Happy Memorial Day!

I'm happy to report that we've had (and are still in the process of having) a wonderful weekend! We drove down to Shreveport on Friday after school and have spent our weekend relaxing, grilling out, going to the pool, and just being LAZY! It's been wonderful! J

It was soooo nice to be able to sleep in today and know that in just 4 short more days, summer will officially be here! I have a ton of stuff still left to do before school gets out, but I'm not going to think about that today. There's time for that tomorrow! I hope that you all are having a wonderful Monday off and enjoying time relaxing with friends and family! I know I am!

Remembering all those who have fallen…

The Secret's Out!

I'm so excited that I can FINALLY say that my best friend Kyrbie is going to be a Mommy! :) She told me a couple of weeks ago, but I've had to keep it a secret until now. Last night she and her husband, Will, finally made it official on Facebook, so I guess it can be official in the blog world too! ;)

I am so unbelieveably happy for her! We've been best friends for 12 years now and have gone through high school and college together, been in each other's weddings, and now will begin this brand new journey into motherhood!

Kyrbie Alexis, you are going to be such and amazing mother and I am SO excited for you both! I love you best friend! Baby White is in for some major spoiling from "Aunt" Chelsey! Yay for new babies and best friends!

Graduation Pictures!

Sorry it's taken me so long to get around to posting pictures of my graduation! Here are a few, but you can check out the whole album on Facebook! Graduation was a big success and I was so blessed to have family and friends come out to support me! Love you all!

Love,
Master Chelsey!

hmmm..

My husband has been complaining about the lack of clean clothes in his closet and dresser drawers and that I have not been doing laundry lately. I have NO IDEA what he's talking about!

;)

Graduation Day (well actually tomorrow)!

Tomorrow I will FINALLY graduate with my Masters in Elementary Education! It's been a long three years coming!

Three years ago, I entered the program because some co-workers of mine were going to do it, I honestly didn't have anything holding me back, it sounded like a good idea at the time, and I didn't have anything better to do! ;)

Now, fast forward 2 years later and I met Bryan. This is when my classes started getting crazy and I'll admit, there were times when I seriously decided just giving up on the whole thing and quitting. I probably would have, but Bryan convinced me that I had worked so hard and all of my hard work would be for nothing if I quit, so I didn't. J

Tonight, I'm very glad that I stuck with it and proud of all my hard work! J It's a different feeling this time around. I think about my high school graduation, my college graduation, and now my master's graduation and all of the different feelings I remember having. This time, I just feel relief and happiness, at knowing that my schooling has finally come to an end. A perfect ending! J Stay tuned for more graduation updates tomorrow and pictures of the graduate! After tomorrow, you may all call me "Master Chelsey"! J

Looks like a bullet kind of night…

Let me start by saying that I feel like the world's biggest slacker! I have really great intentions of blogging, but there always seems to be something more pressing that needs to be done. Poor blogger has been put on the back burner lately. Hopefully we can remedy that soon, but until then…bullets it is!

Chelsey turns the big 2-7!

So, I'm just now getting around to posting about my birthday which was on 4-25. Yes, I've been a bit busy!

I had a wonderful weekend celebrating my birthday! My awesome team (with the help of my husband) surprised me the Friday before with lunch from Chick-fil-A, homemade chocolate cake, a dozen red roses, and a sweet card! Yep, they totally rock! Of course another great birthday gift was that my new dining room table arrived! Whoo hoo!

That afternoon my sister Charity and her boyfriend Luke came up, along with my SIL Rachel and MIL Willa. We decided to do dinner and a movie and had lots of fun. We went and saw The Backup Plan with Jennifer Lopez. It was ok, but not as good as I expected. I'd recommend waiting until it comes out on dvd!

My FIL Bob drove up after work on Friday night to join in all the fun! Saturday morning we slept in, Bryan and Bob made a wonderful breakfast and then we spent the rest of the morning being lazy! We all got ready that afternoon and drove to Arlington to meet my bestie Morgan at Cheddar's Café. We had a great time at dinner, then headed over to the ballpark! We went to the Ranger's game that night and had a blast, even though they lost L.

Sunday morning, we got up and went to church, then came back and cooked a yummy lunch! I opened my gifts and then we just spent time watching t.v and hanging out. It was a great birthday weekend and thanks to all who came to participate! Love ya'll!
