halloween costumes

meg and i had decided early on that we wanted to do something that went together. bein roommates and all we thought it would be fitting to do some type of dynamic duo.

our first idea was dinosaurs. not that dinos are a type of dynamic duo. i just have a big fascination with dinosaurs. and realized that i would really like to own a dinosaur costume. (sadly i was not able to find one...someday)

since we couldnt find dinosaur costumes...we had to brainstorm and come up with a new plan.

and we are pretty confident that we have come up with a very funny costume idea...

 

yes thats right. we have decided to be hannah montana and miley cyrus. (i am hannah..with my singing talent and all) and meg is miley. basically we are the best of both worlds.

so my little ones are going to be here any moment to spend some much needed quality time with "nina". it has been over a month i think since i have seen them and i miss them so very much. i am looking forward to seein how much they have grown :-) and get lots of hugs and kisses from ty, keirra, and kaydin...

roommates

i have had several roommates in my life. and for the most part all have been a pleasant experience. 

     my sister and i were roommates til i moved to college. she is 10 years younger than me and so that was fun to be able to spend that time sharing a room. i moved to college and had some pretty interesting roommates my first year. amy was my roommate sophomore year. we had so much fun that year! i would even go on to say that we were notoriously known to live on the "naked wing" 2B holla!!! my summers were spent at camp with many roommates... i have so many memories with canifax and bri and ally that first summer...and cooper and amanda.. there are not even words to describe that craziness!! love those girls. after college spent some time livin on the parents couch then moved into my grandparents house...kate was my first official post-college roommate...she is pretty awesome...we were soon joined by megan...and our home became the gypsy den. this is a picture of the gypsy den...

we moved out of the gypsy den and our dear kate got married (lucky her) and so know it is just megan and i (with our flamingo Duff-after ace of cakes) livin in our apartment. its ghetto and messy and filled with toys. but we love it. we have two bedrooms but prefer to sleep in the same one.. we dont shower on saturdays (its a rule in our house) or do laundry that often. we eat lots of hamburger helper/pasta (with our free hamburger meat from my mom) we share clothes and like to take naps on our couch with our comfy blankets. its pretty awesome. you should be jealous.

i have been blessed with so many wonderful roommates who have played such an important role in my life...and one day i will get to have another roommate and i know that it will be as much of a blessing as all the others. ;-)
