Days 5 & 6

Well, I didn't get a chance to post last night so it's a two-for-one tonight. Day 5 was a pretty good day, we had breakfast and went to the convention center. The show went ok, and we started tearing down at 5pm. It only took two hours to tear everything down. It went very well. We just chilled at the convention center waiting for dan to finish loading the truck. After he finished with that we went to panda express and got food, then we went back to the hotel. I ate my food, took a shower and played diner dash, lol my new computer game. It's addicting lol. I was gong to post last night but I fell asleep, then Joe called and I knocked out again. Day 6 was pretty much a blur for me. It was wonderful though. I caught up on all my sleep. We left around 9 or so. I fell asleep pretty much right away. We had a few bathroom stops and we stoppe once to eat. We drove from Georgia through Alabama, Mississippi, Tennesse, and finally made it to Arkansas. We were supposed to go to the Emerson's church tonight but since we had sort of a late start and the weather wasn't cooperating it took us a little longer than planned to get here. But we finally made it, checked in to our hotel and met the Emerson's, the Kennedy's and some youth from another church at Ruby Tuesdays. It was interesting. Tomorrow we are going shopping, YAY. I can't wait. Well it's almost midnight here so I better get some sleep. More to come later! More pictures to come soon.

Day 4

So, this week seems to be going by fast, the only downfall is that I can never remember what day it is. I'm getting all mixed up. Well, anyways, today was a pretty good day. I woke up at 6:40 got ready, and went to the hotel breakfast again with my parents. It was pretty good today. My potatos were soft this time. We got the convention center around 8 or so. We had a few last minute things to get ready so we worked on getting it done til the show floor opened. It was a pretty good day there were lots of women there. It was so cold in the building though. Dan and I went for a starbucks run. I was so tired I knocked out in the car. We got our coffee and went back to the convention center. That was about 2 so we only had 4 more hours left to work. It went by pretty fast. The only weird thing about today is one of the Expo guys kept circling our booth and staring. So I have a stalker lol. Ima try to get a pic of him tomorrow so everyone can see. Well, I bought alot of scrapbook stuff today, which is funny since I like never scrapbook. lol I got some really cute stuff tho. But anyways we left at 6 to go to dinner with another couple from the show. We went to some mexican buffet only to find they were closed, so we went to a seafood buffet and they were super expensive, so we ended up at cracker barrel. Oh my! It was an experience. It took them forever to seat us, our waitress came fairly quickly to take our orders. But it took 20 minutes for her to bring out our drinks, and or food came 2 minutes later, the problem was we hadnt even gotten our salads yet. And the food, UGH, of the food. My mashed potatos and mac and cheese were sitting up out so long they looked fake. They were all hard n gross. So needless to say the manager came out, we got two free meals, and thats that. lol We came back to the hotel, I took a shower and now I am on here. Again. So hope you enjoy the pics and the updates. It's keeping me entertained. Miss you all.

Day 3

Alrighty, another day almost over. So far the trip is going by fast. Today was a good day, rather busy. I went to sleep about 2 this morning. I'm still not use to this time change. But anyways, I got up about 7:30 got dressed n went with my parents and Scooter downstairs to the breakfast buffet thing they offer at the hotel. It was ok except my potatos were hard as rocks, and the eggs were really runny, but other than that the bagel and chocolate milk was good. lol After breakfast we went to the convention center and started our set up. It was grueling. lol If that's even a word haha. We started setting up at 9 this morning and finished abour 4 this afternoon. I forgot how long and how much work it was to get everything organized and set up. But we got through it thank God. After we finished we went to Applebees for dinner, which totally made me miss home like ALOT. That's like where we go after church on Sundays all the time. :( I miss you guys! Anyways, after dinner we dropped Dan off at the hotel, and me, mom, and scooter went n did some shopping. We went to Avenue so mom could pay her bill, we went to some place called Rigged, it's like a Ross or DDs Discount. After that we went to Barnes and Noble and spent like forever there. I bought a book for one of my sisters, a chicken soup book, and a spanish english dictionary thing. lol I gotta learn spanish if Ima be visiting the Sernas again. lol Then after that we went to Super Walmart, again. I got some more books, and mom n scooter had to get some stuff. And now I am sitting in my room at the hotel writing this blog and reading a book. Oh yes, I am that talented. lol Well I miss all you people! More to come tomorrow. :)

Day 2

So today is Dat 2 of my 27 day trip. I think it's 27 anyways lol. Today was a much better day than yesterday. I went to sleep bout 4 this morning, or 1 California time. Time change is so hard to get used to. Lucky for me mom let my sleep in til 10. We went to Cracker Barrel again and my pancakes we so tough and my hasbrowns were super greasy. Not a very good breakfast. But anyways after we ate me n mom went to Super Walmart n went shopping. I got a cute new sweater! After we spent a couple hours at wal mart we went to the airport to pick scooter up. Ugh that airport was so packed and people would stop in the middle of the road and pick up their people. No that we did that or anything...heehee. It was so crazy there. But anyways after the airport we went to Sams Club. Right when we got there a huge storm came through and the lights in Sams Club started flickering. They didn't go off though. Thank God. So we got done there n came back to the hotel and picked Dan up n went to Olive Garden for dinner. It was so good! Then we came back to the hotel, I took a shower, then helped price all the product that came in. After the pricing was done I straightened my hair with my new straightener which took FOREVER, or so it seemes. But now that I am done I am just chilling in my room once again updating my blog. There really isn't much else to do except read or play games. So I chose blogging. Here are some pics I took while driving around Atlanta today.

Well I made it

I made it to Georgia, finally. So I got up around 3:45 or so and got dressed and ready to go. We left for the airport around 4 and got there bout 4:30. We checked in and went through the metal detectors. So I put my bags on the belt and put my shoes in one of those box/tub things. So I went through with no problems, but when I went to get my sandals from the belt only one was there. The lady who put my stuff through the screening thing she took my sandals out of the tub and one got stuck in the xray thing. So I'm standing there with one sandal looking retarded. I had to ask one of the security people to get my sandal out of the machine. Pretty interestting. lol I was stuck between conveyer belts. Someone needs to tell that lady tha tyou can't put thin flip flops through there unless they're in a tub. But that was just the beginning of the morning. We went to our gate only to find out that our flight was canceled. There was something wrong with the plane. So we had to get totally new flights. But our flight didn't leave til three hours after our original flight was supposed to leave. I was so tired, so I layed on the floor in the airport and went to sleep. The first flight went by fairly quickly. We landed with no problems, except the plane was rattling so bad when we landed I thought it was gonna fall apart. So we get to our gate to find out that they changed it on us. So we had to go to yet another gate only to find out that our flight is delayed by like an hour or two. So more time spent chilling in the airport, but at least this time i had cinabon. So our plane finally gets there and we board. Well to make a long story short we had rude flight attendants, and there were two babies on our row, which happened to be twins. And the flight attendents would only let one sit with their mom at a time n the other was with her sister. So they were constantly crying n being pains. Not a good flight. Thank God for ipods. But we made it, got out luggage n fought our way out of the airport. We ate at Cracker Barrel, got the big rig, and came to our hotel. So now I am just waiting for Joe to call n chilling in my room. So that was my day. More to come during this trip!!! Miss you all!

Oh my dearest Erica,family I am going to miss you so much when you leave. You have done so much for me these last few months. You have been here for me and befriended me. You are so wonderful! You are an awesome person and I don't know what I'm going to do without you. :( Who will wake me up every morning? Who will go on random starbucks runs with me? Who will I go out to eat with now? Oh Erica, I am going to miss you so much. You have been a tremendous blessing to me. You have been a big influence in my life. Your example has helped me to become more involved in church. Thank you so much Erica! I am going to miss you so much! You better come stay with me when you visit! I LOVE YOU ERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Honeybun....lol

Anyone that knows me knows of my best friend Brittany. She is so beautiful, fun and outgoing. She is one of the craziest people I know..... in a good way. :) There is never a dull moment with her around. We always have a blast no matter what we are doing. Whether we are running around at the beach or exploring random volcanos. lol *which we did both. Brit is always there for me no matter what. One thing that I really love about her is her random sense of humor. We have so many inside jokes. The one that really makes us laugh is "Doesn't that itch?" It's better not to ask cuz it's just one of those "you had to be there things." She is the best. I am her Buttercup and she is my Honeybun. And no one can ever change that! I love you Brit!
