October has been sooooo CRAZY this year! Man has it flew!!! I have been soo busy with school, homework, work, and trying to make it home as much as I can! Through all the craziness I have been feeling especially crafty. I have been looking for a cute coffee table, so I went to DI one day and I found one, sanded it down, and painted it red. All under 25 bucks!! It was a steal of a deal and turned out WAY cute! I also was wanting to get into the holiday spirit and had my wonderfuly talented big sister help me with a pumpkin craft! They were super easy and STINKIN cute! they look soooo GOOD in my apartment I must say! Thanks Jess!! Then one day I was walking through honks, and found these three metal stars- they were a dollar each so I bought them. They used to be gold and dark maroon but I spray painted them red and hung them under a sign I have had for forever- it turned out WAY cute also :) Last of all I bought this bookshelf from wally world- 15 bucks- but as we all know things like that from walmart are pretty flimsy and just kinda fall apart easily.. WELL my AWESOME parents have ALOT of beadboard left over from their house so I took the cardboard back home and my AMAZING dad and big Bro cut out a piece the exact same size. SO I painted it black, and nailed it on the back, VOILA a STURDY, CUTE new book shelf. :) I was quite proud of all my craftiness this month!
Another exciting thing that happened... I turned the big 21 on the 16th! Oh yay! Adulthood.... and it hit me pretty hard I must say. I recently bought my own vehicle, AND I am paying my own car insurance, and registration :( oh goodie! You don't realize how much money your parents spend on you until you have to pay for it all yourself! Thanks Dad and Mom for always being so patient and taking care of me! On a happier note I got to spend my birthday with two very dear friends of mine, Ainsley and Dani :) We had a blast! They took me to dinner, and then we went dancin! It was an AWESOME way to spend my birthday! Thanks girls! :)
After I got done hanging with the girls I had to make a mad dash home to good 'ol Burley- Jordan had homecoming and as the tradition goes all us older girls go home to help her get ready. It was fun! She is growing up to be such a beautiful girl! I love my goose and wouldn't have missed it for the world! She looked gorgeous! Jess did her hair- of course :) - and I did her makeup--
The last highlight of this month is Halloween of course. This was the first year I didn't dress up! I ended up spending it with my two favorite people in the whole wide world! My MoNkEy MaN and JeSs... The monkster was a TREX... oh man he really got into growling, chasing us around their house, and he would even "HUNT"... haha He was soooo ADORABLE! I love that boy! My big sister decided to dress along with Kayson so she was a cave woman... She looked so cute too! The Frick or Freatin (in Kayson's words) was my favorite part of the night.. He was so cute when people would open the door he would stomp his feet and say FRICK OR FREAT!!! I was laughing the entire night.. :) This was the perfect ending to my October... Thanks Jess and Kayson! Love you guys!!!
