Going to the Chapel....

And we're gunna get MARRIED! Dave and I are engaged....for those who haven't heard. He proposed Friday night in Traverse City. We are both so excited and overwhelmed at the same time. where do we start planning? so many ideas, thoughts and emotions are running through our minds....but for the time being we are sitting back and enjoying this amazing time in our lives. We look forward to walking down the isle and saying our I Do's. I'll keep you posted on wedding plans :)

Jenna Kananen....future Jenna Lassila

hmmmm

I'm proud of myself. I've been on here a few times so far this week, and i'm stoked. it's been my little goal to get on here and blog at least a few times a week. we'll see how this pans out once school starts into full swing.

between work and school..i hope i have time to sleep. this morning while i was looking at my week ahead, i suddenly felt very exhausted. i get a day off next saturdsay! i'm very excited.

Right about now, i'm looking forward to my vacation...guess i'll have to wait until december :(

Today involves trying to crack open some homework, visit the parents, then work at two until close. Honestly not looking forward to target on a sunday...i usually stop running around at eight o'clock. but maybe, since it's supposed to be so nice outside, they'll all be at the orchard....lily would like that. yesterday was lily's first day of work at the apple orchard...i heard she had fun. i also heard that her feet were killing her, and she worked so hard. (welcome to the big girl club kid) and today's her second day.

Well, off to get a few things done before my day starts. Hope you all have a nice and relaxing sunday.

I'm impressed

So I do have to say that I am impressed. I've been on here twice in the same month...actually twice in the same week for that matter. I'm pretty impressed. No big deal.

Speaking of big deals...today was my first LAST day of college. If that doesn't put a happy grin on your face, then I don't know what does. So Dave and I went to Ann Arbor to celebrate. We went to Mongolian BBQ and then strolled down the street and enjoyed some dessert at Whole Foods. Dave wasn't too pumped on the idea of going to a grocery store to get dessert, but i totally proved him wrong. He also didn't like the fact that it's an organic grocery store. But lo and behold, i proved him wrong. we indulged in a few different desserts, and felt like total fatties, but so delicious. we bought 3 desserts, i promise you, they were all bite size..well almost bite size : cream puff ( borderline amazing), chocolate eclair ( melted in my mouth) and a chocolate truffler ( that really was bite size.) but anyways, they were sooo good. I'm a fan, and whole foods will be seeing more of me...even though my wallet doesn't think that this is a good idea. but, hey, what's life without a few treats?!

So the weekend's coming up. it's full of homework :( not yet ready for it and work. Dave swung up into town for a few days, and is heading back home on friday or saturday.

So right now, i'm enjoying this wonderul cool night, watching my boyfriend dance in the living room....poor guy, he has no idea what a dork he looks like.

Summer flew by...

So, once again, I didn't surprise myself when I didn't keep up on my blog. Summer has gone by way too fast. I was able to do spring and summer courses, all while doing other summer things such as swim, camp, fish, etc. so taking classes this summer wasn't as bad as i thought it was going to be.

This past month, was filled with tons of camping trips. The first weekend of August, my parents hosted the Thompson family reunion ( mom's side) which was a lot of fun. I was able to catch up with the family, and even meet some new ones. Over 90 people showed up at the house. The weekend after that was followed by a camping trip to Indiana Dunes State Park. We met kelli and dad there, and dave drove over from Ohio. It was a lot of fun, and the water was extremly warm. The weekend after, was our Traverse City trip, with the Lassila Family.

I've felt like such a part timer this month, since almost every weekend i have been out of town. But, now that summer's to an end, it was all worth it. school starts in two days ;( i'm not ready for it, but it's my LAST year! I can not believe it's almost over. So, i'm going to suck it up, and knock it out.
