gaylord was soooo fun. it was so nice to get away and just lay in the sun, read magazines and be lazy. lizs family was great and liz and i ate waaay too much good food. =) we came up with her mom and her cousin connor. he wasnt so bad on the 4 hour drive there and that suprised me. saturday morning liz's aunt susie and uncle eddie came with a cousin's five kids. =-o the youngest, jonah.. SO incredibly adorable. usually im not too fond of kids, but jonah was perfect. he's 2, and doesn't talk much, but when he seems something he likes he squeals or he'll point and go "woah..". he's so cute. and he has beautiful blue eyes and is so quiet and well behaved. when he'd cry, it'd last literally 10 seconds and he'd be back to playing or whatever. omg.. i hope my kids are like that. we got there friday night, which was later than we had planned. it was rainy so we just stayed in and watched tv. saturday, we got up and went swimming, and the lake was kind of mucky, but it wasnt so bad when you were on the rafts. we went into town and i bought a new bag and a shirt, and we were pulling into the parking lot of a thrift store when we realized the sign said closed, and so we statred to turn around. next door was a car wash, and one of the guys was turning the hose off and he waved and smiled at me so we pull up to him and he asks us if we want a free car wash, cause we're good like that.we were like, "why the hell not?" so he gave us one. it was cute. that night there were fireworks over the lake and it was so beautiful. whenever i watch fireworks i always feel like its supposed to be some sort of romantic thing and im never with anybody romantic when i see them. *shrug* liz and i were just sitting there, and shes like "hold me!" so she leaned back on me and i put my arms around her and her aunt susie took a picture. it came out really cute. sunday we got up early and went back into town so liz could buy a shirt she saw that she liked. the store was closed though.. so liz her mom her grandma and me went to all the antique shops on main street. one of them was soo gorgeous. it had every sparkly thing you could ever think of. it looked amazing. i wanted it all. but i bought a purpleheart ring for 4 bucks and a pair of earrings for ten. =) we bummed around a little and then spent the rest of the day swimming, and that night we had a bonfire. i love bonfires. we left monday night and got home around ten thirty. i spent the night again and her and i went swimming in my dads pool and then went to ruby tuesdays, and im here for the night again. tomorrow im going with liz to her coldstone interview and then my dads coming to get me so i can go home and change for my interview at buckle!!!!! job = more incentive to get a car. speaking of car.. dad and i are checking out a red jeep cherokee down the street when he comes to pick me up. only 4300. wish me luck! <3
