Christmas break has been SO much fun, and great time off before we finish our SENIOR year!

Christmas was wonderful! Except KJ and I missed our tradition ...for the first time in about eight years.

Brett gave me a BeAuTiFuL James Avery cross necklace that I absolutely adore. He also got me a bottle of the Be Delicious perfume which smells heavenly!

New Years was wonderful! Mrs. Archies wedding was so pretty and she looked like an angel. Laurens house was full of friends and Brett...the perfect group to start the year with! And I spent the first night of 2006 with my second family  (The Doskocils)

Senior Forte girls night...a.k.a. Desperate Housewives bash was tons of fun!! I love those girls and am glad that Meg now understands why the show is simply the best!

Of course one of the most enjoyable parts of this whole break has been all of the time I have gotten to spend with Brett  Spending the night at the ranch, four-wheeling, movies with his family, officially making Ryan think I am retarded haha, church at the Oaks :), kicking his booty in perfect dark (Brett just let me win this time ok, lol), planning out his move to Austin next Christmas!!!!!!!!!, the beginning search for a dog to have in that apartment, to all of our Sams pizza and movie cuddle nights...it has been the best. I love you more than anything Mr. Doskocil...

I am rejuvinated and ready for the last semester of school in Cedar Hill, Texas! This year is sure to be full of excitement, great and sad times, and lifechanging events...but most importantly it will be spent with the greatest group of people I have ever known. I love you all and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ok, I'm updating! Haha yes it would be at the time I should be studying my butt off for Biology exam tomorrow...but it's alright. I can't believe Christmas Break is almost here! We aren't goin on the snowboarding trip anymore  because they are leaving the 30th, and Forte has to sing at Mrs. Archies wedding on New Years Eve. Plane tickets are way too expensive this time of year. Sam is not going now because I'm not, which makes me feel even more horrible...but hopefully she will be spending New Years Eve with Brett and I!  

Anywho, the house is full out decorated, presents are wrapped under the tree, and mom is playing Christmas music 24/7 around here! I am sooo excited! Too bad all of this preparation is for one day then its just over.  blah. I'm really excited about the girls annual gift exchange get-together though! I love all of our traditional things we do every year. They are the best

Senior year could not have exceeded my expectations any more. This semester has been full of wonderful times with friends, family and, the greatest blessing God has given me, Brett. I have learned so much about who I am and what I want out of life over these past four months. I am now sure of where I am going to college, and am so thrilled that I will be able to spend time with Cara, James and the girls next year! The coming year of 2006 is sure to be one of the most eventful and fun-filled years of our lives! Yay Seniors!! Ok well I'm off and I love you all! Muah!

P.s. I love my mom more than she could ever know. I wouldn't be who I am if it wasn't for her...

I LOVE BRETT STEVEN DOSKOCIL!

I really dont know how to explain it...my life could not be more perfect now

I expected this weekend to be pretty fun and exciting, but I never imagined that it would be two of the most enjoyable days I can remember. WHERE TO BEGIN??

Friday night was Sam and Jareds rehearsal dinner. We met at Sam's house, and I finaly met the crew...everybody that I've heard so much about. The dinner was really good and I mingled mostly with Brett, Matt, and Justin (guys goin on snowboarding trip). After the dinner we split up...guys went to Jared's apartment for their little bachelor party, and the girls went to see Harry Potter!! First we made a trip to starbucks, where the girls told many stories...many that unfortunately included my darling boyfriend. hahaha. After the coffee, we headed to the movie theatre at Grapvine Mills. Of course, the theatre was very nice (esp. the seats), and the movie was wonderful! When the girls got back to Sams, Brett picked me up at about 1:30 and we made the 45 min. drive back home.

Saturday morning it was back up at 8:30 to shower and get my stuff together to leave again. We loaded up the car at 10:30 to be at the rehearsal by noon. Thanks to Justin , what should have been an hour drive, turned into two. lol, it was quite interesting. I was Sam's stand-in bride at the rehearsal because she didn't want to see Jared all day. After the rehearsal, the guys went back to Jared's to get ready, and the girls went back to Sam's. The two and a half hours we had until we needed to be back at the center, were pretty chaotic. Everybody was crammed into Sam's moms bathroom trying to get make-up and bridesmaids dresses on, while Katie fixed some of their hair. They all looked beautiful! Finally it was wedding time  We got back to the center and all the guys were in their tuxes. Brett looked very handsome  I sat down with Mrs. Gina and Mr. Mark. and the music started playing. They all started walking out, and when everybody had taken their places it was Sam's turn. Everybody stood up, as this titanic sounding song began playing (the one with the girl humming all high). She looked like a princess. As soon as Jared saw her, tears started streaming down his face, and many of us couldn't hold our tears in any longer. It was the sweetest thing I have ever seen. After the beautiful ceremony, we spent the rest of the evening eating and on the dance floor. Although it was mainly just us girls dancing around, Brett did come out there and dance with me a few times . It was such a wonderful evening. Sam, Leisl, Katie, Aaron, Heidi and Lori are so much fun to hang out with and I can't wait to see them again! I miss it all already . Anyway, we got back to Cedar Hill at about 11:30, Brett and I layed down and watched How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days, and crashed. I woke up at about 2:30 and went up to the third story bedroom and didnt get out of my bed, til he came up with his dogs at 10:30 this morning to wake me up.

What a weekend : ) Ill have some pics on here later hopefully!

Austin this weekend was awesome : ) Amber and I had the best girls weekend and I'm so glad it was with James and Cara. I love my family more than anything in this world...well almost . The UT game was amazing...we killed the poor other team ! It was so surreal actually being there. I looked around the stadium and literally thousands of people painted the stands a burnt orange. It was so awesome. Since we were with James, who used to play for the UT football team, we were in the Club Austin section where a lot of the alumni football players and cheerleaders sat, and hung out in this little club area. We met so many nice people and all of their wonderful friends! It was very exciting . Brett wasn't gung-ho about my excitement to be there, but he will also love Austin soon enough  Am and I got to spend time with the cutest little cousins in the world...which became the reason we both missed two days of school this week because they got us sick...but thats not the point, lol. I can't wait to be down there and babysitting those little sweethearts every week!!! Beau and Whitney came and picked us up from the dang mansion and he took us to Kirby Lane, a little restaurant in downtown Austin that is known for their queso and pancakes...i think? It was very good : )

Anyway, it's nice to be back home and feeling better again. TSA fieldtrip tomorrow so I will have three days of make-up work to do. yay...

 Pretty dang excited about Lauren's birthday present I must say

I don't know what I would do without a certain somebody. I never thought I would meet a guy who could make me want to be so much better. I don't feel like I really make bad decisions...he just makes me want to try to be my best 100% of the time. I feel like I can talk to him about everything and he always has wonderful advice for me because he has been there before. I don't care what people tell me they know from high school. That was four years ago, and he was a teenage boy. Ask any man if they are the same person they were when the were 17 and 18 years old. All I know is that he has been one of the biggest blessings God has placed in my life. That is all that matters. I love you Brett.
