back to nc...

so after a few long and amazing days i am back to nc.... its been an AMAZING week. one of the best i have had in a long long time. i spent everyday all day with paula and chad... we had a blast. really. i laughed so hard. worked so hard on their new place. ate so much! slept so little. truly just enjoyed my time with those two. we did lots and lots and got their townhouse ::or at least parts of it:: looking much younger and not so much like grandma land. (they are SO blessed /lucky... they are moving into chad's grandmothers 4bedroom townhouse! its decorated quite grandmotherly, but they get one room for their stuff and their decorations. oh and let me add grandmother doesn't live there... so a 4bedroom 3 1/2 bath for THEMSELVES!) yeahhh it was fun hanging out there and laughing and giggling and being silly girls...

anyway my parents also came up (we were in chattanooga, tn) so i was able to spend a bit of time with them which is also quite nice!! an amazing part though was when my parents were taking me back to the airport... they surprised me with SARA!! she was waiting for me there. i was so shocked... i just started crying. i didn't want to leave!! i just wanted to stay and talk and do nothing with her!!! but really. best surprise ive had in so so long!

anyway i flew home... and came home to 24 hours of work in a 48hour time span... loads of fun let me tell you. actually both days of work were really good- just long and so tiring! especially since i didn't exactly catch up on loads of sleep last week! anyway- i have lots of laundry to do, a room to clean and some groceries to get...

but its looking like i will be heading home to GA for HOMECOMING. :) good old lagrange. really i miss it so much! life was amazing. easy. my friends were a walk away. best 4 years of my life... anyway im pumped. so october it is!! see you all then... :)

oh and one more exciting thing... i cut my hair while in tn. funny funny FUNNY story. ive been wanting a hair cut- so one night paula and i went up to a walk-in 11$ haircut place. we met TAMMY FAYE. yeah. she lived up on a mountain... but has been cutting hair for 22years. (thats how old i am) anyway. i was like whatever. i showed her some pics of what i wanted... and well other than being like 2inches shorter than i wanted... its perfect. and actually i love it this length. best part of the whole thing was when she was like... and hunny if you want to add some volume you can just TEEZE it. yes. she told me i could teeze my hair... then proceeded to teeze it. i guess thats what 11bucks will get you... BUT it does look great and i LOVE it!! :) sooooo much lighter and more fun... and more mature! (thank goodness. i was looking like i was 15!) anyway... here is the haircut!! :)

much love to you all and see you soon! :)
