August according to Instagram

Hi. Hello. Aloha. Bonjour. Hallo. Howdy. 

I'm truly sorry I haven't been blogging.. part of me wants to, and then sleep typically takes over or I just don't even think about it at all. It's been one crazy month, but I'll give you the short version right now... then actually posts about all this later. I miss you guys. Thanks, Danielle for commenting and saying you missed me, it truly meant the world to me and just so you know.. I miss you, too! 

Kay, let's explain the pictures above. 

• After I finished my second session of summer school at the beginning of August, there was a lot of laziness in the Ross household. Exhibit A, Muggles the laziest beagle of them all. 
• Like I mentioned in my last post (from three weeks ago..ouch), I took a trip to Dallas with my parents for a bit of back-to-school shopping. It was lots of fun, and a much needed break from College Station!
• Curt and I visited the George Bush (the first one) Presidential Library on a whim. I've never been and seeing as I pass it to go to school most days, I thought that was pretty sad for having lived here for three years and never taking the time to visit. It was extremely interesting and I really enjoyed getting to know the history of the Bush family! 
• My favorite edition to my closet has to be my new elephant shirt, which I wore when we went to the Bush Library!
• Curtis and I took a long weekend to Galveston with his parents. It was lots of fun! We swam in the ocean, ate lots of delicious seafood, took a ghost tour, and had a nice relaxing break for our mini-break from school. 
• I chopped off about 7 inches of my hair, and I'm loving it! Although.. it does get greasier faster. Super annoying. Could be the constant 100* weather too though. 
• I had a period where I walked the beagles on campus every evening for a few days. I love walking past Kyle Field.. and am super-de-duper excited for football season! Gig 'em!
• School started last Monday.. luckily, I only have it four days a week! :)
• Like I mentioned above, I'm super excited for football season (I can rant and rant forever about it), so Curtis thought it'd be fun to go to a radio show for dinner. Our head coach was there talking, we had awesome food, but there were awkwardly loud drunk people too.. not so fun. 
• I'm taking a digital photography class this semester, and I could not be more excited. I've just finished my first assignment, woot. 
• Saturday we played our first football game. It wasn't pretty on the defensive side. It definitely didn't have a lack of controversy around it. But, I loved every second of it.. even if I thought I might pass out from the heat at certain points. Oh, and I love Johnny Football, ESPN can shove it. 
• Curtis and Muggles doin' some homework. 

Have a great week lovelies! You can follow me on Instagram @kristina_ross14.

Oh hai.

Sorry for the lack of posting, I've seriously had overload central going on lately, which means no blogging. Although, there are definitely times where I have so many ideas running through my head.. and then other times, like now, were I have no clue what to post about. I haven't been taking outfit photos, August in Texas does not mean the end of summer, it means whatever you do.. don't go outside, and please, please, please don't let your air conditioner go out or you may just die. I was happy that the highs were going to be in the mid-90's the other day, but then that was ruined by a heat index of 106, so yeah, no, outfit photos, sorry guys. PS - I hate summer.

I did make a trip to Dallas this past weekend with the padres while Curtis was busy studying for his final, and I'm pretty content with my shopping haul. I stuck to my guns and only bought tops {and one pair of shoes, sorry, I can't stay away from them}! Plus, a ton of stuff for around the house at IKEA. I've got one more final to go in my statistics class and then this summer session is over.. oh, and I suffered my way through Public Speaking and I couldn't be more pleased that it's all over now! ha. But, the real deal starts back up in a couple of weeks.. not too excited, but it'll be much easier knowing I got 3 courses out of the way this summer. Oh, and the fall semester is always my favorite because it means football is here! Our first game is barely over two weeks away and I'm pretty ecstatic about the season {just no one mention Johnny Football, I'm tired of hearing about his autograph}. 

Anyway, here's a few photos from the weekend! 

1. View of the Dallas skyline as we were driving in. I'm not gonna lie, I much prefer Dallas to Houston. First, my favorite baseball team plays a few miles west of there in Arlington {woo Rangers!}. Second, its not awful and humid like Houston. Third, it has a funky vibe in certain areas.. not as much as Austin, of course, but still pretty cool. Fourth, the traffic isn't quite as crazy as Houston, a city in which I literally was clutching the steering wheel for dear life when I first drove in the chaos they call 5 o'clock traffic. Fifth, did I mention the lack of intense humidity? 

2. Some storm clouds were rolling in after our trip to IKEA, so naturally I whipped out my iPhone to snap a picture.. I took my camera on the trip, but I got kind of lazy and didn't feel like taking it out ever.

3. We ate at my absolute favorite restaurant, Razzoo's. Seriously, I need more Cajun in my life. Aka, College Station or Waco, build a freakin' Razzoo's. 

4. First trip of the morning on Saturday we went to Buffalo Exchange, where I found this awesome American Apparel dress, but alas, it fit really oddly in the back.. which of course made it not fit at all in the bosom section. I was so disappointed you guys.. The joys of boobs, they truly aren't all they're cracked up to be. I did get that dotted tee though, seeing as I can't get enough of polka dots lately.

Also, if you'll notice my Beatles phone case my lovely husband found for me. I've been wanting one forrrrreeeeverrrr, but was not gonna pay $25 for one. He found it at Target on clearance for $7.50. Yay for husbands that pay attention! hehe

How was everyone's weekend? 

xo,

Kristina
