gyro

Today I got to eat in the jackson crossing mall- at that coney island place! :) I have always wondered what it would be like to eat there and today Jennie and I got to!!

I am enjoying a lazy (although, 1/2 of it was spent shopping) Saturday. I love chilling. It is a beautiful thing!!

Well, that is all! BORING eh? :) yes i know...what can I say?

seriously.....stick the crab leg up my nose?

Being in love is so ridiculous sometimes! :) Look at him thinking it is funny to stick the crab leg up my nose...of course, I was all for it since we were taking a picture...but now that I look at them...it is just silly to me...what love does to a girl! :)

too much coffee

I have had too much coffee and couldnt nap at lunch like normal...and this is a day where I feel in a fog...hope I am not fighting off a cold or something. ARGH. I still havent scanned the cute 'photo booth' pictures of Jamos and I- but maybe tonight! :)

I am getting in the Christmas spririt...and it isnt even thanksgiving yet!!!

a full saturday!

Jamos and I had a very full saturday! Off to Ann Arbor (like I posted earlier) and we went straight to Treasure Mart- which is in the old part of Ann Arbor- put we still drove thru U of M- it was crazy! Little did we know, a game was starting- the jets flew over us, people were partying in the streets and there we were like little old people trying to find treasure mart! We finally found it and neither of us got anything. They had loads of antiques, furniture, things like that, but the prices werent THAT good- and well, the stuff I could afford, was JUNK...and we all know I have enough of that without the help of treasure mart. :) After that, we got in the car in search of this vintage clothing store, on State Street in downtown AA. We FINALLY found a place to park and wandered around the cute downtown...went to this vintage store that was like, 3 stories up in this TINY little place...DUH- we are NOT vintage...so, that was a worthless trip...but, on to Urban Outfitters, where we found some cool stuff- but nothing worth spending money on...but...we did go across the street to a VERY good sandwhich shop, that I cant remember the name of...but, we split an Italian Sandwich (SO GOOD!!) and an ice cream sandwich made from these HUGE cookies! It was a good date w/ my man, even though we had to hurry because the meter was going to run out on the parking spot! :) We had fun...then, off to E. Stadium Blvd to find 'klose kloset' or something like that...thinking it would be amazingly good consingment...well, we get there...after much turning around and...well....lets just say...OLD WOMAN clothes ALL OVER! and, it was EXPENSE, like 90 bucks for stuff. So...we turned around and went to the mall! :) Gotta love Briarwood mall. Jamos and I were in the shopping mood- and he found brown shoes at Aldo, which were on SALE and look WAY good on him...and we got our picture taken in the photo booth (I love those!) and I will post the picture on here after I scan it...and then, we went to basically EVERY store in the mall and shopped a lot- I was wearing my new, tall, leather boots in black ( I got them in brown too) and after not wearing heels...or boots for a very long time- my feet were killing me!!!! I did find a great outfit at H&M- to wear on thanksgiving- it is super cute--- and some neat hair ties with flowers on the ends...yada yada...
Then, off to Joe's Crab Shake for some CRAB LEGS and coconut shrimp!!! YUMMMMMMMMY!!!! We had a blast- it was both our FIRST Crabbing experience- I think Jamos enjoyed the process more than I did...but, we had a blast (as you can see from the pictures) and well...ate it all- licking the platter clean- only to RACE the 40 some miles back towards Jackson to make it in time for the "BowFire" concert. It was AWESOME. We made it just in the nick of time- Jamos was getting pretty anxious as he was driving- afraid we would miss it- but, i was calm- because, well, I was with him and that is all that matters to me! :) So, we made it there by the skin of our teeth- and enjoyed a really neat show! I would have bought a CD- but they were 20 bucks! Basically, it was a mix of Violins...upbeat celtic kinda toons mixed with some 'riverdance' type moves. Amazing. I dont know how to explain it- but it was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! We had great seats- close but not too close- and right on the end! very good! :) We lucked out! After the concert- we made BREAD IN THE BREAD MACHINE!!!!! It is VERY good and very easy!! I love it!! :) Tried to watch Mission Impossible 3- but I was WAY tired and kept falling asleep on the couch...

This morning- went to church at Westwinds- got there late since they changed service times....got an ok seat- missed worship which jamos and I were sad about- but, whatever! We can sing praises all the time...:) had good coffee...and then.....afterwards...went back towards town, to get GAS at SAMS, go to Target, saw puggle puppies at the pet store- found some GREAT Christmas gifts at TJMaxx....it was fun- then, we went back to SAMS to get food for his parents (we shop for them! :) ) and ate SO MANY SAMPLES!!! It was ridiculous! I have never seen so many samples...we had ...ham steak... 2 whole cookies, an egg roll, 2 chicken fingers, cheesecake, cream puff, pig in a blanket, a power bar (NASTY), Loe Mein and I am sure more that I can't think of right now...ridiculous...and that was our lunch! :)

Fun times..as always being with my man...and enjoying life with him! I love it and I love being in love! Except, I hate it when Sundays come and he has to go home :( It is totally not fair!!!!

auction

Going once...going twice...SOLD! :) Last night was the annual Jackson Christian Auction....and it was SO FUN!!! Basically, people donate some amazing things and then, we all like fools bid on them....a 10.00 gift certificate goes for like, $50. And so on and so forth. It is a blast. I was a lucky girl because my boyfriend, Mr. Jamos himself left work early, battled the traffic and bad directions from his girlfriend to attend with her and for that I am thankful! :) We had fun, I bid on some pretty random stuff...lucky for me, I only ended up with a 'never used' bread maker and tickets for tonights BowFire Concert....Bowfire you might ask?? Yes, well, it is these people who play the violin in amazing settings and just very entertaining and I am SO excited that Jamos and I get to go!!

We had a good meal....they actually brought this pig in....that had been cooking over the fire- it was slightly DISCUSTING as it walked right by my chair on a large platter- had an apple in its mouth and grapes for eyes....I still ate the salty pork, turkey, cheesy potatoes, little veggies that looked like mini pumpkins and things. To complete the 3 cups of coffee I drank- we had some apple pie- not as good as MY apple pie, but it served its purpose! :)

I cant remember what we bid on for the 'live' auction- but if you start out early- you can at least raise your paddle and feel cool! :) My boss and his wife got a weeks stay at Shanty Creek! That is pretty cool if you ask me! :)

Now, as we get ready for the day- we are heading East to Ann Arbor to see what we may see in that area- it shall be great! I wanted to go to Franenmuth this weekend, BUT...now that I got these concert tickets...we can't go too far! :) Plus, there are movies to watch...and fun times to be had!
