SURPRISE!!!

Look who came to visit me:


Yep, that's my awesome friend Amy and her hubby Grant. They were originally supposed to come down for Memorial weekend, but flew in a {little} early because Grant's dad took a little joy ride on the old motorcycle. Thankfully he is doing very well and is out of ICU now. I told Amy that he just needed a visit from his sweetest daughter-in-law...and that seemed to do the trick! So they surprised me and showed up at my mother's house tonight. I had no idea Amy was in town until my mom read my blog and told me (I never see my blog on the weekends). Then Amy called when I was at my mom's house...and in my pajamas. The moment I got off the phone with Amy, my mom took me into her closet and forced me to change my clothes and put on lipstick. (Side note: if you look at my mother's day post you will notice that me and my mother are wearing the same thing...) She thought I looked a little trashy apparently. But it was good to see my old friend and get a little caught up. Can't wait to hang out with her this week while she is here!

On another note, this weekend has been pretty fun. I went to dinner with Lori, Ashlie and our newest friend to move to Arizona, Katy (and her mom). We went to the Elephant Bar and it was great/delicious! Then last night me, Lori and Janalee went to Applebees to celebrate Janalee's birthday. Afterwards we went to Janalee's house to play her new Wii (yes, I still want one for my birthday). It was a good time. We got Ashlie and Katy to join us, and believe it or not, a boy even came over!!! We rocked out to Guitar Hero and then got embarassed playing American Idol. All I have to say is "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a VERY fun song to sing! And Simon Cowell loved it too...

Now back to my previous post on my epiphany. Here is the picture I was telling you about:

This is what I have posted on my computer at work to help me stay motivated. So far it has worked pretty good. Atleast it makes me smile everyday. But this part right here is my favorite:

Interpretation: fat girl to skinny girl equals happiness and a diamond ring!

{Have a great week!}
