My happy place

Weekend Recap

This weekend was seriously great! I definitely wouldn't mind reliving it again.

Friday I went to dinner then Boone Hall Fright nights with some friends and had so much fun. It wasn't SCARY but I did scream/jump when things jumped out in front of me. haha We went on a hayride with a bunch of girls who were acting like they lost their minds. Basically I ended up with lots of bruises from these crazy chicks and didn't get to see anything really from the hayride. Besides that though everything was really fun.

Saturday I slept for 12 hours because this past week I hardly slept at all so I needed to catch up. I did a TON of laundry and then went to the gym to tan and workout. GTL haha sorry for the Jersey Shore reference. That night I went to dinner with Kelly and Derik. Oh and I finished the night with the movie Bad Teacher. It was pretty funny I would definitely watch it again.

Sunday my new friend Jen and I took a little day trip up to Myrtle Beach to just get away from Charleston. Even if it was for one day we both agreed it just felt nice to leave Charleston for a little bit.
Our first stop was to the Alligator Adventure place at Barefoot Landing in North Myrtle Beach. I had always wanted to go but of course nobody ever wanted to go with me. Jen was game though so we got to go. We got in for cheap with a military discount thank God. We enjoyed it but definitely not $18 per person enjoyment lol We both got in for the price of one so it was nice. We saw some crazy huge gators and lots of other random animals.











He was eating him some chicken. yum yum

There were tons of gators just chillen all over the place.



Mr. Albino Gator He was actually quite interesting to see.

This guys name was Bob and poor bob was born with no tail. I felt bad for the little dude. He was still 4ft long though.



After we left the gator place we went to The Bass Pro Shop. She had things to buy, me not so much. haha it was entertaining to look at all the stuff they had and they had a TON of stuff. I even got my picture with a Redneck Santa hat! Cute right?



At this point we decided it was time for lunch (2pm) and headed to Broadway at the Beach. We ate at Margaritaville and it was SO good. We both got some HUGE drinks and mine was strong. So by the time we ate and left I was feeling pretty relaxed. We ended up shopping and just looking around at all the tacky tourist treasures.




And we sexually harrassed a bear. woops our bad!





yummmmm

Rice Krispie Treat anyone? We got plenty!

(No we didn't buy it)



Such a great weekend and hopefully next weekend will be just as good. No clue whats going on but I am sure something fun will go down. I do have a family Halloween party which will hopefully be decent.


Happy Monday!

Happy Day

Good Morning everyone! I hope you are all doing spectacular this morning! I know I am despite the fact I have to deliver mail in the rain haha. Gotta love when your co-worker calls out on a bad weather day but he is truly sick like so many people right now. I got to spend my morning with this little guy! He always likes to come hang out with me while I get ready for work. Normally I find him in my bed when I get back to my room from the shower. This morning he must have not heard me and ended up crying at my door! Poor guy!


I thought this picture was so cute! And since I recently got my I-phone I can semi mess with the pictures using instagram. I know I am behind the times and so many of you already use it. But hey it is new to me and I just love it. I am going to look for some more fun apps for photos so if you know of any good ones let me know :)




Last night I looked at halloween costumes and I really have no clue what on earth to be this year. It just seems like it's the same costumes year after year..... I might have to get creative or something this year. I also want something I will be semi comfortable wearing since I will probably end up in it all night long.




On another note..... I have been smiling so much that my cheeks literally hurt last night. haha is this ok? jk I know it is ok but seriously it's nice to feel like this. :D




Time to get going and get some stuff done before mail deliveries which will be allllllllllll day!




Happy Humpday!!!

3 day weekend

How is another weekend already over? I even had an extra day and it flew past! Oh well haha
This weekend was such a great one!
Friday night was amazing I will just leave it at that!
Saturday I woke up early went grocery shopping with Kelly Welly and got my eyebrows waxed. Then I headed up to Sumter, SC with the family to go to my great Aunt Mickey's 90th birthday party. She looks so great and I was beyond happy to see her. She has always been one of my favorites! Here are some pictures!

Izzy being super cute as always

This was one amazing chocolate cake that everyone had to eat with their fingers. Sucks when you run out of forks
Mommy and me! I love this picture!
Aunt Mickey, Me and my papa
She was so sleepy she kept laying on the floor.
Who knows? haha

Show us your scary face!!!!
Sunday was pretty great. I woke up super early and went to church with Kelly. I wish I went to church more but I don't want to go alone and Kelly is never in Charleston anymore. Boo :( anywho we went to lunch, American Eagle and then to Cactus Carwash to get my car cleaned. It now smells like yummy strawberries! Then I hit up the gym for some reason I have semi lost my motivation. Not sure what's up but I better find it soon. My nights plans ended up changing so I ended up going to dinner and a movie with my friend Laura and her friend Amanda. We saw 50/50 which we all thought was going to be funny but it was semi serious and we didn't exactly love it.
Today I woke up early and went to the gym. I had an OK workout but it could have been so much better. I then went to see my friend Norrissia and then to my grammys house to chill with my aunt. She made some fried shrimp and it was SO yummy!
Nor's little girl Nevaeh. She is such a cute kid!
I know I am not ready to go back to work tomorrow but I am hoping I get to see someone after so it should still be a good day! :)
Hope you all had a great weekend! I know I did :)
I haven't felt this happy in SOOOOO long!!! I really hope it stays this way :)

Happy Friday




1. Something popular that I can't stand/just don't "get" is....I guess people being obsessed with tv shows. I don't have a show that I just have to watch. Honestly I don't really even watch much tv to begin with.


2. Something unpopular that I secretly love is.....ice skating. It's not unpopular but it certainly isn't popular.


3. When I've had a bad day I ....Go walk on the beach or go to one of my favorite parks all of which are located on the water. I guess really something about the ocean/harbor just calms my soul and I love it.


4. I'd prefer 1 amazing friend to a ton of non-amazing friends any day.


5. Something that makes me nervous is....The thought of ever having children. This down right scares the mess out of me. I really think the whole mommy gene skipped me. I just don't have it.


6. Something worth fighting for is.....Love


7. When people think of me, I hope they think....that I am a good person with a huge heart one I tend to wear on my sleeve

Loving Life

It's ok to do a weekend recap on Tuesday right? Better late than never I say :)

This past weekend was definitely one to remember! I had the best times and realized a lot about myself. Go figure! haha

Friday night Laura and I had planned to go out and have some fun downtown. We had dinner with one of her friends at King Street Grille then headed to Market Street. We ended up spending most of our night where she works. I won't post that in case we have some stalkers reading this thing. You never know lol We ended up spending a ton of time on their front porch with one of her friends parents. It was really nice since the weather was getting cooler and they were great company. We ended up heading to a few other places on market street but they were just ridiculously crowded. Oh and I almost got in a fight with a guy who was at his bachelor party. I will tell you what happened in a nut shell. He was hitting on us, got rejected, told us he was at his bachelor party, he had a few choice words to say to Laura and I and I had a few to say back.... commence Sara about to kick his butt! Luckily for him his friends saw I was pissed and continued on with making him leave. Talk crap about me thats fine but do NOT talk crap about people I care about. Anywho the rest of the night we were at her job. After everything closed we ended up chillen out back with a ton of her co-workers. She learned how to skateboard and we met a group of guys and one of them apparently was too scared to talk to girls. So of course Laura decided to help! haha






Skateboarding

Shy guy


Saturday I got in a great workout and got to see an awesome someone. I got ready and went to a jewelry party. My friend Ashley has just started to sell jewelry so I went to support her plus I got some awesome jewelry so it was a win win situation! :)


I left there and went to Suede to hang out with my girl Nor and her hubby Dom and a TON of their friends. I felt a bit awkward at first but things got a lot better as her friends started to get to know me and ended up liking me. I always get nervous meeting new people especially an entire group of people I don't know. Suede wasn't as great this time like it was at Nor's bday party but it was still an ok time! I got to spend some time talking to Nor so that part was what made it all worth the trip out there.


Love this girl!


On Sunday I woke up late-ish and decided the Blackberry was DONE. It was time to spend some money and get a decent phone. I was deciding between a droid or an Iphone. Well guys I got the Iphone 4 and I freaking love it. I am still figuring it out though seeing as it is WAY different than my blackberry. The touch screen is probably the hardest thing to get used to. I love this phone though and wish I had gotten it earlier.


My first picture with my Iphone. Haha don't judge me! It takes WAY better pictures than my stupid blackberry. Whenever I posted pics to my facebook one of my friends would always comment if you had a better phone that picture wouldn't suck (quality wise).

And the end of my Sunday just made it all that much better :D

Hope you all had a WONDERFUL weekend!!! Happy October and enjoy the rest of the week! :D
