Thanksgiving Recap

Remember how two weeks ago I mentioned I wanted to decorate our living room like dis?

Well I mustered up every ounce of Martha Stewart I had in me (and trust me, that is verrrrry little) and created this!

(note: no, I did NOT add that picture of my sister and me. That is always hung there. That would just be conceited if I was asking people to "give thanks" for molly and I...even though we are fantastic children). 

I was pretty proud of my decor. 

Anyways, thanksgiving was a grand success. 

the tryptophan (turkey hangover) hit puppyloulou the hardest.

hope you all had a wonderous thanksgiving!

When you get us together, even pharmacology can be a funny subject.

My best friend Lolo is in dental hygiene school. (It's because she's gorgeous. All the pretty girls are hygienists).  No wonder I didn't get accepted...

I would never get in to the medical field. Both because I do not look the part and also because I can't even look at someone elses hangnail, let alone scrape stuff out of their teeth. GROSS. 

Well, Lolo and I are a big fan of making videos. Dancing videos, radio shows, lip syncing videos, you name it, we've done it. But until this week, we had never made a video about pharmacology.

Shocker, I know.  I mean, look at us. We look like sophisticated collegiates, don't we?

Yeeeaaah, most definitely. 

So when Lo told me she had to make a video for her pharmacology class, (for those of us who are not medical savvy...it means medicine guys)  I knew it would be a grand time as usual.

Long story short, this video about very serious prescription medications and their dental treatment implications turned into a video involving Miley Cyrus being depressed, "2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted" by Snoop Dogg and 2Pac, and a woman named Shonquine with a heart problem. 

Here's a clip to prove it to you.

Safe to say, I think we nailed it. 

My partner in crime, we dun' done it again. 

And today she is 22! 22 never looked so good. luv 2 luv 2 luv ya old lady.

Last night, sister's boyfriend and I were making the horrendous trek back to school because we have the last week of the quarter this week and then finals next week. 

Anyways, on the way back, my favorite subject came up. This guy. Probably because I talk about him more than any other topic in life. I find a way to bring him up all the time. Does that make me creepy? #yes

This weekend marked 3 years and 4 months with my favorite hunk of burnin love. (yes, I do have each monthaversary in my phone. sue me). That's forty months. Forty dang good months. 

So, on this lonely Monday night, I decided to walk down memory lane. Here are some gems from the early days of Jojo and Sar-rah-rah...

I also have video footage of his karaoke sessions...but those I have been mandated not to share. But they're pretty fantastic.

A few weeks ago, jojo and sister's boyfriend matched at church. so obviously I documented it.

It's like they called each other to coordinate. Precious. 

This weekend, Jonjon played in an Alumni vs Varsity basketball game at our old school. 

Let's just say I very much enjoy watching his basketballing skills. 

In a drooling over the attractiveness kind of way. 

 I may or may not watch his highlight VHS tapes from back in the day. Just call me stalkermom.

Guys, my boyfriend is such a baller. Is there anything better? Nope.

love you my jojobear. thank you for allowing me to be obsessed with you.

Tomorrow is the big turkey day, so in true McCary fashion, we will be shopping at the very last minute. We love the thrill of time running out and coming down to the wire.....not. We just are too busy to get ready any earlier. Sue us.

This break has been a bit stressful so far, with work almost every morning and then working on a psychology paper (thank you psychology professor who has taken pity on the fact that I didn't do so hot during the quarter and is letting me make up for it with a very long research paper). I complain that it is 6 pages single spaced, but in all honesty, it's my fault for not doing better throughout the quarter. Shame on me.

So with two pages left to go on that, today will mostly be spent typing. But I am hoping to jam it out quick and be able to decorate a little bit for tomorrow. We hardly ever have Thanksgiving at our house and although it isn't going to be super formal, I am thinkin some fireplace decor might be precious.  Pinterest, as usual, makes me feel like I can magically turn into Martha Stewart herself. So as of right now, I am inspired to try and do a little spin off of these little beauties:

stay tuned to see if 

a. I actually make one. 

b. they look ridiculous or not. 

c. Fact: It will look ridiculous because I am the least crafty individual on the planet.
