Finally!

Finally, after years of waiting (literally) I have Inheritance! This is one of my favorite books series, and I could not WAIT for this book to come out. It was my best Black Friday purchase :)

Spring Break

So I realize that it might be a bit late, but I never did a post about spring break!  Spring break was pretty much awesome.  I went to New York City with Sarah, her boyfriend Jon, and my friend Megan.

The whole group right after we got off the train at Penn Station.

We did a bunch of cool things, like:

contemplating art at the Museum of Modern Art,

finding a random can in our room,

Walking through Central Park,

Going to the observatory on the 86th floor of the Empire State Building,

seeing Phantom of the Opera on Broadway,

hitting up Magnolia to mack on some cupcakes,

and a bunch of other cool things!  It was a really fun trip :D

Go Pack Go!

Yesterday, my dad and I went on an epic quest to find jerseys for my mom and I to wear during the Packers-Falcons game.  Unfortunately, Falcons jerseys are hard to come by in Wisconsin.

YEA RIGHT! Like we would root for anyone other than the Packers.  I got the last Aaron Rodgers jersey in my size, and we got mom the last Clay Matthews jersey in her size.  Lucky day!

It was just me and my parents watching the game, and we had so much fun!  We made some really good food, and had a great time yelling and cheering the Packers on.

Here are my mom and me doing a victory side-banana after Aaron Rodgers scored his touchdown.

And here we are attempting to do that thing that Clay Matthews does.

 

Final Score: 48-21.  On to the NFC Championship game for the Packers!!!!

New Boots!

My sisters and I have all been looking all over for cute boots since the beginning of the summer.  I found a pair that I liked in the Boston Store, and last week Sarah called to tell me that they were on sale for $35!  So, of course, I had her pick them up for me, and I got them on Saturday :)

I LOVE them!  I love how they look, and they are SUPER comfortable.  I have been waiting for the weather to warm up so that I can wear them with my new dress, but that doesn’t look like it is going to happen any time soon.  So I decided that I am going to wear them tomorrow with another outfit that I think will look cute :)

On another note, the lucky boys who live across from me got to watch me model these boots (with my sweat pants… sexy combination) not once, but TWICE last night while I showed them to my girlfriends.

New Rings

Today, my family (minus Sarah, who is babysitting William for a few days) and I went to West Towne mall to meet up with my cousins, aunt, and uncle, and do some shopping :)  It was a lot of fun.  I didn’t really need to get anything, so I was pretty much just there for the company.  I did, however, end up getting two new belly button rings at Hot Topic!  They were buy one get one half off, so I couldn’t resist.

Here is the first ring :)  Britta got this ring too.

And here’s the second one.  Britta did not get this one.  She got a pretty red one with red jewels and two red circles attached at the bottom.  It’s prettier than that description makes it sound, though.

It’s been awhile….

So once again, it has taken me a couple days to actually update this thing.  And once again, I was babysitting William so the blog got pushed to the back of my mind.  But that is OK, since I got a bunch of cute webcam pictures with him :D

First I decided to take a normal one.

And then we started messing around with the filters.  He particularly liked this one.

Playin’ football.

He looked at the screen and went “there’s two!”

I had a lot of fun watching him, as usual :D

 

Today, my sisters and I decided to all dress alike, just for the fun of it.

It took us forever to figure out what we wanted to do today, and by the time we figured it out, pretty much all we had time to do was get yummy beverages and hang out at the mall for a little bit.  We had time to shop around a little, but not for long.  Then we had to go pick mom up from work, where we found her holding an adorable baby!  So Sarah and I got to hold him.  He spit up on me.  But that’s ok, he was cute enough to get away with it :P

Dub/Dells

Yeah yeah I know, it’s been quite awhile since I have updated.  First, I was at my aunt and uncle’s watching William, and then when I got home the internet died again (that, and I got a little lazy.)  So here are my updates… finally.

As I said, I went to babysit my favorite little two year old on Tuesday and Wednesday, and we had tons of fun :)  It is crazy how much easier is it to communicate with him now than it was when he was a baby and we had to rely on baby sign language.

Here is the little man trying to figure out how my iPod works.  We were going to make a fort on my bed, but then he got distracted by the iPod, so the fort was a no-go.

 

Today, my mom, Brenna, and I drove to the Wisconsin Dells with my Grandma to meet up with aunt Anne, go shopping, and get lunch with some of their old friends.  I got to see one of my friends, too!

Tanner lives really close to the Dells, so he met us up there and got to hang out with my family… lucky him.

Music Man/Outlet Shopping

First off, a picture from last night!

This is one of my best friends- Elise!  After going to the Music Man last night (a wonderful production, I might add), Elise came over to my house for a little bit, and we ended up taking some pretty interesting pictures on my webcam.  I have messed around with it a little bit before, but this was the first time that I actually took pictures.  And it was super fun.  The more… interesting… ones will not be posted on here, though.

 

Now on to today.  Today my family and I went shopping in the Wisconsin Dells outlet mall, which was really fun.  They have all been there before, but this was my first time going.  The other times they went all happened to be when I was working.  Hope that they didn’t do that on purpose….

What do you think?  Should my dad get a hat like that?  I tried on a similar one in brown, but I don’t think that I pulled it off quite as well as he does.  We all had a really fun time shopping, found some cute things, some scary things, and some really good food.

William!

Today, my mom, sisters, grandma, and a couple of my aunts all got together at my Aunt Anne’s house for a nice little get together :)  Of course, everyone was excited to see our favorite little William- Anne’s two year old son.

Here he is drinking milk out of his sippy cup.  I honestly don’t think that kids can come any cuter than him.  I get to babysit him a lot, and am going over Monday night to watch him for about a day and a half.  Super pumped for that!

I thought that this was an adorable picture of him and Grandma Joyce.  I believe they were talking about an accident he had when he fell off the couch awhile ago.  He really liked playing with her necklace.

So… as is bound to happen when a bunch of Kieslichs get together, we ended up doing a bit of shopping.  Here you can see everyone (minus William (who was napping), Uncle Chris, and myself) who was at this little shindig.

A close up of some of the shoppers in action.  Sarah and Grandma are checking out a catalog, and Aunt Jill and Aunt Anne are looking at a dress online.

There were a bunch of garage sales today as well, so on our way home we ended up stopping and checking out a few of those.

 

So all in all, today was a very fun day.  And it isn’t even over yet.  Later tonight I get to go to a musical that I LOVE- The Music Man!  Our local community theater group is putting it on, and I get to go with one of my best friends, whose parents are both in it :D

Shopping Day!

As neither of my sisters or I have a summer job, we have a lot of free time together while our parents are at work.  Today, we decided to use that time to do what girls do- go shopping!  I had the sole purpose of finding an adorable dress in Francesca’s (I had seen it last time I went shopping with Sarah) and trying it on.  It was not my intent to buy said dress, as it had been $38 dollars, and I am but a poor college student.  However, when we got there, there it was! On the sale rack!  For only $20!  I had to buy it…

Is it not the most adorable dress ever?!?  Then, of course, our purpose changed to finding a chunky belt to wear with it, which we found at H&M, after much looking.  We browsed around to find some fun jewelry also, but didn’t end up getting any today.  We decided, when we got home, to match it up with these silver Nine West shoes that I bought last year:

I’m not the best in heels.  But I can make it work.

This dress also looks super cute with a long sleeve black shirt, black leggings, and my brown winter boots :) (I didn’t get a picture of that look because it was way too hot and I couldn’t stand to be in it long enough for a photo shoot.)
