TGIF♥

I was SO ready for this weekend as soon as my alarm went off this morning. Usually it takes me awhile to get up, but I sprung right out of bed, ready to take on this day!


I had class in the morning. History and Bio. Two of the classes I HATED in highschool and now I'm starting to love. My History Professor is amazing. He's a total rocker(which I love) and puts a fresh spin on old facts. I could listen to him for hours. Bio is slowly starting to grow on me. Maybe it's because everything is finally starting to click, and my professor relates everything to our every day lives. I am even excited for the exam on Monday!

Tonight is GIRLS night. Oooh how I love my girls nights! We are going  to go eat at a lil Mexican restauraunt and then come back to my apartment and make margaritas. Yuuummy! Mexican food and the culture is pretty much a huge part of my life. The town I grew up in is predominatley Hispanic, and on every corner there is a Mexican restaurant to eat at. We are thirty minutes from the Mexican border so my hubby's family would always take us to eat at some authentic mexican restaurants!

We love our Cheladas!

Us and my Brother/Sister in law!

Us and his cousin Guero!

mmm shrimp cocktail!

Even though this weekend will be full of fun, I can't wait to get it over with so that I can get my man back! ahh six more days and I will see my hubby! I got to talk to him last night and he told me a funny story about his day....He was doing land navigation out in the wilderness somewhere and came upon "marshy" terrain. What he didn't realize was that he was walking into a stream..and before he knew it he was waist deep in water. The poor thing had to tread out of the water and freeze the rest of the time. And to make it even worse, it was snowing yesterday morning. I felt super bad for my hubby but couldn't help but laugh. Things like that never happen to him..NEVER! And he isn't the biggest fan of large bodies of water so I just thought it was hysterical....after I made sure he was okay of course. Anyways, don't tell him I told you this:)

I want it Wednesday!

I love,love, looooove this dress from Victoria's Secret!

The pattern is so cute, in fact I have a bandeau bikini in this pattern, or something similar!

I am going to convince the hubby to buy me this summer dress..since our taxes diid just come in:)

He can never resist my cute puppy face!

Today was a great day! 

Yesterday I wasn't feeling to swell so I relaxed and slept most of the evening.

I only had a short time at school today so that was great..

I went to the gym and am now stuck in the middle of a ton of homework..

the sound of rain does sound nice though..

although it's supposed to snow and I do not want it to snow again.

uggh!

What a Monday..

I hate Monday's but love how today went by sooo fast! I had class till noon..then I was able to come home, catch up on some homework, and be lazy! I even took a nap! I never take naps! After napping my afternoon away I woke up extremely energized and headed to the gym. I am on a role with this gym thing..mission "get fit" before hubby comes home! I've gone everyday since he's been gone and I love it now! I used to dread going to work out..and my hubby would always beg me so he'd have company. Now he'll be so proud that his wifey is willing to work up a sweat!

After the gym I had a volleyball scrimage! I am playing on a league for all wifes/ dependents of the military. My team met up with three other teams and had a blast playing some quick pick up games. The team I'm on gets along so well, and we're constantly laughing and joking around. Not everyone has played before so we just don't take it to seriously. Plus it's just an Army league, we aren't going to nationals or anything! So you think the other teams would be having fun too..right? NO! they were yelling at one another when a ball was dropped, rolling eyes, and one of the girls even sat out because she was so upset. It totally ruins the fun of the game when you start to get attitudes like that! That is why I'm so happy my team is full of fun loving girls who just want to have fun.

Well anyways, I got to talk to my hubby tonight..we're almost one week down..yet it seems like months..oh well I have lots to keep me busy this week! Hope you all had a happy Monday!

Midnight cravings..

I always end up with cravings for chocolate during the night..

So what does that lead to???

A SONIC BLAST!

mmmm..my favorite.

And luckily I had a wonderful friend who wanted to come a long and we sat in our car,ate, and chatted it up!

a nice way to end the night.

Some of you were asking how Claying around went..

It was soooo much fun!

Three of us didn't finish putting all our coats of paint on,

so we'll have to go back again!

but until then, this is what my vase looks like...

sorry for the horrible picture,

it says believe around the top portion..

the colors won't look anything like this once it has been glazed and fired..

I'm really excited to add more details to it and see the end results!

The shop we were at was very cute, and there were so many creative designs hanging around.

The ladys that worked there were helpful and really nice.

It was a great atmosphere and a great girls day out!

I will post a picture of my finished vase soon!

I love mornings like these...

I woke up early and made my favorite...beef stew! I make it in the crock pot so the whole house just smells amazing! mmm I can't wait to eat it! Then I hit up the gym for a nice morning workout. I've been going to the gym everyday this week and I feel so much more energized, and with each time I go I find I can last longer on the treadmill, or do more reps! After the gym I came home and made chocolate chip pancakes! Yuuuummy! Then, being the nice doggy mommy that I am, I took Cali Jean to the dog park..the joys of parenthood! I love watching her run around with other dogs, she's such a goofball and cracks me up the whole time. All of this before 12.p.m! Loves it!


I have a girls day planned today. We are going to this place called Just Claying Around. We can pick pottery and paint it, then they fire it for free so the paint will stay. I've never been to a pottery place before, so I'm very excited. I love artsy stuff but am not the most creative person. It'll be nice to hang out with the girls and hopefully make some fun things to put around the house!

Hope you all have a great weekend.

xoxo,
Mrs. Cass
