Luke-isms, Horses, and other stuff

It is official...my nephew knows me!

The other day Luke was looking at the picture of Michael and me on my mom's fireplace, and saying RAH-RAH!

Mom and Christy had an end of radiation party for Grandma Hammond. Luke stood by the stairs looking up at my old room and kept saying An Rah-rah. He had said if to me on the phone a very few times, but it is great to feel loved, by him!

Luke is obsessed with balls. It is his favorite word. The other night Nick & Christy were at Target and so were mom and dad. Mom and Dad took Luke through the ball aisle. He loved it! When they left Luke noticed the balls outside of target (you know, the red concrete ones) He screamed "BAH!!"

We bought a ball for Luke for easter, I cannot wait to give it to him!

As many of you have read, I loooove cats. I miss Smokey, and we cannot have a cat in our apartment. However, about 3-4 weeks ago Michael and I found some horses at Purdue. They are just hanging out in a field behind the vet school. We have taken to walking around campus and bringing both horses a carrot every time we go down there. It is so nice to get some animal attention, and to walk. I will probably end up missing the horses when we leave in 2010.

Michael and I are coming home tomorrow for Easter weekend. I am hoping to meet Lincoln on Saturday, and do a little bit of shopping with my mom. Michael and I are saving our easter baskets until we get back home. It should make leaving home a little easier knowing that I have fun stuff waiting at home!

Pictures from our visit home!

Before we left Michael and I went for a walk and found some horses by Purdue!

Sunday we had lunch at Rocky's with Mom, Dad, Nick, Christy, Luke, Deb, Mike and Jordan!

Saturday Mom, Christy, Luke and I went on an all day shopping excursion! We had so much fun!

Cameos

I love Cameos. Necklaces, earrings, lapel pins, bracelets, basically anything with a cameo on it. But I am increasingly surprised that no one my own age seems to know what a cameo is. So, I thought I would educate anyone my own age who reads this and isn't aware of what a cameo is.

I guess I love them because 1. They are vintage looking, 2. They are somewhat hard to find, and finding a new one is quite a feat.

Which brings me to this weekend. I called Grandma to see if she was home from her radiation treatment yet, and when I got to her house she showed me the pink cameo candle holders that she had gotten for me!

Friday I went to Target with Michael's mom. She bought me the cutest t-shirt complete with you guessed it...cameo!

Saturday I went shopping with Mom, Christy, and Luke. While I was in one of the stores I found a black belt with a cameo on the buckle!
