No News Yet...

Sorry for the delayed blog posts! Life has been just totally crazy! The news that I posted about is really nothing that exciting or important and is on hold right now anyways! haha.. Didn't want people to think the news is anything CRAZY!!

Since I don't have too much time right now I will leave you with this cute little engagement video! I totally downloaded the song from the video right away and think this is just too cute!! The company is Belvedere Films.


Happy Halloween and Have a great weekend!!!

No Time..

You would think being on an ISLAND I would have plenty of spare time to blog! Well lets just say it's day 8 of my 10 days here and I am just posting!

Let me just say, I do NOT want to come home! The pace and life here is so different! The first couple of days I was so jittery and I finally told Ty that I had to go for a walk to let off steam. What steam you ask? I guess my U.S. steam! Here everything is Island Time, which is really whatever time you want it to be. Back in the U.S. I am used to answering to everyone within 24 hours or I have horrible customer service. Everything is very competitive and very fast pace. I know I will miss it, but it is so nice to come here and just LIVE! It does take a few days to get used to the pace, but once you get hooked on the pace it's so hard to go back to the U.S. pace.

We have been pretty busy down here. I have been doing emails as well everyday, so I am trying not to be too far removed from work. Come Tuesday morning I think I will be in shock!
Here are a couple of photos, I have taken A TON here but here is a sneak peak of Grenada.




I come home on Monday night and land in Tampa... Why Tampa you ask? Well my sister and I are going to the Carrie Underwood CONCERT! AHHH! This is thanks to my AMAZING Brother In-Law!!! He knows that his wife and sis in-law really only want to go to ONE concert really really bad and he made it happen for us! We can not wait, pictures to come for sure!
I will be driving back to Orlando EARLY Tuesday morning so I can get back to work and back on campus. It will be a tough week, but this has been well worth the stress of this upcoming week..

Big News to come..... I will post my big news in a few days ;)

X-Ray Vision

If you could see my tummy this is what you would find...



I keep having day dreams about the airport doors opening up and I see my little Ty sitting and waiting for me.... It makes me want to throw up but in the best way EVER! I am not sure how I am going to wait another day......

Happy Columbus Day!

Happy Monday Everyone!

So today we have Columbus Day off for the first time ever! So excited about it because I have A LOT of errands to run to get ready for my upcoming trip to......GRENADA!!

I can not wait to go back and see Ty. He has been stuck in the library constantly and studying non stop so I can't wait for him to have a little break!
One really exciting thing that I did recently was, I bought a Slingbox!
For those who do not know what it is, Its this box that we hooked up to Tyler's parents Cable box in Orlando. Ty can log onto his computer in Grenada and watch anything on the cable box!!! Isn't that incredible! He was so excited and he said it works great, so I can't wait to test it out in Grenada. That was the one thing I kinda missed when I was down there, Cable! Haha!

I am hoping to see more of Grenada this time! We didn't go into town and we didn't go into the rain forest yet either.

I went to Tampa on Saturday to see my sister and go to the opening of the Tampa Bay Lightning Game. It was so fun to watch the Lightning win and the NOLES win too!! Here is my sister and I :) Love her so much!




It's Hard to see from this picture, but during an intermission they had these little tiny guys come out and play a quick game. It was SOOO precious!! When they came out on the ice, the very first little tiny guy fell straight on his little face :( Someone had to come pick him up, it was so sad!


Well its now off to do a few emails :) and then run errands for my upcoming trip! Have a great Monday everyone!

Hi Pongo....

Happy Tuesday :)
I am sitting here after eating like a baby for the last two days! I can only eat soft food, for some reason my jaw is messed up and now I can't chew!! Isn't that fabulous :)

Anyways A couple of fun things I wanted to share with Pink Lovey.

I bought new make up :) I have been using Bare Minerals for about a year now and I really liked it, but if you know me I have A LOT of Freckles... I wasn't super satisfied with the coverage my freckles were getting so when I went to visit two of my best friends. (peeps, my Pink lovey roommates) they suggested Bobbi Brown.
So i went and got ALL new make up and drum roll please...... A CREDIT CARD!! So its a miracle I now have TWO credit cards. I really can't believe it, I feel like I just want to keep applying for new ones because I really can't believe it. The feeling that I get when I am accepted is UNREAL!!! I am just kidding about applying to a bunch but I wish i could :)

So I really like my new Bobbi Brown make up, it is a bit heavier than I am used to but It has A LOT more coverage and I feel like an adult :)
I will keep you posted on it! Here is the cute bag for all of it, and I LOVE IT!!

Second Fun New thing... My good friend Beth uses Tanning wipes sometimes by Kate Sommerville!
They can be found at Sephora. I didn't believe she was using them because she looked so natural, so we went and bought some! I decided one night I was going to use them really quickly to see how they worked, and they worked REALLY well......until I raised my arms.
I sent these pictures to Beth and she said i had to post on PL, so I hope you enjoy these.. It got better the second time I used them..i asked my mom for help and I took my time. I REALLY recommend them. I am pretty fair skinned so I am not sure how they would work on people with tan skin, but I liked them!!!






So the reason this post is called pongo because my sweet sweet boyfriend thinks I should be called Pongo since I am splotchy :)
So don't mind my signature at the bottom of this post that says Kara, until my "splotches" are gone you may call me Pongo....

P.S. I am trying to figure out what color I should make the font, I don't like it Black.. So bare with me :)
