May 26th

This past weekend was really busy!

Friday, Brandon played poker all night, and I caught up on some homework, went to dinner with some friends, and then saw Night at the Museum 2. I wasn't feeling all that great, but I went anyway. It was a cute movie. Saw it in IMAX....nice.

Saturday, we went to the DIA with Brandon's mom and dad. Some parts were really cool, some parts were really boring. And it was crowded! But after the DIA, we went and got Korean food at Wasabi. Then we went to Babys R Us, Came home, did more homework, Brandon played more poker, and Bentley did some sleeping.

Sunday, we woke up, put the Tiger's game on TV, started some laudry, and then met Carolyn (our realtor) to look at some houses. We saw 7 houses total, and we liked about 4 of them. We're starting to get really excited to move into our own house. It's still about 2 months away from now, but we've already started moving stuff into the spare rooms to make it easier when we do move!!
After that, we went to Best Buy to pick up a camcorder for Eric and Jasmine. It was a lot of fun playing with all the cameras! We picked out a blue, flash memory one and called it a day. Then we headed over to Brandon's parent's house for the night to help get ready for the luncheon on Monday. I had a lot of fun playing with Anya and Asia and helping prep everything for Monday.


Memorial Day started with the parade. Brandon, I, Amanda, Mike, Anya , Asia, and Bentley all went downtown to watch the parade. It was hot out, and I got reallllly sunburnt (even though I was only out there for an hour!!) We got to see Eric, Jasmine, and of course, Cashman! walking in the parade. Bentley was very well behaved and even got to play with some other dogs that were there. After the parade, we went back to the house to finish getting everything ready. All-in-all, the party went really well, and Jenevieve is extremely cute. She is really LITTLE!!!!!! The pictures just dont do her justice! :)

May 22nd

Friday. Party time. Or time to grind the online poker. I got in 8k hands of poker and Allison went to see the new Museum movie with some friends. I had a huge annoying downswing in my first hour but came back and made a small profit on the day. I think the 20oz Delmonico and two beers was what turned my luck around. Tomorrow we have an actual museum plan, Sunday some house-looking, and Monday a party for my new niece. Hopefully I can sneak in another 10k hands this weekend.

What a Lonnnng Night!

Hi all, Bentley here!

So, today.. after i scratched Tony and took a nice nap, I told my people that I wanted to go to see my friend Brooklyn.

Brooklyn is a boxer and she's afraid of a lot of people, especially men. My mom adopted her from the same rescue league that I lived at for a few weeks. Brooklyn used to live with my mom in her apartment, but Brooklyn didn't like my mom's roommates, so she sent her to stay with Grandma B. Grandma B decided she likes Brooklyn too much to let her live with us now, but she's allowed to come over for sleepovers. Here's a picture of us just chillin'

Then we played outside while my parents hung out in the hot-tub. After that, we hung out with Zac and Elaina. They made some vanilla cupcakes, and Brooklyn and I got to eat what they dropped, SUCKERS! I showed off my new talent "beg" and got even more cupcake! Wooo! After I was done stuffing myself, we got in the car to leave. We rolled the windows down so I could feel the cool breeze in my ears. On the way home, we stopped at Taco Bell. They don't serve my usual fav, chicken nuggets, but I did get some dry food when I got home.

I'm pooped.

Bored...

I've been sleeping all day while I should be outside! There are squirrels outside!

And then tony came over. Scratched Tony up. Now it's nap time.

This is what I look like now:

So it's nice out, and I'm sitting inside watching Jeopardy. That's about it.

May 21st --2009

So, I've had many blogs in the past 6-10 years, with my first one starting when I was just 12. Trust me, you don't want to see it; it's filled with bad grammar, silly crushes, and pictures of me smack dab in the middle of puberty. I have a website: www.Allisoncrosley.com but it's under construction right now, since I'm trying to set it up so it's accessible for my students when I start TA'ing at Eastern Michigan University next year. It's a bit intimidating, because no one really uses HTML for websites anymore, so I'm feeling really lost mostly.

Brandon on the other hand, well.. we've only know eachother since 2007, so I'm not sure what his blogging history entails. Right now, he's on the www.brandoncharnesky.com kick. He's been posting video blogs a couple times a week and uploading interesting poker graphs.

Bentley is a dog. He has no blogging experience, but he is cute.


I'm going to try to update this blog (and get Brandon to, too!) a few times a week. We're usually pretty busy, but whenever anyone asks us what we've been doing, we draw a blank and say "Nothing, really". Hopefully this way we can document what we do, before we forget we did it! ;)

To start us off, here are some recent pictures....
