Priceless Double Dating..!


Hello there everyone,

Sorry it's been so long since i have written. I went on Spring break and didn't have alot of time to blog. So me and Caleb only hung out once over the break but it was also a double date!! Guess what.... it was FREE tooo.. haha. yup.. So i bet you are DIEING to know what we did.. well.

My best friend Aiko is married to this guy named Stephen.. and that's who we went on our double date with. What we did was we first went to the park and played around. It was a little chilly so we didn't stay there too long. However, while we were there we went to the zoo and saw the monkeys! :) After that we went to Walmart.. haha (yes. not the most romantic place) but it was fun. We just goofed off, took pics of random things.
I am not sure how much the boys enjoyed it. haha.It was a lot of fun.. We would have hung out longer but sadly I had to go to the dentist.. ( BOOOOO.) So Caleb took me and waited for me while i was in the Dentist ( Caleb is quite the sweetheart)

Once i was done at the Dentist we went back to my place and hung out for a while. We sang some karaoke.. (haha.. well i sang mostly.. ) My brother just bought this new karaoke machine.. I think its quite fun.. Then we went and sat on the porch swing and just talked... it was sweet.. !! Then we helped my mom get dinner ready. We peeled potatoes.. and Caleb is so sweet he let me use the peeler and he used a knife.. made me a little nervous though! haha However, for a while him and my mom got talking about politics ( of course.. lol) and so i ened up doing most of the peeling.. hahaha ( I am sure Caleb would tell you a different story!) However, after that Caleb left... It was anything like amazing.. but it was fun still.. and Priceless!! :)

Double dating is pretty fun.. its something i would love to do more often.. Some ideas i came up with next time are.. well for one if you want to go to Walmart . you could have some type of scavenger hunt. That is what I wanted to do but the boys.... we weren't so excited. I wanted to played hide in go seek also in Walmart. haha or if you didn't want to go to Walmart.. you could go bowling... get ice cream, snow cones, coffee, play board games, make some type of crafts.. There are lots of things to though for a double date!!

I have been trying to brain storm on some things on what me and Caleb could do for a cheap/ fun date.. that isnt something we do all the time like ( watch movies.. lol) But i will let you know what i come up with.... hehe ( Caleb is going home this weekend so i dont know if we are going to do anything... Last night we went to Walmart and we went running with another friend.. it was nice to see him and talk to him for just a little.. I have come to start appreciating the small things.! Expectally when you are a busy college student and you dont have that much free time!

OH.. on a side note... i went on a girl date.. and went shopping over Spring break.. and Me and my friend went to Steak and Shake and got a Shake.. and it just happened to be during happy hour.. and it was SOO good.. so that is an idea.. if you live near a steak and shake!! go get a YUMMY shake during Happy hour!! :)

Anyways, hopefully next time I have some more ideas for ya.. the things i do really aren't that AMAZING.. I think its just depends on what attitude you have on weather or it is fun. Because let me tell you Cheap dates can be fun! :)

Applebees??... Yes please!!

Hello there dear friends,
So.. i decided that i would change things up a little bit and blog about my night instead of waiting till Monday!! hehe!
So.. first of off.. let me say. i was super excited to go on a date with Caleb... It was super cute.. cause Thursday night.. he was like "Joee, do you want to go to dinner with me?" and i said "aw.. Are you asking me on a date??" hehe.. and he was like "um, i'm just wanted to know if you wanted to go to eat dinner wit me.. like somewhere niceish.." and... I said " AW... Caleb.. I WOULD love to go on a date with you!!!" :).. hehe.. So anyways.. Caleb came over.. and we chatted while i did my hair.. (which i took all this time curling it.. and it didn't stay long...) Then we decided to go to Applebees.. We waited for only about 25-30 mins.. it wasn't too bad.. It was nice to just be able to be relaxed and chat because both our weeks have been so busy we have hardly seen each other!! .. ( I wasn't as impressed with the service.. or the food.. but... it wasn't that bad..) So.. my friends.. you must see that... our dinner wasnt some outrageously cheap meal... but it was worth it..
The rest of the weekend i think will be spend studying...soo.. ya.. haha. After we ate.. we went to Wal-mart and I got some things.. and we also go some milk to go along with the oreos my mom sent me!! mmmmm...tasty!!!
Then we went back to my lovely dorm.. and watched the Bee Movie ( yes.. it is a kid movie.. but Caleb wanted to watch it cause it has Jerry Seinfeld in it..) It's cute.. i had seen it before with some girls i've babysat but Caleb hadn't. It was fun though... my lovely roommate joined us.. making it even more fun!! :) ( we added our commentary.. which i am sure.. Caleb just LOVED...) haha. but yep.. that was about the main parts of the night.. So.. it was anything crazy.. but then.. it was still so fun.. and meaningful to me. :) Welp... If i do anything else fun... and cheap this weekend. i will keep you posted!! Until then!!
Joee
P.s. I was happy to see that i now have 3 followers.. haha !! :)

Baby why dont we just dance...!

Ok,
So my title has nothing to do with this blog.. i just really wanted to write that.. lol
Anyways, HELLO there!!
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend? I did.. and it was spent cheaply!! :) Sorry, i haven't written in a while. I went home last weekend so there wasn't much to talk about. So.. lets start with FRIDAY.. my favorite day of the week! :)

Friday: 2/26/10



So me and Caleb went bowling with Caleb's brother and his wife and then another couple. It was quite fun..!! I love bowling ( i even got one strike) yay!!.. Also, it happened that Caleb had these coupon things for a free game of bowling so all we had to do pay for was the shoes!! :) So it turned out to be pretty cheap!! yay!!! Then after that we went back to one of the guys house and we watched this kind of spooky movie called Pandorum.. It was really confusing and creepy. After that we also watched some of the show supernatural. It was ok.. Its kind of interesting.. I am just not a big fan of supernatural stuff.. That was about all we did that night!

Saturday:
We started off this day by grabbing soe donuts which were only $1.50... and then we went to go do some work for Caleb's boss.. in which we made $24 dollars for 2 hours!! :) so.. after that we went cleaned up and then grabbed some lunch/dinner since it was already 4 and we hadn't ate lunch. We went to Pizza Hut. ( We didn't get any CRAZY deal or anything..) We did get this family pasta for only 12.99 and it came with bread sticks... It wasn't bad.. ( i still had like have like a whole serving left in my frig) oh.. crazy... so while we were eating some guy left his like 2 6 or 7 year old boys in pizza hut by them selves and then when he came back the manager told him that next time she was going to call the cops... and so he stormed out saying all kind of mean stuff. haha it was CRRRAZZY! ( some parents these days.... idk) Any who.. after that we....went and rented a movie ( which took us FOREVER to figure out what we wanted to watch).. haha we ended up picking Surrogates with Bruce Willis. It was good. better then i thought it was going to be..But guess WHAT!! ?? We also didn't have to pay for the movie because i had a 3 dollar credit on my account! yay!! hehe.. So ... we really didn't do a whole lot Saturday. but it was nice.. at one point we just relaxed and talked... (which is always nice to do..)

Sunday:
SOoooooo.. Me and Caleb went to this different church that his boss had invited us to because we heard that there was going to be a pot luck afterwards.. (main reason for going.. lol ) but also there was going to be this group of kids from Central Christian College performing... It was really good. It was different but good. They dressed up in like clothes that they might have worn back then and sand and danced and then this one guy spoke. It was real nice. :) then.. of course we went to the free pot luck afterwards ( I LOVE church pot lucks).. It was TASTY... After church we went back to our room.. I cleaned my room.. and vacuumed even.. it's SOOO much better. then i took a nap.. until me and Caleb went to our bible study.


So.. yup.. that was about the jist of my weekend.. It was quite fun and relaxing.. ( not a whole lot of homework got done though.. oops.. lol ) I think it was a weekend well spent.... and was pretty cheap too..
( oh.. and so this picture.. i thought was just super cute!)

Well.. have a WONDERFUL week... and until next time..
