i love my life.
i have a job.
im going back to school.
im riding again.
i have the most amazing boyfriend.
we bought a house.
ahhhhhh :]]
so.
job = walgreen's. nothing great but it's a job and i'm not going to be picky right now.. plus i worked at walgreen's junior year and it wasn't bad. money is money, right? plus its only like 20 hours a week, so whatev.
school = august 25th. i'm taking four classes, just gen ed stuff, three days a week.. im pumped. i'm actually excited to get back to school. weird? just a little, but its okay.. i'm pretty weird.
riding = love. i am so so so happy to be riding again. even though i'm only riding once a week for now, i'm still just thrilled. once the heat dies down ill start taking two, maybe three lessons a week, we'll see. it's just so hot out right now, even though i ride at 830am. i love hunters edge. i love my trainer. ahh yes.
boyfriend = the best thing that has ever happened to me. his name is houston. and he's amazing. i love his family. my family loves him. he likes me. we're pretty great together. and, his family has horses. at their house. i love ittt. i have never fallen so fast and so hard for someone. i'm really really excited for the future because of him. goshhh im nerdyyyy.
new house = can't waitttt. it's so pretty and we have a killer view of the strip out the back, and the mountains out the front.. it's brand new and will be done in a few weeks. we went shopping today and got all our bedding and stuff.. i'm excited! yayyyy.

| well hello there, xanga.
i can't believe tomorrow is July 1st. where has this year gone?
well, we are in Henderson, NV now.. about 20 minutes from the strip! it's amazing being back with my family. i really feel at home again. Henderson is really nice, too. it's crazy hot right now, but we have friends that live in the country club so we go as their "guests" and lay by the pool pretty much every day. i've been looking for jobs with no success but i'm not worried, it'll happen with time. i start riding lessons this friday at Hunters Edge and i am so excited. i went out to the barn Saturday and met the trainers and a few of the boarders/lesson kids.. and i just can't wait to be riding again. we are looking at houses a lot and hopefully we find one soon cause none of us are very fond of this rental house. it's too small and just not "us" but it's better than nothing so we're dealing. tobey and bennett are adjusting to the heat well, even though bennett tries to tear down his little fenced in area four or five times before 7am... and he just so happens to be RIGHT outside my bedroom window. stupid head. tobey loves being outside and in the backyard he will just walk around and climb on big rocks and be a little explorer. goofball. overall, i really like it here so far. i'm hanging out with my cousins adam and garrett on friday for the 4th which i'm pretty pumped about.
i went back to Green Bay the 19-23rd of june. it was absolutely amazing. i had the best time ever. i saw Harley on the Saturday i was there. it was so bittersweet. i got out of the car and yelled his name, he ran up from the back of the pasture and whinnied at me. i rode him bareback and he was perfect. he is so happy. he looks great, his headshaking is gone, he likes the horses he is with.. i really couldn't ask for anything more. skyler and jan are taking such good care of him and i can tell skyler really cares about him. i am really really hoping things work out through the next few months of the lease and they buy him. otherwise i will really be lost. anyways, aside from harley.. i got to see pretty much anyone i wanted to see. it felt so comfortable and just.. right.. to be with everyone but at the same time i couldnt picture myself there for the whole summer. it was a weird feeling. i was so glad to see everyone, but by the time monday rolled around i was ready to leave. even though i was disgustingly hungover after twelve hours of drinking the night before.. yes, twelve hours. thats what happens at grad parties! haha. it was so worth it though. bigjohn came back too that weekend which was just extra special.. i would have been really disappointed if i wouldnt have gotten to see him. i saw forest on monday before i left, too.. i think i would have cried if i didnt see her. she's in france right now. i'm jealous. i saw alyssa on saturday too! with chickenhead. haha. anyways, i spent two nights with kelsey which was great.. and my last night with kate. i hope people come to visit me in vegas in the next year. i'm sure i will be going back to green bay every summer for a while.. but i'd love for my best friends to see my new life out here.. plus, its VEGAS!!
"There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered" -nelson mandela
going back to green bay and being with everyone.. was really a kind of "coming to jesus" moment for me. i realized how much these four and a half months away have changed me, and i'd like to think it's for the better. like i said, i really couldn't picture myself in green bay anymore. it's weird. i love everyone there, more than anything, but i just feel like.. for the time being.. i've outgrown green bay. going back there i just realized that there is really nothing there besides my friends.. which is definitely enough of a reason for me to go back every year. but, i'm definitely happy with my decisions and with where i am.
we are going to see the American Idols Live tour on Saturday! haha. i'm honestly excited. i'm pretty much in LOVE with david cook.
so that's life right now. i'm content.

hi.
i miss riding. so much. once i'm in nevada i'm going to find a barn and start lessons. i really like this one.. www.huntersedgelv.com but it will depend how far it is from the house. i miss having a "barn family." i miss wearing half chaps and boots. i miss horses. i cant wait to start again. i'm not sure how much lessons are but im hoping to ride at least twice a week. part of me thinks its pointless because i don't have a horse but then part of me knows that horses are just part of who i am and even though i won't have harley, he would want me to keep riding. so i will. if that means i just lesson for the next five years, then fine. i just know i NEED to be riding. i'm excited.
so yes speaking of nevada.. a little update there i suppose. my parents sold their house.. my mom and sisters are leaving june 10th to head out here. they're stopping in arkansas and arizona on the way so it will take a bit of time before they are in henderson but i'm moving there june 13th. my dad is hangin around GB to finish out the blizzard season.. so we're living in a bomb ass rental house while my mom goes and looks at houses.. hopefully we can find one quick since they can look at more houses on a daily basis. ahh i can't wait. i miss my family.. so much.
i'm going to green bay in 23 days. i am really really excited.
kate was here last weekend. amazing.
i love tobey.
k i'm gonna go to bed.. goodnight.

| so. california. is. amazing.
i'm really happy here. it's so nice to be around all my family that i haven't seen in YEARS.. and i guess after spending two months basically all alone in arizona, its nice to just watch TV every night with family. you take that for granted when its something you can do all the time. i started working at Target this past Friday and so far i like it a lot. everyone is so nice, and not gonna lie i was getting bored? so its good to be busy again. i went and had a riding lesson at the equestrian center here (www.hcpec.com) and god i almost forgot how much i love to ride. its definitely not the same as riding harley, but its horses and its the best i can do now. my new trainer, Ginny Spooner (google her son.. Richard Spooner.. hes kind of a big deal lol), is really nice and i feel like i learned quite a bit in just one lesson. problem is they are pricey, $60/hour, so i'll have to wait until i work another week or two before i can start splurging on weekly lessons. so yes, Harley is on his way back to de pere to spend the next two months at Bonfire Stables with jan and skyler. if all goes as planned, when i come home in June they'll write a check and Harley will have a new home. jan is so excited about it, and its really making me feel a lot more at ease about the whole situation. My dad went out there yesterday to bring a check for the hauler and he really liked their barn and thinks harley will be happy there. aw my baby. TOBEY IS NAUGHTY! speaking of my other baby, tobey is turning into quite a terror. he's not such a sweet pup anymore! he has his moments but lately he has been rather destructive. sassy boy. so yeah, i've settled in nicely here. come visit me. we'll go to disneyland.
