The New House

Well...it's official. We are homeowners. Friday (my birthday) we closed and got the keys, then spent the rest of the weekend cleaning! I'm completely tired and sore...but it's so worth it! It really does look better just by cleaning the windows, siding on the front porch, and the garage. Even the cobwebs are gone in the corners! Now it's on to painting....stay tuned for an update on that.

(This picture is old...those aren't our cars and the landscaping doesn't look quite like this anymore only because it's dead...but you get the idea!)

Happy Anniversary

Happy 2nd Anniversary to us! :-)
We decided to celebrate by going to Martini and having what turned out to be an AWESOME dinner! I would recommend it to anyone. I of course had salmon, and Scott had filet. Yum.
The entire night I swear all I wanted to do was lick my plate. (but didn't of course)
The rest of the night was pretty low key, we're trying not to spend a lot of money because we've got this house to pay for!

Here's to more great years ahead....can't wait to see what the future holds.

Happy Birthday Scott!

It's my husband's 30th birthday!!! At the last minute I decided to get him an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen since all of my cake decorating supplies are packed. Yummy! He loved the pirate theme...it was quite a hit.

Free night

Got a great letter in the mail today! After we stayed at the Best Western in Zanesville for my brother's high school graduation, I put my business card in their bowl at the desk. They did some kind of raffle...and I won a free night's stay sometime between now and next September! :-) That's about a $75 discount! Too bad it's right down the street from my parents house...cause we always stay with them. oh well...it will be nice to use!!

The House

After months of searching...this is it...our new house!!

Granted...it's not officially ours yet, but it will be!

We are currently waiting on the title to be transferred, and then closing, and then and only then will the keys be ours!!

The waiting is killing me....good thing I've got a ton of things to pack! (anyone have boxes? I could use them!!)

More furloughs

Hmmm....what to do with my 5 additional days that I have to take off?? oh yeah...I don't get paid for them.

We have a lilly!
