Very Pinteresting

First off, I have marvelous news.
are you ready for it????
My bestest friend is moving back home for 9 months!! Yepp, Ashley is coming back to Ohio. Ya see, her husband is in the army and he's being deployed for nine months. So instead of her staying in Hawaii by herself for that time she's coming back home! I do feel bad that her husband has to be sent overseas, because that's never fun for anyone. But on the other hand I'm ecstatic that she's coming home! 
I haven't seen her in like forever, and now I'll get to see her in like 2 months. TWO months!! :)

Now for some pinterest fun!

one::

two::

three::

four::

five::

ain't that the truth.

 

SPORTS UPDATE::
Volleyball: ended our regular season 8-5! Not too shabby. As a coach that makes me 24-5. We have a tournament this weekend so we'll see how that goes.
Topper Football: 6-2, not too shabby either.
Buckeyes: Undefeated 7-0!!
Brownies: 1-5. Yes we won a game, we beat Cincy! Here's to an 11-5 year.
GBPack: 3-3.

One (seven) Photo

How am I supposed to pick just one picture when there's a bazillion that I love??

I could go with this one...

because who doesn't love a good drunk pic.. especially when it looks like you're flipping off the camera but really it's just a failed peace sign. Plus this picture makes me crack-up. (Malone and I).

or this one...

because who doesn't love going to Las Vegas with intense sunburn from the Brothers of the Sun concert. (Brian and I).

or maybe I should go with...

because there is too much cute for anyone to even handle. (Me and Randy).

but maybe I'll choose...

because I dont think someone can look at this picture without laughing. It's awkward and hilarious. (Me and Melissa).

then there's also this one...

because whos grandma takes shots of Jager with their grandchild on their 21st and actually likes it, loves it in fact. (Me and Gram).

or maybe I should go with a Halloween theme...

because Michael Myers is the best horror movie killer ever thought of. And his mask scares trick-or-treaters every year at the Lane Household. (Me 2009).


Even though I could choose any of those pictures, I think I'm going to go with...

a picture of Papa and I, years and years ago. Because how can you not love the Barney t-shirt, or my Papa for that matter. This is my one photo. This was perfection.

Weekend Update - Team Bagans

Friday:: 
It was NEOEA Day, which means no school for the youngin's, which meant no practice for me either. It was a nice day off. Myself and Erin went to WGAR studios so I could pick up the Cleveland Cavaliers tickets that I won. It was about an hour drive, and after a minor detour because I missed the exit, we finally made it safely. Afterwards we enjoyed lunch at Outback Steakhouse, with a lot of laughs in between. Friday night Mom wanted to go see "Taken 2" but I was feeling really lazy. So she went and saw it while I stayed home and watched "Crazy, Stupid, Love" which I thought was awesome! It was really good in my opinion. And of course it wouldn't be a Friday without a little Ghost Adventures. Mom couldn't believe how insane Zak Bagans is -I swear he makes the whole show, with his intense hair and ridiculously tight clothes. I even made up a drinking game to go along with Ghost Adventures, and thought of some pretty good pranks if I were on the show with them.

Saturday::
I worked at Beans 8-2. It was a pretty busy day, but everything went well. Then it was home to get ready for Lane-Lear Willoughby Ghost Walk. After a little Burgers n Beer though. It was my first time eating at Burgers n Beer and boy was it good! I got the stuffed portabella burger -a burger stuffed with portabella mushrooms and swiss cheese, normally I'm not a fan of swiss cheese but this hamburger was one of the best, accompanied by a Mikes Hard Cranberry, yum! The Willoughby Ghost Walk was awesome, I had so much fun! This is where the 'Team Bagans' comes in (as in Zak Bagans from Ghost Adventures). We toured the town of Willoughby, Ohio and learned some of it's history as well as stories about "hauntings". Our tour leader carried a lantern with a candle lit inside the whole tour and at the end asked for a volunteer to blow it out. I volunteered to do it, she said that when you blow out a candle after a ghost story if you re-lite the candle later then you'll have new friends. As soon as I got home I re-lit the candle and my Mom freaked out, it was hilarious. Then she claimed that the TV was acting up because of the spirits I brought home. She's too funny. Oh, and on a sidenote: AMC's Fear Fest began! I lovelovelove a good horror movie.

The Girl in Blue's headstone.

the candle re-lit (dun dun dun).

PS, the Buckeyes won again, 7-0! #UrbanRenewal #BuckeyeNation

Sunday::
Here we go Brownies, here we go! woof woof!! The Browns beat Cincy, yes we actually won a game.. ya can't lose them all (unless you're the '08 Lions). Oh, and I witnessed the Space Jump. That was really neat to watch, but scary too. I can't believe that guy had the guts to do what he did, crazy! Did anyone else see the Space Jump?

Now, for a brand new link-up!

1:: Finish writing out messages on the volleyball girl's gifts.

2:: Win our last game tonight.

3:: Do multiple loads of laundry.

4:: Clean my room- dust it, vacuum, organize, etc.

Sunday Social

1. Favorite childhood book: 

    I loved the Berenstein Bears books, and all the Junie B. Jones books.

2. Favorite book lately:

 My favorite book is PS, I Love You

but a favorite from recently would be That Boy or Stalk Me -both by Jillian Dodd

3. Book you wish you could live in:

  that's a tough one.. I guess The Hunger Games -hah just kidding. I guess I'd say any Nicholas Sparks book, he always has great settings for his books.

4. If you could be any character from a book who would it be and why?

Ivan from If You Could See Me Now by Cecilia Ahern because he's an imaginary friend, and I think that'd be cool. 

or,

Jadyn Reynolds from That Boy because we are similar.

 The Notebook, or Dear John, or Something Borrowed, or The Hunger Games.

5:: Randy&Melissa visited and showed us their Hawaii pictures, and gave us all really awesome souvenirs!

6 (honorable mention):: Randy and his friend Mike got lost in the woods after hunting last night. It made me laugh cause my mom was actually starting to get worried, but I knew they'd make it out sooner or later.

1.  My favorite flower is   I have no idea, not roses though .

2.  You should never talk about   boring stuff like politics, or anything extended about the weather.

4. This fall you will probably find me wearing    jeans and a tshirt/hoodie/northface.

5. I wish I were  completely fine, but I still have a little congestion.

6. My favorite TV show currently is   Modern Family, The Office, Parks&Rec, Survivor.

7.  This weekend I want to  see the Buckeyes get another W, and see the Browns win their first game.

Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin

Here's what goodreads says:

Something Borrowed tells the story of Rachel, a young attorney living and working in Manhattan. Rachel has always been the consummate good girl---until her thirtieth birthday, when her best friend, Darcy, throws her a party. That night, after too many drinks, Rachel ends up in bed with Darcy's fiancé. Although she wakes up determined to put the one-night fling behind her, Rachel is horrified to discover that she has genuine feelings for the one guy she should run from. As the September wedding date nears, Rachel knows she has to make a choice. In doing so, she discovers that the lines between right and wrong can be blurry, endings aren't always neat, and sometimes you have to risk all to win true happiness. Something Borrowed is a phenomenal debut novel that will have you laughing, crying, and calling your best friend.

Here's what I think::

Good book, but I actually like the movie better for this one. I loved the movie, but the book was just a B- for me. Nothing real special. I think it's still worth reading, but I also recommend watching the movie.

HAPPY FRIDAY!
