Happy Thanksgiving

I just want to wish everyone a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving!!! I am leaving today at 12pm to drive up to Ohio!! Wish me luck, I am traveling 12 hours with my mom, dad and a 3 year old!! I am looking forward to seeing my family in Ohio and spending time!! Russ will be staying behind this year. My cousin is getting married on Saturday in Columbus, this just so happens to be the same day that the Clemson vs. Carolina game is playing. So, this is our first Thanksgiving being married and we will be apart!!! Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving and Go TIGERS!!!!

Weekend wrap up....

This past weekend I went to the Clemson game on Saturday. I had been sick all last week and then decided at 4 in the morning to go to the game!! I asked Russ if he wanted to go and he said "no!" If you know Russ at all you would have thought that he was sick or something, but he really didn't want to go!! Weird I know!!! SO, we had a girls day!! My friend, Natalie is in town for a couple of weeks. She, Barry and Ava moved up to PA a couple of months ago. I was excited to see her and her little girl Ava. I drove to RH to meet Tara and Kelly and then we went to Spartanburg to pick up Natalie. When we got to Natalie's sisters house little Ava was waiting for us!! She is so precious!! (As soon as Kelly emails me pics i will post!!!) She has to be one of the cutest little babies!!!! We were then off to the game! We had such a good time!! It was so great to hang out with everyone!!!! We decided that we weren't done hanging out, so we went into Tiger Town!

As I was walking downtown Tiger Town, I tripped!!! I know!!! I fell off of the curb, went flying and landed on my knee and side!!! I was emabarressed and laughing histerically. I scrapped up my palms, fingers, my knee is black and blue and half of the tops of my toes are skinned up!!! We all instantly started laughing!! My little crystal light packets flew out of my purse and my flip-flop went the other way!! I was literaly a mess!!! I had to spend Sunday recoperating!! That was my weekend!! I guess that is what i get for laughing at others when they fall!



In work news... The wife and boyfriend are on the outs!!! They are not currently speaking to each other! I think the Christmas party will be interesting!!

Crazy, but that's how it goes......

I went and got my haircut yesterday!! Well, just a trim. I have been growing it for two years. And it is almost long enough to donate to Locks for Love. (you have to have 10inches) SO, I decided to grow it out a little bit longer, so when i donate my 10 inches I won't have super short hair. Hopefully, this won't take forever because it is starting to get on my nerves.

But, when i was at the hair salon I discovered a new craft!! They were selling these cute picture frames with Bows and Jewels that were super cute!! They were also charging outragous prices for these, so me and another co worker (not the one that i talk about in the following paragraphs), have decided that next weekend we will get together and make these!! They are so neat!! I really can't describe it and i so tried to take a picture with my camera phone, but that would have been way to obvious!!! So, you will have to wait to see the final product!!!

Blah Monday and Random Stuff

I hate Mondays and really am not liking today!! I just found out that we have a meeting at 9:30. Fun!! Also, i am sick!! I think I have another sinus infection. I woke up yesterday morning at 3am with my ear in pain!! I am going to stick it out one more day!! Hopefully, I won't have to go to the dr!
This weekend we went to a surpise birthday party for our friend Sok!! He turned the big 30!!!
He was really surprised!! We had a great time and got to hang out with a lot of our friends!!!!
In other news- we also had two weddings this weekend!!! Congrats to the new Mr & Mrs Werner and Mr. & Mrs. Newton!! Although we couldn't make these in person we are so happy for you guys!! (one was in St.Thomas and the other in Ohio!! Since we got married this year we have almost no vacation days left!!!)

Also, my little goddaughter Leah celebrated her 2nd birthday!! Happy Birthday Leah!!!

I am starting back at the gym today!! My bootcamp class was finished about a month ago and I am finally getting motivated to go back to the gym!! I did a bootcamp class for 10 weeks. Well, it was supposes to be 10, but i only completed 9 weeks!! Four days a week i was either getting up at 5:15am or going to work out after work!! This was pure torture!! The first day I had to run a mile!!!! I thought i was going to die!! There were many mornings that before I walked into the house i had to shake and get off all of the grass!! Yes, it truly was running and getting dirty!! And at the end i gained 5 lbs! I did feel better, but seriously 5lbs!!! Oh well, at least i know i can run a mile!! So, today i start back at the gym!!! I have pump it class and then i may do water aerobics with my mom!!! It all depends on how i feel!!! I will keep ya posted!! Happy Monday!!

To trick-or-treat, or not trick-or-treat that was the question...

I love holidays!! At the beginning of October I got all of the Halloween decorations out!! The house had witches, ghosts and pumpkins everywhere! Since, this was our first Halloween at our new house Russ and I were really excited. We couldn't wait to pass out candy to trick-or-treaters. I even went to the mall and had this cute Halloween bucket engraved that said "The Comptons!" Well, a few weeks ago Russ got a call from his boss letting him know that he would need to be in ATL for the Oct 31st weekend to help with inventory. we then decided that I would go to ATL with him for the weekend. Go figure, as soon as I was printing out my directions to IKEA Russ calls and they don't need him!!! So, it was 3:30 on Halloween and no plans, no candy, nothing!!! We get home and decided to sit out on our back porch and pretend we aren't home. Well, that lasted all about 15 mins. We rush to the store and buy candy, then run out and buy more!!! Here are a couple of pics of Russ and I passing out candy!!

We had picked up some pumpkins on our way home from a wedding in GA a couple of weeks ago. I finally got around to carving them the Tuesday before Halloween. Well, one trick-or-treater asked me if I was an artist. I said "No, but why". The little girl said that my pumpkin was awesome and that I should be a pumpkin carving artist!! I was pretty proud of myself!! Hope everyone had a Happy and Safe Halloween!!!
