Blog Virginity! ;]

So I'm rather excited about this blogging business! =] I think it will be a great way for me to communicate with family and friends that I don't get to see very often...or that live too far away from me! It makes me happy!!

Anyway..I figured I would start from NOW, instead of going back in time. Less confusing, right?!

I'm enjoying my summer so so much. I have learned that I actually enjoy the outdoors and boating...and camping..hahaha who would have ever thought. Zach has definitely made me realize how much fun trying new things can be!! We (Zach, Me and Lilly..our puppy) have spent most of our time on the boat, outside, with our parents/families, or at our usual hang out...Britton Tavern, very rarely can you find us at home!! Love it! And for those of you who don't know Zach...you are sure missing out. We have been dating for almost a year now...and its been an interesting, yet amazing time! He is a wonderful guy and I can't wait for all of you to meet him! I'm so glad to finally have found another piece to my happiness!

we*B*tan is our family business that is doing nothing but blooming! And surprisingly enough we are having an exceptionally awesome summer. Being located in Geist, where Boats are just as popular as BMWs, the tanning business doesn't usually make most of its money during the summer months. But for some odd reason we are doing awesome right now! You would have to sit in here one day in December-May to realize how awesome it is that we have this business. We have gotten to know some AMAZING people...kids, students, men, women...and the stories we hear are just as awesome..ha! During our "season" we will have people hanging out the door and down the hall, and most everyone loves it! We have people come in just to talk to us and not even to tan, b/c we are that wonderful! ::smiles:: I love this place! I am only 23 years old and know how to "run" a business....not to bad if I do say so myself.

I am so so excited that I am getting closer and closer to heading back to school in August, for Special Education. [[and Yes, i am aware that you all think I do not have the patience for such a field, but trust me....it is perfect, and I love it!]] I met with an Academic Advisor yesterday and she told me I could come back ::wink::wink::!! I have been out of school for over 2 years, so it is going to be difficult getting back into the swing of things..b/c we all know how much I LOOOOVE school (obvi. I'm joking). I think I will just take probably 3 classes, if I take anymore than that, I will immediately hate it and burn myself out. So I can't wait...pray for me that I make it thru this time! I want it so so badly!


Grandma Mitchell just had a knee replacement and is doing awesome! She is already home, and is going to physical therapy 3 times a week. I talked to her last night and her spirits are high, and she is anxious for building that knee back up!


Bryces 5th Golf Outing is coming up! [[It is going to be pretty amazing, I think.]] We are doing a "2 day deal" this year. On Sunday, July 29th (get out your calendars, b/c that's my 24th Birthday too!!) we are having a big catered dinner, with Kelvin Sampson (IUs bball coach) as our speaker! We are having all kinds of amazing auction items and raffle prizes. (trips to Martha's Vineyard, several FL trips, a ride in an Indy Car, tickets to IU vs KY basketball game, and so many more awesome stuff) Then Monday Morning is the actual Tourney itself. Its going to be awesome, making it 2 days, is just better, I think! It keeps his name going just a little bit longer! =] I can't wait to see all of our family and friends !
