It has been FOREVER!!!

Okay, I know that this post is long in coming.....I am sorry, Aimee!!!!!

We have a couple of crazy weeks here in Newlywed Land!!!


First of all, in October a bunch of friends got together to surprise Aimee and throw her a "Congrats, you are ENGAGED!!!!" Silly me, I didn't bring out my camera for the event. Take my word for it, we all had a great time! Aimee was totally surprised and I actually kept a secret for a very long time!!
A week or so I got a card in the mail from Aimee saying that my present was in the mail coming soon. I got it!!!! And was so excited that it contained this:

A new purse from my favorite new online store (thanks, Aimee)!!
The website is http://www.primopurses.com/ and I go there now on a regular basis!!! It is super cute and is big enough to hold all the things I need and YET lost things(like my phone). I guess I could be more organized, but who has time for that!!!

Jeremy is out in the woods, trying to get this:

It has not been successful yet. I will let you know if it is!!

Today was the craziest day at school. We had our Thanksgiving Lunch and we fed 88 people. 38 adults in small roooms, on small chairs, eating at small tables is quite a sight to see. Because of picture taking policies, I cant post any pictures of the children, but it was fun!!!

My brother Jacob is going to be taking our Christmas pictures on Thursday; hopefully we will get some good ones!!!

Alright, I am off to bed.....Have a great Thanksgiving!!! Travel Safely!!!

What happens when.....

....you let children color on coffee filters and then spray them with water?
Lovely, yes I know!!!!

Happy Birthday to Aimee Jo!!!

I just want to take this opportunity to wish a very special person "Happy Birthday"

Aimee Jo Hassafass Boobs McGee!!! (I think I got them all)

Last year at Aimee's Birthday Party

Aimee and I in 2006? at my house!!!

At a scrapbooking weekendAimee acting.....surprised??!!?!

Aimee has helped me through many situations in the last six years. People sometimes ask we if are sisters. I wish I was able to say "yes". She is the closest person to a sister I have ever had. It is hard to believe that our somophore year of college we lived 3 doors down in Grimm Hall and never really got to know each other. Then the next year, we had a class together and ended up sitting by each other. I remember on the day after her 21st birthday, she wasn't in class(anybody know why??). I told the professor that the night before was her 21st birthday and all he said was"Ahhhh"..... Then we ended up roommates the following year in Sheridan 2B. It was a great year and a half. Aimee has became my best friend.

After we graduated we went our seperate directions, her to Minnestoa, me to Wisconsin(the good state). We have probably talked 1,000,000 minutes on the phone and sent countless hours talking on the computer. Aimee has listened to me rabble, let me cry on her shoulder, and given me hours of advice with soooo many issues. I don't know what I am done without her. When I got engaged, it a no-brainer that she would stand next to me as I got married.

And now, as Aimee is planning for her special day, I am very excited. She is going to be a beautiful bride and a wonderful wife. So, Happy Birthday, Aimee!! I hope you have a wonderful day!!! Love, Cara

This Is NOT Good!!!!

Jeremy and I went to pick up his glasses from Shopko tonight. We were driving past KwikTrip(a gas station) and there was a sign that said

COMING SOON!!!!!

and then a picture of this:

This is NOT good!!!! Having a McDonald's that close is going to tempt me everyday to no end!!

Someone needs to give me strength to not go there!!

So...what should I do today?.........

I think I will post some pictures of recent events.....yah, I know....I am way behind on things. This is what happens when school starts and the craziness ends about June!!:)

Aimee trying on Wedding dresses!!!!!!:)

Aimee "helping" the mannequin get dress?!@?!?!?!
We had so much fun that day.....tears and laughter....everything that makes a day special!!!
Aimee hasn't chose a dress yet, but she has only gone to a few(?) places. All I know is what ever dress she chooses, she is going to be a gorgeous bride!!!

UGHHGHH.....

Let me start this post by saying I am not trying to complain, but it might start to sound like that!! Remember, I warned you!!

Today, I had a dentist appointment to have my wisdom tooth taken out. Yep, you read right: just tooth. I was warned by a parent at school that it was worse than child birth. At this rate, babies are going to be a breeze:) It wasn't that bad. I actually didn't know it was out; he started to raise the chair and asking me if I wanted to keep the tooth(heck no). Then I realized that he was all done. It took less than an hour!

So, I am lazying around on the couch and trying to sleep.

I started hearing sounds outside.

Then I remembered: This

There goes the sleep. The Blue Angels are in Eau Claire doing their air show on Saturday and Sunday. Practicing right now....so loud. I won't be sleeping during the practice. Good thing we are leaving on Sunday. We will have to find something to do on Saturday as well!!!!


See I told this might sound like complaining!!

WOW!!!!
