So, last night around 4pm I had a strange array events take place. See, back when I was 5 during '87-'88 my family had an exchange student live with us. His name was Masao and he was from Japan. He lived with us for a whole year... went to our high school and really was a part of our family. Well, he's been back to the states when Mom was sick and after Mom had passed away. He and Dad had kept in contact via email and whatnot. Well...

...

He arrived on my front porch last night, for a one night visit. So, I quickly got the family together and we had a very fun get together for him. Then, today my cousin Ben took him around North Vernon. The main reason of his visit was to visit Dad and Mom's grave and to lay flowers down for them. He said he needed to come to make sure it was real. So, for all of you... here are some pictures of last night's very fun visit. When I have more time, I'll give a real update.

Well, tonight I went out to dinner with the ladies that I work with... it was amazing!! I never knew these ladies were as wild as I am. We had a wonderful time at Red Lobster, and Mark the waiter was quite cute, and was hitting on me the whole night. So, we asked him to have his picture with me. The doll you see is "Mr. Wonderful"... any questions, I'll answer, if you ask. So, enjoy. Oh, and we stopped random places to take our picture. It was amazing... ENJOY!!!

Nothing really new to post. For those of you who know me, know that I wear my mother's pearl ring on my "wedding ring" finger and that it has diamonds around it. Well, this one kid at school, who wants to date me, told me he didn't ask me out because I had an engagement ring. (Note: this kid is a special learning child) Then, today, in Jeremy's classes, I had 6 different people ask me if I got engaged. Maybe since it's Christmas they decided to look at my hands more or something, I dunno. I had to tell them the sad news that I'm not, but I still thought it was funny. Wow, they think I'm old enough to be engaged. Technically I am old enough, but sure not ready.

On a happier note, not that above isn't happy, I only have two more days until Christmas break!! Soo stoked to have some time off from work. Once the new year begins I think I'm gonna start looking for a second job... so, we'll see. Anywho, I need to go work on some Christmas gifts. Just thought I'd share my funny story about the kids thinking I'm engaged. I should have told them I was, but I don't want to ruin the fact that they might have a HOTT older brother!!! haha!!

Who am I kidding?!?!... I'm gonna marry Brandon Stokely!! Okay, with that being said, I'm leaving!! Love to you all, and Happy Monday!

Indianapolis Colts 13-1!!! I know some of you aren't happy with that record, but believe it or, I am. I think it was good for our team to lose now and not in the play-offs! Call me crazy, but I still love my Colts! So, yeah, I took 51 pictures today at the Dome, and I'm not going to bore you with them all. I'm just going to show you a select few, and some really funny ones.

Since I'm procrastinating on making my sugar cookies, I thought I'd share the pictures that I took of my house the other day. I still say its my parents house, but since I live here alone, I guess that makes it mine. I also have some pictures of my puppies, which I'll probably share with you also. Near the end you can also see some outside pictures (that aren't so good) of my Christmas decorating. I think I got a lil' camera happy with my new digital camera... So, enjoy. :) Oh, and check back tomorrow because I'll post the pictures of my Colts game experience when I get home.
