I should major in shopping...

So yesterday was graduation for Utah State University. My bestest friend Shasta graduated from college. I got her all ready for graduation doin' her hair and makeup... I even tried on her cap and gown and secretly wanted to ruin it just because it wasn't me that was graduating... *sigh* cute face huh? haha



Before graduation we went to this store called Hobby Lobby. It just opened up here in Logan and Shasta & I had to explore. We spent over 2 hours in there!!! We ended up needed 2 shopping carts and zig zagged our way through the store. I have to say... it's lOVE! That store is awesome.



Here are my findings~

The swirly cast iron wall decor... it was only $20... everything was 50% off!


(Oh we got new coffee tables and side tables, the apartment upstairs got new furniture in December, so when the girls moved out upstairs we ran up and grabbed them, our landlord only said "Well they look a lot cuter in your aparment, she refers to our apartment as the TajMahal of Notthingham Apartments cause it's decorated so cute.)




This sign is above the pantry door in our kitchen, when I found it yesterday I was laughing so hard!


THESE are my FAVORITE things I bought. It is a HUGE metal fork and spoon and the sign in the middle "Keep it Simple." They too were 50% off and were only like $10 each! It's in the wall of the kitchen!





This I got for a shelf in my bedroom... again 50% off. I thought how cool it would be when my roommates move back into the apartment in August to get each our letters of our name and hang them in the living room.


This past school year was the best ever that I have had with roommates. It was really hard to see Jennifer, Kira and Brandi leave. We really had a lot of fun this school year. I currently have NO roommates living in the apartment. Two will be moving in for the summer but they are both in Europe for different things right now so it's a BIT lonely when I'm awake... :o(

A quick update on work and other things:

Work: I love love LOVE graveyard. Nothing suites me better than this, and well when I HAD roommate it was perfect cause I got to see them so much more. The new position is pretty much an 8 hour workout which is good for my fat pah-toot!

Xavier: He is still having a lot of tests done weekly down in Salt Lake City but hasn't had any seizures since that weekend. So that's good news. They think he might have epilepsy but we'll see... thanks for your prayers.

Spring Semester: I sure did NOT do as well I hoped. This semester was more a personal growing semester than it was grade wise! I need to pay a fee I forgot to pay in order to get my grades, those tricky bookkeepers at USU, they sure do know how to get you to pay up!
