Traveling Back Home for the Weekend

-

    This past weekend, I got to travel back home to see my family and my dog, Koby! After the craziness that happen last week with the storm. The roads were clear enough for me to travel back home. When I got back, right when I walked through our entrance door my dog was so excited to see me that he gave me kisses when I walked through the door. I am not going to lie I was more excited to see my dog than my family. But my weekend got even better! On Saturday, my mom told me that we would be heading out to my aunt's house to have a little get-together with our family since my cousin and I were coming home. That night, we went to their house and saw my family, but we brought an ice cream cake to share with everyone since I didn't have a cake on my birthday. At her house, I got to talk with my cousin and my family, and tell them how I am doing at ONU which was nice to talk about since a lot of things have happened since I have been away. We had baked spaghetti and garlic bread to eat that night and it was nice to have a homecooked meal again after eating McIntosh food for 4 weeks. Later in the evening, we got out the ice cream cake and my mom asked me if I wanted "Happy Birthday" to be sung to me and I said "no," because I didn't see a point since my birthday passed. But one of my aunts insisted that they sing "Happy Birthday" to me since their youngest daughter loved singing it but let me tell you she didn't sing "Happy Birthday" to me at all, she just stood there and stared at me smiling. That night is one that I will remember! Overall, I had a great time being back home for the weekend and I can't wait to go back when it's a little warmer!

    That's awesome you were able to go home for the weekend and see your family and your dog! I too actually went home Sunday for the afternoon and got to hang out with my family and my pets (my cat Gregory and golden retriever Stella) for a little bit. Although it wasn't a whole weekend like yours, it was a nice little break away from school and quality time with my family.

    I am so glad that you got to go home for the weekend! It is always a blessing to be around family, friends, and great food. Trust me, I beg my mom to bring me leftover dinner for after every home game. My family does ice cream cakes for birthdays too! We are just not huge cake fans so my mom makes sure to go to Dairy Queen to pick one up so we can celebrate. My dad's 50th birthday is over spring break so I'm sure we will have a big celebration.

    Your dog is so cute. I cannot wait to go back home and see my family and my pets. I love celebrating birthday's at anytime so I would have indulged in the Ice Cream cake.

    I'm so jealous you got to see your dogs. It feels like its been 2 years since I have been able to hold my tiny dogos. And I feel the same way about how seeing your dog is better than seeing your parents.

    I took my dog home this weekend so I miss him like crazy! With my crazy theatre schedule, it is so much better that he can spend the next few weeks with my parents and his brother. It never gets easier to leave him, so I am trying everything I can to distract myself. It's awesome you got to see all your family! Ice cream cake is the best!!

    Home cooked meals with family, and dogs, always taste that much better! It's been a while since I've been able to head home for a weekend, but I could really go for a home cooked meal right about now!

Easter Weekend!

     Hey, guys welcome back to my blog! I hope everyone had a good Easter this past weekend because I did! Let me tell you what I did this Easter weekend! Friday, I got to see my aunt, uncle and little cousin. They are from Maryland and they just bought a camper so they brought it to Ohio with them so they could go camping and for my family and I to check it out which was pretty nice! Later in the day, we went on an easter egg hunt for my nephew and my cousin. I didn't know that it was the first Easter egg hunt that my town put on which was a great turnout but was pretty crazy when the kids went to get the eggs. I am going to tell you it was like the "Hunger Games." Saturday, my family and I colored goose eggs, duck eggs and chicken eggs for Easter this year which was pretty interesting. We even colored them differently this year by using shaving cream and food coloring, the eggs turn out pretty well! Sunday, we woke up pretty early to find our Easter baskets and do an Ea

      A couple weeks ago I went to Bellefontaine with my friends. We usually try to plan things every weekend to keep us busy but this time we decided to go to Bellefontaine again! This time on this trip we had a couple of things planned but not a ton so the first thing we got was some hot chocolate because it was a cold day then we went shopping. We looked at antique shops and little small business shops. All the shops that we went to were very cute and we had a lot of fun! I got a shirt at an antique shop so did my friends too! A couple hours later, we went to my friend Maddie's house to have dinner. For dinner, we had chicken alfredo with garlic bread and my friends and I ate all the garlic bread! Later that night, we planned on going to Maddie's sister's play which was a musical called "Into the Woods." The play was amazing with the actors, actresses, and the decorations too! After the play, Maddie's sister was so excited and happy to see us and we were ha

ONU Life Week 1

A week ago, I came back early for track, but I can tell you it was weird but nice to be back on campus before everyone else came back to campus. Then a week later class started, my first day back for the second semester at Ohio Northern University was kind of overwhelming from a month break to rolling into the next semester. I have to say my professors wasted no time to start their classes. Right off the back, they had me doing assignments that were literally due next week! But that is not even the most overwhelming thing that happen that week. What made my week was not being able to buy my books. You might say buying your books for class should be easy, well your wrong. I tried buying my books probably three times online and it failed because the server wasn't working so I had to walk to the ONU Bookstore to see if they could help me. But you probably think "Oh she went in and they got it fixed for her right away." Let me tell you I went back to the bookstore probably se
