Spring Break!

I wrote yesterday that I didn't do ANY school work or anything over break.  It was WONDERFUL not having something I had to do each day. I loved it!

So then what was I doing each day over break?  Well, let's take a look!

I already said that Monday I went to Belle Isle with my cousin, Gabby (you saw those pics yesterday!). But here are a few more..

Tuesday, Matt made his YUMMY barbeque at my house and we invited Papa over for dinner too.  He and Mom loved his barbeque! :) (We also had a pasta side dish that both Matt and I both love and I'm pretty sure we'd honestly fight over the last bite..haha!)

On Wednesday, Mom, Abby and I all spent the day together--mostly out in the west end.  We had several appointments and errands to run, but we also went to the movies and saw The Lorax!

On Thursday, I was back out at Short Pump, but this time with Matt.  We started out by having lunch at Ledo's Pizza.  Neither of us had been there before, but I had a giftcard from winning the Lost Lyric Contest on K95 back in November, so we've been meaning to go!

My pizza... (sorry it's sideways)

 and Matt's pizza!

After an afternoon of shopping with a horrible headache, Matt bought Starbucks! Yummmmmmm!

on Friday, Abby and I went bowling with Dad, and realized that real bowling is NOT just like Wii bowling!

finally, Friday night, Matt and I went to The Shake Shop!! Yes, The Shake Shop. (It will always be The Shake Shop to me, no matter what the sign out front says.)



Belle Isle!

I didn't post at ALL last week! At. All.  I didn't have any intention of not blogging, but I was on Spring Break.  This was the first time since Winter Break sophomore year that I haven't had any work or school work to do, so it was nice to actually be ON a break for a week! That being said, I decided to take a break from everything I normally do during the weekdays, including blogging.

Last Monday, my cousin Gabby and I went on an adventure down at Belle Isle in Richmond.  She's been many times before, but I had never been! We've literally been trying to plan for about a year and a half to get together and take some pictures, and when we both had Spring Break at the same time, we were so glad we could finally meet up!  We had a lot of fun, even though jumping across a couple of the rocks made me nervous ;) haha!

Enjoy some of these pictures from our adventure :)

 I know these are the same picture, but I couldn't choose with effect I liked best!

Thanks for showing me Richmond's playground, Gabby!! :)
