Trying to make time go faster.
Devon will be here on Saturday! Finally! I haven't seen him in almost 7 weeks. Time is seriously dragging though so I'm trying to find ways to pass the time...here's a survey for your pleasure.
1. What time did you get up this morning? I finally rolled out of bed at like 10:30 (I love days off, but I was awake way before this)

5. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be? North Carolina, it's so beautiful!
6. What did you have for breakfast? Ben and Jerry's Late Night Snack Ice cream. It's so good, vanilla bean ice cream, salted caramel swirl, and chocolate covered potato chips. Try it...and this only counts as breakfast because it's the only thing I ate before having dinner :)

My trip to NC!
Thursday: I flew from Milwaukee, to Atlanta, and then on to Charlotte. It was such a short flight compared to when I would fly to Vegas! It took like 2 seconds! I got into Charlotte around midnight so Devon and I just grabbed some food and went to bed (well he slept on the couch ha ha I had the bed).
Friday: Devon had class until 1ish so I lounged around until he got home. We then went to the mall to get Chick-fil-a for lunch!! I love Chick-fil-a but there aren't any around where I live. We browsed the mall for a while and then decided to see a movie. The movie we picked ended up being at the discount theatre and it was totally 80's decor. It had black and white tile floors and some super awesome green and purple walls. The tickets were 2 bucks each, super cheap right? That was until we got 2 sodas and a popcorn which cost us $15!! Yuck! The rest of the night we just stayed up playing card games (since that's our thing) and talking.
Saturday: woo hoo! More mall shopping! Really exciting for me in a variety of ways :) We bought a new game and came home and played it and other card games all night while watching Season 1 of How I Met Your Mother. We're both addicted to that show. It also was our 5 year anniversary of our first date, so we celebrated by eating Jack in the Box tacos and churros. We're classy I know.
Sunday: We spent the morning lounging around and Devon played the guitar for me while I was getting ready. It was so cute!! Unfortunately Devon's church is at 2:30!! How gross is that? 2:30-5:30 church and it was fast sunday, yuck. It actually was a really good, and I learned a lot, and was humbled a lot too. Everyone was super nice! That night was the SUPER BOWL!! It was so fun to watch considering the PACKERS WON! Booyah! My team rocks!! It was so good to rub that in Devon's face in person. We spent the rest of the night playing games and we ended up staying up til 4:30 am playing the question game. It was so fun!
Monday: I had to leave this day, but not until 6pm. Devon had class til 3, so I spent the morning cleaning his place for him and hiding little love notes all over. I also stocked his fridge with ice cream and bought cleaning supplies since he had none. I'm such a good girlfriend ha ha.
It was a fast trip, but I so love North Carolina. So much so that I'm probably moving there this summer :) maybe...hopefully...we'll see. I was dumb and didn't take any pictures on my trip but here is one I did take with my cell phone. Notice how Devon was trying to be anti-packers during the superbowl by wearing a Raiders t-shirt, even though they didn't even play in the game, while I'm wearing my Aaron Rodgers jersey with pride! (and blogger keeps putting this upside down even though its right side up on my computer)
Oh and my brother and Liz got back their wedding pictures and this one is my absolute fave, I have such a cute family:

5 months!
This post is extremely random and pointless, but I was sitting here and realized that tomorrow (in 6 minutes actually) is my 5 month-a-versary with Devon. We decided to count the day that we both told each other we still loved the other person as the day we got back together, even though it wasn't really "official" until September when he came out here. I seriously can't believe it's been 5 months! Time has flown and it has been amazing, but it's also hard to be so far apart. Right now as I type this Devon is driving across the country from Utah, to Mississippi to spend a week with his brother, and then onto law school in Charlotte. He starts on the 26th! It's 1600 miles from here to Cedar City, UT, whereas it's only 900 miles from here to Charlotte. Definitely a major improvement, but still not quite close enough.
I do get to go to Charlotte in less than a month, and I have never been there before! Everyone I talk to LOVES it, so I'm definitely excited for the trip. I'm also excited because that's the weekend of not only our 6 month-a-versary but also the Super Bowl! The funny thing is that our first date waaaaay back in 2005 was watching the Super Bowl! It's weird how things come full circle!
