Hello Again


So, I've decided that since so much has happened to me in the months before I started blogging I'm going to post a picture each time I write of the the things of yester months. Casey and I just got done reorganizing the guest bedroom in preparation for moving our current furniture into it becasue we are getting new furniture tomorrow!!! So exciting! We've decided that we're going for casual luxury in our room. We're using taupe and white with accents of green and burgandy. So far holding it all together it looks really nice we'll have to see what happens when it's really all in there. The bathroom is going to be a continuation of those colors. Okay, so I think the first picture I'm going to post from yester months is going to be from Casey's sister's wedding in May. Casey and his friend Nick did the wedding photography while I got to play Atrsy helper and wedding coordinator. My shining moment was cutting the cake, I have never been so covered in icing and they just kept coming. So finally I just licked my fingers and said owell. The wedding was so cute though, and I can't wait to one day be an Aunty again. Casey's younger brother already has 3 kids but they're out in CA so we don't see them much right now. Speaking of marriage have I mentioned how much work it is to get your name changed?! Casey and I got married in October and he and I are still fixing my name for certain stuff. In any case here's the picture of us from the wedding, it's time to go wander more half built houses and then go to work. See ya lata alliagata!!

My First


Okay, so since blogging seems to be the newest and greatest thing I'm gonna try it. I make no guarantees on how well this will go nor about how exciting it will be, but who knows. I am newly married as of October 15, 2009 to a most fantastic man, Casey Stokes. He and I are also new homeowners as of November 20, 2009. Quite exciting for us we spent our first christmas together in our first brand new house. We are currently working on jazzing up our home a little bit. Finding fun things to make it ours. Our current most spectacular finds are a new bedroom suite and this great little cabinet to help hide dog cookies and all of his man stuff ( wallet sunglasses etc). It's a lot of fun being a new home owner and all the stores love new home owners too. We've got a ton of coupons which makes shopping just that much more fun. We're still trying to figure out the ups and downs of being a married couple, but so far so good. I just gotta teach him to hand over the reciepts so the checkbook can match the bank. LOL. However, it's really nice having a ready made person to give opinions and advice on things. We've got so many cool ideas for our house it's hard to know where to start. I think the next big project is our deck. Casey is tired of gremlin being a mud monster when it rains. He's such a boy wanting to be dirty all the time. Gremlin is also officially one year old, Cinnamon and Sugar are old fogies at 5 and 4 respectively. So, I guess that will be it for now, but hopefully that's a pretty good intro into our life.
