I thought this was rather amusing. There was a whole bunch of them, but this one particularly caught my eye.

Life is rough.

A Good Thing

These are the reactions when Linnea opened the madras shoes I gave her.
Hannah's reaction made me feel so great =]

A Friend-I love

Anna Grace came down last night holding a cookies & cream chick-fil-a milkshake, for me =]
It was great! She stayed the whole night and we watched Star Wars!

I love my friend and I am glad she is home.
I am anticipating the summer side by side.

Wisdom Teeth Saga-Episode #2

Okay, date is wrong in this one too. I filmed this one early today. If you have not yet watched the first episode, please do so now.

Wisdom Teeth Saga-Episode #1

Hey everyone! I have made a few short videos that record my wisdom teeth experience. Here is the first one. More will follow, and please remember to pray for me! Thanks
{By The Way: I made a mistake in the date. It was actually June 5th when this was recorded}

And so...

I'm back.


Now I have gone to the beach for the first time this summer. Whew!




I don't think many of you have met my dearest, Joanne. She is fabulous! We have so much in common. I first met her at Brittany's Graduation party, and since then we've discovered that we are really twins. Yes, twins. =]




Bethany, Jo, and moi.



Brittany and me =]



Hole. Bethany. Evil grin.
Need I say more?



Britt and Jo. Love these two lovely ladies <3



Now, you'll all probably wondering if I got burned. The answer is yes. But now I have a pretty sick tan




Jo and Kristen in subway. Then we got THE best ice creamy ever!

Be back

Be back June 2nd.

TOO IRONIC!

If you saw my post down there -points- than you get this.
Missed by the muppets, huh? Maybe it's a sign

Anna and I have decided we would make very bad babies.

My Birthday

Me and Mrs. Rasamoulie {who I lovingly call 'Mrs. Ras'} at the airport before I left.
She said I took their sunshine with me =]


Hayley and me. Our last moments together.
She didn't remember it was my birthday until the airport and she needed the date for a form =]


On the plane.


Not happy about the 5 year olds kicking my seat and the two screaming babies in front of me.


Anna and me at the airport. My first dozen roses =]
I'm so glad she came! I thought is was going to be just my mom.
I love surprises!





Surprise visit to Faith.
How it was decided:
Mom: "There's the exit for college park."
Anna & Rachel: "Oh yeah."
Mom: "Wouldn't it be cool to surprise her?"
Anna & Rachel: "Oh yeah! Do it, do it!"
Mom: -swerves quickly {double the speed limit} thru several lanes onto exit-

Ate at Applebees and then headed to Coldstone.
Not a bad birthday =]


Me and my pup.
Movie meeting =]

Star Struck

Dear bloggers:
Okay, so here's the deal.
I met my first famous person...s.

ALL AMERICAN REJECTS!!

Believe it bloggers.
Hayley and I were just sitting there on the train to Amsterdam and this rowdy group of twenty-somethings boarded the train.
About twenty minutes until Amsterdam I started to get suspicious of these boys who I suspected was a band of some sort.
One of the cuter guys was walking by and asked if we were Americans.
"Yes." said we.
"Celebrate it." Said he.

It was in that moment that I realized who he was: Tyson Ritter!
WHAT?!?!?!
I wasn't sure it was him, but I suspected.
On the way out of the train there was a hold up and I asked one of the guys {who is actually named: Nick Wheeler} if they were a band. He said yes and I stupidly stopped there.
But after further investigation we now have proof.

Visit this website if you don't know who I'm talking about: http://www.allamericanrejects.com/home.asp



Hayley and I can not believe how star struck we are.
More details when I get back.
Love you guys--Rachel

Vihn

In Germany. W00T

13 days away from my puppy *weeps*
Mom says she waits outside my door in the morning.
Now how sad is that?
I nearly broke down in tears =]

I've done so much I can't write it all.
Been to Paris.
AMZING.
I love it so much.
The Eiffle tower was everything wonderful you've ever heard about it and more!
I felt as if I were on top of the world. And yes, I have been on top of taller structures.
But something about it, the time, the place, the idea made it so much better.
So much more real and romantic...
{Romantic: marked by the imaginative or emotional appeal of what is heroic, adventurous, remote, mysterious, or idealized}

So next favorite: Varseille. I would have be-headed somebody for this paradise too!
The house is gorgeous, but the grounds are truly the prize!
Hayley, Ellaine, Torie, and I had a french picnic there on the lawn.
Wine, cheese, apples, baquette {LOTS of it}, and darkk chocolate dessert.

I had my first frozen Margarita in public. I am so proud.
I like drinking alcohol in public. Yes, yes, I do.
It is freeing and I am not afraid to admit it.
Not the alcohol that's freeing, but the privilage.


Had Spagetti Ice cream here in Germany. It was so strange and GOOD.
It is vanilla ice cream strained to look like spagetti. Topped with strawberry sauce and mounded atop real whipped cream. Oh yeah! And grated white chocolate ontop to look like cheese =]
It was fabulous.
I took a picture so I can show you when I get home.

{Pictures are impossible to load here. Sorry}

Oh. We ate in the ruins of a castle today!
There is a restaurant there.
I had snitzel {sp?}
You know, like snitzel and noodles {the song}
It is a thin slice of meat {most any kind} breaded and fried.
It was devine!
I also had a salad with some sort of yogurt dressing. It was different. Not bad =]

Love you peoples!~
KISS--Rachel
