today is mine and braden's 10 month anniversary!! yayyy us!! this morning i got up and went to church.. and it was a verrry good service. then i came home, got ready, ate and then my mom took me out to tara's house for her graduation party :-) yayyy! all of her friends either had to work or were on the crew trip, so it was just me, her boyfriend and his friend kevin, and most of her family. it was very fun..and her family's absolutely huge. she's the youngest, then she has a sister and two brothers..and they're all married. there's mitch and he's married with a 1 year old daughter. then there's mark and he's married with a 7 year old daughter named kyla, and a 3 year old daughter named kara (after tara). and last but not least there's her sister marrisa and her husband who have a new born son..who, by the way was extremely adorable. then her grandparents, uncle's and aunts were all there. so anyhow, we ate hot dogs and some other really yummy food including graduatin cake, then we just hungout and i got to met practically her whole family :-) i thought it was funny though because all of them reminded me so much of my mom's side of the family and i thought that was interesting. they were all very nice too :-) i got her a cute snoopy graduation card and gave her money. she liked it..and it was good because everyone got her a card and money, so yeah. anyhow, the party didn't officially start until 2:30 but i got there an hour early to help her set everything up. so i was there from about 1:30-5:00 :-) my mommy picked me up and we went straight from tara's to evening service at church. i stayed in the car when we got there to call braden, because i wanted him to come so i could see him since it was our anniversary. no one answered though..but when i got in there, he was there. yay! and the first thing i did when he came over was give him a huge hug and i didn't let go. i missed him so much. being at tara's made me realize how lucky i am to have him..for reasons that i think, for both tara and i, are too personal to put in here..but yeah. after service melody, casey, braden, jamie, bethany and i all went out to eat at a chinese place, then met everyone else in the youth group back at the church and we all watched The National Treasure. which for braden and i, it was the second time this weekend that we've seen it..but that's okay because it's a good movie :-) anyway, we took braden home afterwards and that's about it. laterrrrrrr everyone. p.s. i hope lauren did good this weekend. i've really missed her.
