be interesting.

Off to change! Wish me luck!

Stuck In My Head...

I'm one of those people who gets songs stuck in their head easily. Right now it's Hinder's "Better Than Me". Find it. Listen to it. Love it.

Today was such a productive day! I made this cute little crown using the new Prima line, however, right after putting it up there I sold out of it. *boo*


Then I made this little pretty. I love the butterfly punch. So pretty and feminine! I used white paint and painted around the edges of the picture to soften it up a bit.

Whitney is on her way home right now! SO excited about that. I can't wait to see her and Drew. I'll post pictures of them later. Toodles!

This is...

Where I work! This is the ER....from the street anyway. I've spent 5 days on the job and it's FANTASTIC. I learn so much and meet so many new people every day and let me say this....I've seen some crazy shit. The ER is such a....diverse place, a little bit of this and a little bit of that.

Speaking of new things, I met someone new! He just started working at the hospital too and was in my orientation class, he works in Security. To protect the innocent, I'm not going to say his name on here, but he's pretty great. I think we're going to try and go out this weekend! *giggles* Whee!

I'm working at The Crown this weekend and I'm SO excited. It seems like I haven't worked in forever! My my how time flies! See you tomorrow!
