2008 So Far

Hello everyone! :) I am so sorry for my lack of blogs on here lately, but I've had a lot going on! I'll try to fill you in as best as I can!
On New Year's Eve, I had to work. I ended up cutting my finger when I was doing the dishes, but luckily, someone else then helped me, so I didn't have to put my finger in the water so much. When I got home from work, I went to a party with some friends from work. There were six of us total. We ate some food and drank grasshoppers, which I love! Then, we went into the girl's living room and played board games. She has a fireplace and it was so hot that we had to open the door for awhile. We played Cranium, which I'd never played before. This guy, Tony, and I were on a team together and we started off doing really well, but then it went downhill, LOL. We all had a really fun time. We had a strawberry champagne toast a little after midnight, since we weren't paying attention to the time. We then played Balderdash and then Taboo. By that time, we were kind-of tired and I kept giving Tony really bad clues and all we did was laugh, LOL. It was almost 3:30 by the time I got home.

On New Year's Day, we had my relatives over and opened Christmas presents, since we weren't able to do it on Christmas Day. My uncle was acting really funny and had us all in tears from laughing so hard.
On January 4th Tony and I went to see the new National Treasure movie, which we both liked. We then went to his house and watched TV. A few days later, he came over to my house to watch Blades of Glory and then we watched some TV. On January 12th, I went ice fishing with him, his two uncles, and his dad. It was my first time ice fishing and it was a lot of fun! I caught 15 fish, but 7 had to be thrown back because they were too small. I was starting to get cold towards the end, but I had a great time!
On Thursday, the 17th, it was my mom's birthday so I made a chocolate cake with white frosting from scratch. We went over to my grandma's house. We even played "Pin the tail on the donkey", which was hilarious! We were all laughing so hard and had a great time.

On Friday, the 18th, I went with my parents and brother to IL to visit relatives. I got to see my little nephew who just turned one and also my Godson. Both of them had colds though and didn't feel too well! We had pizza for dinner and then had cupcakes. We let the boys open presents and then just hung out for a little bit. It was great to see my cousins again!

On Saturday, we went to see my grandparents. My two aunts and uncle also came over. We had lots of food to eat and lots of dessert, so I didn't feel very well by the time we left!
That is all for now. Thanks for reading and happy February! :)
Love,
