Better late than never!

wowww. So I have totally been LAZY and have not posted in ages! I really miss it! :( but yea I have just been putting it off, but now i'm back! Well a lot of stuff has gone on, but i'm not going to even try to sit here and remember it all, so I am just going to continue on with what's happening now!
Well it is spring break and I literally just got back from my trip! Here is a recap! :)

Saturday: Ah.. the weekend, spring break had not really set in yet... My family and I left for "the armpit of Texas" at around 9 am. The reason my parents chose to go to this area was because it was were my dad grew up and we had not been there in ages! Also they wanted us to do some random things.. haha. Anyways so we set off on the long drive. On the way, we stopped in Aggieland for lunch at Rosa's. Then my whole family freaked out b/c there was a Ben & Jerry's ice cream store, which I had never seen! I got triple caramel chunk, and boy was it good! We continued on to Beaumont where we met my dad's old buddy and his girlfriend. We talked with them, and then met more family friends for dinner at a Cajun place. Yuck. I don't like fish so this did not go over so well, I even got a steak and it was not good. Though I did try alligator which was actually ok! lol

Sunday: Me and my mom and our girl friends from Beaumont went shopping. I didn't really get much cause I am trying to save :( lol. We then ate lunch at a great burrito place called Geo's followed by some more shopping. Then that night we gathered with more friends to eat at Pei Wei, my favorite! :)

Monday: Me and my mom went prom shopping! Or at least tried to.. the prom store we went to was not that great, bummer. We ate Jason's Deli for lunch, went to the James Avery store, and did some more shopping. Then.... Caroline and I did this really weird thing at the mall. Basically you get in these giant balls (kinda like the balls that hamsters run in except they are plastic) that float on water and you just run and jump around inside them.. it was really cool! Then that night we went over to friends' house and had take home Chicken E!

Tuesday: We got up and left Beaumont for Houston. On the way there we stopped at the San Jacinto Monument which is the historical site where Texas actually won it's independence from Mexico. It's cool cause its the actual land were the troops fought Santa Anna for Texas' Independence! Then after arriving in Houston, we met up with some friends and visited and went to Chuys! yummmmyyy! Finally we finished the day at my dad's cousin's place were we spent the night.

Wednesday (today): We started our tip back to the wood! We first went the Katy Mills mall (which is ahhmazing) to look at some prom dresses for me... and I found about 2 that I want, but can't decide on! So we did that and looked around the mall for a little bit, then ate lunch at Fuddruckers. Next, we went to Brenham were we went to the Blue Bell Ice Cream Factory for a tour! It was so fun, probably my favorite part of the trip! We saw how the it was made, and got free ice cream! yay!!! After that we basically began the last leg of our trip home.. about 5 hours!! agh! but it wasn't too bad cause I watched 2 movies! lol.

Well that's my trip! It was random, buy fun and relaxing! I love spending time with my family! Anyways, I'm not going to put off blogging anymore.... hopefully ;)       
Also... a word to my friends.. If you are reading this and have not posted in forever like me.. GET BACK INTO IT!! you know its fun ;) i miss reading your posts!
