back from the books.



Woweeee! It has been over a month since I've last posted on this blog...and during that month there has been so much going on, just thinking about it makes my head spin!  But, here's a run down of how I've been spending the last several weeks outside of the blog world...

...Buried my head in books and studied my heart out... 

...stressed out about school...

...started my new job at Children's hospital & medical center... 

...met some new friends and spent time with some old friends... 

...hosted an amazing Stella & Dot trunk show... 


...had an amazing zoo date with my boyfriend... 


...volunteered...

...went on an adventurous road trip... 
which started off in Iowa



...through Illinois then to Indianapolis for GENCON 2012!




bombshell woman miniature.  she rocks. 



This was my very first "Con" and it was really neat! I had no idea what to really expect from this and luckily I finished school just in time for the drive to Indiana for the Saturday of Gen Con.  The only part I was bummed about was that they ran out of those cool lanyards you get with your name tag!! We stayed most of the day here walking around, trying out some games, and just people watching.  It's the most interesting people watching to date!  I loved how everyone who dressed up really played the part of the character they were dressed up as.  The miniature models for games like warmachine were expertly painted I can only imagine how tedious and time consuming it takes to get these miniatures just perfect.   After GenCon we headed over to the Indianapolis institute of art.  The actual museum was closed but the gardens were open to the public.

After exploring the grounds of the Museum of Art in Indianapolis we jetted off to Chicago for more fun and adventure.  I have a ton more pictures to share with you so I'll post again tomorrow morning more of our trip to Chicago.  

our first night in Chicago

It took about 4 or 5 hours to get to Chicago from Indianapolis and we were both tired and going on 5 hour energy drinks.  I'm so happy to be back to blogging again and sharing with you pictures and fun of what I've been up to.  Looking forward to catching up with my friends here and I will be back tomorrow for my Chicago post!
