Weekend Update...

This weekend I spent Saturday with friends. Heather and I met for lunch where we had amazing Caesar salads!!

Then we went to do some shopping. I found this glam sequin dress but I wasn't willing to pay the $100 for it. Was that a mistake?

Heather found a lot of things she liked. We probably spent 20 minutes trying to decide what sweater she should get.
Then we headed to Goodwill. I was hoping to find as many treasures as I did last time but I came away empty handed. I did find out that our Goodwill has a pretty decent supply of used books and a lot of them are in good condition.

Heather and I jammed to Sweet Thing the whole car ride home. I have a video to prove it (which I will post later.)

Then we headed to a friend's birthday party in downtown Annapolis. It was really fun. After the party I helped Suzanne take our friend Betty home. It wasn't exactly smooth sailing seeing as we got lost in Bowie for about 10 minutes. Suzanne and I ended the night with soft serve Ice Creams from Micky D's. It was a pretty wonderful ending to an incredibly busy and fun day.

Peace and Love,

Baby, Won't You Let It Go...

Here's a little Sweet Thing to brighten your day:

Peace and Love,

UGH!!!!

I am going on the record and saying that I hate Itunes!! I mean just because I live in the US why can't I buy music from Canada?!

Sweet Thing's Album came out today.

Of course it was only available in Canada.

Itunes won't let you use a US credit card on Itunes CA.

I wouldn't have been so determined to buy it from Itunes except that if you buy it from them you get all kinds of behind the scenes features and an extra song!

I went out and bought an international visa card thinking that of course it would work...it DIDN'T.

My mom called the card place and they were of no help.

And Itunes tech service wasn't open! Can you believe that?! They close at 5. I wish they could feel my wrath.

I mean what if someone had a serious apple issue late at night!!

So after an hour and a half of failed attempts I realized that I would rather just have the cd without the extras then not have it at all.

Now I will say that I LOVE amazon.

Amazon Canada lets me order from them. Take that Itunes.

So now I am out twenty bucks and the cd will arrive on the 30th at the earliest but at least I got it.

I know it will be worth it.

Well, I hope so at least.

Peace and Love,

Em

Sunday Photos and Sweet Thing...

Alyssa and I went to the park yesterday and had ourselves a little photoshoot. I think the pictures came out great!!

And in other news, one of my favorite bands, Sweet Thing, has their first album coming out this summer. They are on a mini tour now and stopped by a radio station to play a couple songs. This one is called "Lazy Susan" and I LOVE it!! Check it out :)

Peace and Love,

What More Can I Say...

...other than I love him.

Now I Can Get a Tattoo Without Parental Consent...

Today was my 18th Birthday and this is what I woke up to:

What more could a girl ask for?

Suzannie took my sister and I out to lunch to celebrate! How lovely! We went to our usual dive, The Metro Diner, and had such a fun time.
We ran into Target after and look at who I ran into: Ahhh....Mr. White.........

We spent half of the day with Suzannie and then we took off with the family to downtown Baltimore for dinner. We ate at the Hard Rock Cafe.


And don't forget that I participated in the one day without shoes today, and although it might be gross this is what my feet looked like at the end of the day:Today at lunch a little girl and her mom sat across from us outside. The little girl had taken off her shoes and the waiter came up to her and said "Hey, is everything alright? Why are your shoes off?" To which her mother replied "She saw that young lady (me) with her shoes off and she wanted to take hers off too." See you can make a difference, one small little step at a time. It was painful going without shoes at times but it was worth it to me.

Anyway. once we got home it was time for cake!
I ended the night with watching my Orioles beat the Rays! LET'S GO O'S!!!Oh, and this guy(Luke Scott) just made it so much better :)

I'll be sure to do a post later about what I got and all that good stuff. For now I just want to thank everyone who celebrated with me today! I had a lot of fun! And thanks also to everyone for the wishes and calls! Everyone was so sweet and it meant a lot to me! All my love.

Love,
Em

Easter Sunday...

Today was such a beautiful day. The first thing I thought about when I woke up was that today Christ arose from the grave and conquered death. It is such a wonderful feeling to wake up to.
Right when we woke up it was time for our Easter baskets.

I loved everything I got! My basket included: The Blind Side, Lucky Brand earrings, a purple flower sweater with diamond buttons, some underwear (polka dotted of course), a candle votive, and some really cute hair pins! Oh, and their was a lot of chocolate of course!!!Then it was time to dye eggs!!

And then it was time to eat the delicious meal that my mom made for us!! The table was set so pretty!
Following our amazing dinner I did one of my favorite things...made cupcakes!
I took a lot of pictures of them but hey, I was pretty proud of 'em.
Bands I listened to while baking: Rilo Kiley and Sweet Thing.

I hope everyone had a very blessed Easter.

Love,
Em
