IKEA

Who would have known that those four little letters would mean love for me! I went to my church convocation this past week and Anthony's family reunion was this weekend. Well since we were in Round Rock I said, Hey let's stop at IKEA. That store is absolutely awesome!!! They have some of everything in there and the prices are so reasonable. The style is very modern. Love the store and we will most def be returning soon.

Remodeling Again..

So the guest bath wasn't good enough. We are starting the remodel process all over again, this time it's the master bath. Not even started good and I can't wait for it all to be over!

In Love

Sometimes in life men are blessed to find the perfect someone that makes every aspect of their life more enjoyable. I do thank God that he has given me my love. I can truly say that God made her especially for me and I am eternally grateful. She is in every thought I could ever have of happiness. Everytime I see her smile it takes my breath away, and I realize how much I love her and what she truly means to me. I am honoured that God chose me to bless with the opportunity to love her. She is truly an "angel". Honey thank you for loving me and supporting me. Thank you for making my life complete.

SURPRISE!

Anthony and I went to my friend Christina's "surprise" engagement party. It was super sweet. Eric put so much thought into it all. The DVD was super sweet and the whole thing was so romantic. Can't wait for the wedding!!

Pretty

It was my cousin's wedding today. We were not able to make it out to Houston though. I heard it was a very beautiful ceremony. Now on to Shayla's wedding. So much talk about weddings make me excited about our 10 year anniversary. We plan to renew our vows in Hawaii then. Beautiful!!

Something New

So I'm starting a new venture in my life. I am going to be a Premier jewelry lady. It is a Christian based organization and a way to make some extra cash. The jewelry is beautiful and you can get it for free!!!! Ask me how!

I am super excited and just believe that God is going to bless this business venture. I hope this can be a start to my master retirement plan!

In the House Finally

Today is a good day. I finally am able to add comments to our blog. I thank my wife for holding it down while I was in limbo. She is a remarkable woman and I love her with all my heart.

WHEN LIFE HANDS YOU LEMONS.....

Throw the lemons back at life!

We've started demo on the master bathroom renovation...well Anthony started. We're waiting for a bid for labor and installation. That's the piece I'm waiting to hear about. This is going to be very nice when we finally get done. Not looking forward to being without a bathroom for any length of time.

In other news, the a/c compressor went out yesterday evening. What's that you ask? Didn't we just replace the furnace LAST SUMMER? Why YES we did. Oh, boy was I frustrated! But Anthony did help me out. There are worst things that could have happened. So to God be the glory anyhow! Pray for my strength and patience. This is HONESTLY an area that I'm asking for assistance in.

I'm SUPER excited about the upcoming vacations and trips. We have the convocation/Waco trip, then Ant's family reunion, then the PR vaca and then my Dad's fam reunion. Can't wait to see Puerto Rico though. Operation Puerto Rico is still in effect.I fell off for two weeks, but I've maintained. I just have about 10 pounds to lose by Aug 2. Can I do it? Of course! I have to cause Anthony issued a challenge. I told him that I was getting discouraged and he said that if I can meet my goal we will go to Greece next spring break! I got this man!

My lil' sister, Shayla is getting married Aug 15. So much still to do. We are going out today to register and pick up her dress. We started putting the invitations together last night...fun stuff. It is going to be a beautiful wedding. We need to find time to fit in a bridal shower and batchlorete party.. whoo hoo!!!

Wonderful Saturday...WAIT, it's only Friday!

It's so GREAT to get up late (7:30) and chill! 3 day weekends are wonderful. I don't have any special plans. Maybe we'll go out for breakfast... maybe take in a movie....maybe just chilax!

And to think...we get to do this all over again tomorrow. I love when Anthony and I are able to just spend time together at home.

We are planning to remodel our master bath. Last spring break we remodeled the guest bath ourselves... IT was a HUGE job and I don't think I want to tackle that again, so we are going to hire folks to tear out build and move things around. I am super excited about this remodel. We had the first piece happen today. The designers came out to measure today...step 1 down.
