Am I dreaming or did I really just have spring break this past week? It went by like the blink of an eye. A few days before spring break my roommate for next year and I went apartment hunting and we narrowed it down between two. I decided that I really wanted my parents to come look, and see what they thought. I'm sooo excited about the one that we ended up picking! The downstairs has a living room, a half bath, and kitchen. The upstairs has the two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It's very cozy and cute :) As much as I'm going to enjoy living in an apartment, I'm really going to miss living with Leigh Ellen. I just know my freshman year wouldn't have been the same without her! Yes we do disagree but we're kind of like sisters, ya know? But I'm sure that she'll come over all the time (she betta ;)) I met my new roommate, Courtney, through my small group bible study leader, Emily. Emily is a great influence and sweet person, so I know that if she recommended Courtney then she would be great! Sure enough, Courtney is soo sweet! I know that we're going to get along just great, and I'm looking forward to living with her this upcoming year. Speaking of the upcoming year... school ends in 6 weeks! I can't believe it :(
On the Friday starting spring break, I drove home to Andalusia to see my family and friends. Saturday I went to Sarah Catherine Short's Wedding and it was wonderful!! She was beautiful as always and I loved her dress! I saw alot of familiar faces and got to hang out with Catherine Grace and Hunter :) After that I went out to eat with Callie, Shelby, and Haley just like the good old times. Then we watched 13 Going on 30. I miss them already. On Monday I spent the day with my Grandmother and my cousin Abby dropped off her daughter Kylie so I could get to see her! She is a mess! For 30 minutes we looked all around Grandmama's porch trying to find lizards.
On Monday I also went to a bible study called "Sistachicks" at FBC of Andalusia. Mrs. Stroud taught us how to arrange flowers! We were definitely learning from the best.
On Tuesday, I went to visit my Meme! We went out to eat and then from then on out we looked at old pictures :) I really enjoyed getting to spend some time with her. Hope you enjoy looking at a blast from the past!

On Tuesday, Haley and I went walking around Open Pond. I wish we could make that a regular thing!! Seeing my friends makes me realize how much I've missed them. Later in the day I went to zumba with my mom and Holly came as well! Let me tell y'all something- My mom knows how to get down ;) and so does Holly! (I like to make sure she stays embarrassed :))
On Wednesday around noon, I let Roxy outside and started packing up my things so that I could go to the beach with Leigh Ellen. About 30 minutes later I realized I had forgotten to let Roxy back in, so I shouted for her. I didn't see her anywhere. I knew that something wasn't right so I hopped in my car and drove just a little way until I saw Roxy laying in the middle of the gravel road. I stuck my head out the window and yelled, "Roxy!" but she lifted her head up and just layed there. This is how I knew that something was wrong. Roxy never sits still.. she is always hyper and bouncy and never calm. I went to her and picked her up... she was shaking. I loaded her into her pet carrier and off to the Vet's office we went. She couldn't even walk. The Vet's office couldn't quite tell what had gotten a hold of her. They think it was a snake. My parents went and got her that afternoon and brought her back home... whenever I got there her neck was swollen up and she still wouldn't move. We finally got her to drink and eat by holding water and food in the palm of our hands. It was hard to watch her like that. We ended up taking her to the vet's office again... but finally she is getting better. They had to shave around her neck and it looks like she swallowed a golf ball. I'm just glad that she's gonna be okay... it will take her a little while to get back to her old self! This is what Roxy normally looks like in case you haven't seen her before!
Leigh Ellen and I stayed at the beach until yesterday. It was so much fun! We stayed with her Meme and Daddy Toby... they're really nice people. I like the beach and all but I don't think my skin has quite warmed up to the sun yet. My back hasn't seen the sun light for a while so I think I have a little sun poisoning and it won't stop itching even though I put 50 spf on!!! By the way, I've been creeping on prom pictures and everyone looked great! I hope y'all had fun :)
