bridal showers and birthday parties!

so i was supposed to go to my college's homecoming tonight but i feel awful. i hardly ever get sick and my throat is just on fire. i don't know if its just allergies or if i actually have a cold but either way, i feel terrible. it hurts all the way into my ears and this is with medicine actually in me! ugh. i hate being sick. so i'm obviously not going to homecoming. i'm planning on laying on the couch all evening and watching tv and then taking nyquil. what a fun way to spend a friday. ha. i have season one of heroes that i borrowed from my friend so hopefully i'll get hooked on that and watch that for hours at a time! ha.

my friend jessica's bridal shower was this past sunday at a place called the watershed. it was such a cute/artsy restaurant in downtown decatur and it was a lot of fun! these are some of the girls from my small group with me at the bridal shower. i can't wait for her wedding, its going to be such a fun wedding! jess is very laidback and wants her wedding to just be a big party for all of her friends and family so i know that a fun time will be had by all!

there's a family from the school that i work at who i nanny for after school a lot. when the mom travels, i help the dad with taking the kids home from school and getting them dinner when they get home, etc. i do it several times a month. i absolutely adore the children and i have so much fun with them. the little girl, katie, is in my class at school and she just turned four years old on the 8th. her birthday party at school was a lot of fun. her actual birthday party is tomorrow and i hope i feel well enough to go to it. she's quite obsessed with hannah montana so i'm going to have to get her something for her birthday that has to do with that. i know that she will love it...and i love buying gifts for people! that's so much fun to me. so hopefully i'll be feeling better tomorrow and can go to the party because i just love this little girl :)
