Wonderful Weekend Recap!

This past weekend Clayton and I had our first official wedding party.  His aunts and cousins threw us a dinner party at Duplin Winery! We headed to Chapel Hill on Friday and had a great night out and about and then headed east on Saturday.  We went to the music at the winery first, and then, after freshening up, to the party. 

It was an amazing time!  All most all of our college friends made the trip from all over to celebrate with us. Most of my MA girls came to celebrate too! Stacie even came from Puerto Rico!!! (Well, she was in Va. for something, but still, she drove 5 hours to celebrate with us!) Not to mention all of our families were there too! I couldn't have been happier on Saturday. I really don't think I stopped smiling the whole night.  We ate dinner, watched some adorable pics of me and Clayton growing up, drank some (ok, a lot!) of wine, and then danced the night away. Cupid Shuffle, Soulja Boy, etc! After the wine ran low and the party slowed down, we headed over to the Mad Boar (aka the Pissed Off Pig) for the "after party"!  It was a great, fun night with almost everyone I could have wanted there! If the fun-ness of the party is any indication, I can not wait for the wedding! It's gonna be a blast!!!

Long time no post...

So, it has been a busy few weeks and I haven't been compelled to share much of anything, but today when i came home from school I missed Kenz and Ash being home for spring break, and the beautiful weather we had last Monday. (A day where I may or may not have played half-day hooky and laid out on the porch...)  This past weekend was so fun and full of people that it makes going back to school and coming home to an almost empty house a little depressing.  Not to mention it has been raining for what seems like days.  

Here are a couple pictures of my lovely wonderful weekend with friends and family.

Here is the whole family (yes, Todd is family) about to go celebrate the ACC tourney at CCCC.

Here is C and me after a lovely (and hot) BBQ meal and some basketball!

C and Dad grilling the yummy steaks!

Lots of F and F...

Well, I am back home after a great weekend away! I had a good time skiing and realaxing and hanging out and having an extra day off of school. As C's cousin would say, we had plenty of "F and F" (aka friends and fellowship) and family togetherness time. We made great time up to WV with out any problems! One minor schirmish with the lift ticket lady was the only unfortunate event of the weekend. C and I tackled the Western Territory and the Double Black Diamond with no problems! The snow rolled in on Saturday night and continued to the morning and followed us most of the way home. Maybe we can finally get a snow day or 2 hr. delay!

On becoming a Redneck...

So, I have been sorting through recent pictures to order from Snapfish and I came to a scary realization... some external force is trying to turn me into a redneck.

First of all, for my 24th birthday, two of my friends decided that it would be fun to have a "Camo" themed party. Complete with a turkey target and a bulls eye cake.
It was a lot of fun. I even went out to eat in my good ol' camo shirt.
But it gets worse.

A few weekends ago me and C went down to CH to our buddy Zims house. For the Daytona 500. Yep, an actual NASCAR race. Now, granted, Zims is not a NASCAR guy. He is a Death Metal/tattoos guy. It was more or less just an excuse to hang out and drink beer on a Sunday.

But really, who wants to watch a bunch of people drive around making lots of left turns for hours and hours, even with a keg. Nonetheless, I sat there on the couch watching Jimmie Johnson and Greg Biffle and Matt Kenseth and 30+ other dudes race around in circles. And I was interested. C even accused me of liking it. The hard thing to admit is, I kinda did. I mean, I'm not gonna plop down with a Bud Light every Sunday to watch it, but if for some reason it is on, I'm not gonna complain. Much. (Hey, a girls gotta maintain her image!)

C, Me, and Skulls @ the party!

Go Kasey Kahne!
