It's Monday Already!?

Happy Monday... or if your anything like me as I was pulling into the work parking lot I could have sworn I was just here a few hours ago!

We had a fun and exciting weekend... Friday night was the typical open a bottle of wine, catch up from the week with the hubs and in the bed by 10. Exciting....

Saturday was off to the ballpark for some good ole opening weekend baseball. Our seats were amazing-we sat with the player's moms! Listening to them the entire game was enough fun for me! We absolutely LOVE some baseball games... small perk of living in Atlanta....




Saturday night after the game I think we were both exhausted... we headed to downtown Marietta on the square and ate at the Marietta Pizza Company....

Let me state a quick statement on this.
We dont have kids.... thats fine that you do.
However because you decide to have a group date with all 10 of your kids together
You should probably recongnize and be decently considerate enough to...
Make. Your. Kids. BEHAVE.
All we wanted was a quick quiet dinner and relaxing outside eating our pizza
And these parents don't make their kids mind their manners and they are throwing ranch dressing everywhere, pizza everywhere, yelling, screaming and acting like total brats
I'm sorry... but if you were our child.... you would NOT under any circumstances act like that,
Kids are kids... we get that. But oh my goodness.
You ruined everyone elses dinner plans for that night with any sort of sanity

Onward.... Sunday after church and lunch it was all about spending time at the house and in the yard... hubs worked on the mainly things/ 2 hands required things and I.... ummm took a nap outside :) Ok ok I did other things too...

Pictures in review....

Sweet Grace is going to get her head stuck inbetween those slats one of these days

The start of the garden for this year

Our birdhouse.... Tennessee colors and ready for its first tenant....

Last night after a long day... tiki torches in all... soo peaceful

After dinner relaxing on the deck... love!

My latest clearance find at TJ Maxx.... $5! Putting a bug candle in there for the deck

My latest read... simple easy no thinking required girl kinda book!

And thought I would throw this in there too... Step momma got a new car this weekend.... 2011 Accord. I was impressed!

So there you have it... randomness at its best! I dare anyone to top that excitingness of a weekend :)

PS.... First day of physical therapy today.... well not too much physical mainly the PT moving my shoulder around. So far, so good... or was that just the Hydro pain killer I took this morning?! We shall see :)

You want what you cant have

..... No worries, this is not a very deep in thought kinda post. Really its just me dreaming of the future.... which happens to have to wait a bit longer than most due to the hubs being in school.

Don't get me wrong I am sooo proud of him for following his dream and doing this whole Doctor thing to support us as a family.... yea it sucks....thats an understatement right now. But I keep trying to remind myself this will pay off.

I miss my parents like crazy. I tear up just thinking about missing daddy. I went from seeing him everyday and living with him before the wedding to now once a month if I'm lucky. Its awful. I'm horrible homesick.

And I want to buy a house.... yea. Umm... I'm crazy about house searching and the truth of the matter is we are still 2 years off. Well maybe 1 year and 9 months. I want my own house to paint and decorate and have to be proud of.

On hold for now... I hate waiting....poor hubs puts up with my constant house searching... I know he feel bad... I'd feel bad if I were him too....
JOKING...

Current Love:
It's different.... I think thats why I like it

I LOVE a big open staircase

Big kitchen, big window... sold!

Yes mam that is a double-sided fireplace in the master/ bathroom.I'm dreaming about that tub

Hello MY walk-in closet :)

Sooo there you have it.... my house hunting at its best... and its in our price range...ummm.... to-be price range.

Next subject: soo Jeremy and I are a solid 5 years from kids. We want him to graduate from school, get a house, job, have some money to pay off  his loans and live a little before kids. Now with all that said... I absolutely cannot wait to be a mom. We have all our children's names picked out and I even have thought about nursery ideas.... is that crazy?! I mean seriously....FIVE YEARS from now we are talking....

But I already have my thoughts on what I want *her*- yes I will have a little girl-or I'm praying super super super hard to the Lord I will- nursery will consist of...

I want the big overstuffed rocking chair
I want the 2-tone painted stripes on the wall
I dont like "baby" themed bedding. I want it pretty and sweet
Must have a chandelier in the room
Love the big pretty drapes on the windows
Must have beadboarding on the bottom
The crib- hubby and I are still at large on the style.

There are very few pictures I see I like.... but of the ones I could find:

Beadboard around the bottom half. Love the light blue and monogram on top

I dont know what I like about this bedding.... but its cute

In LOVE with this sleigh crib, and the simple prettiness of this room

The round crib kinda is unique. and I love the theme and colors in this!

How stinkin cute is this for a boy? And the overstuffed chair-minus the color

Mainly like the monogram on the curtains here. Other than that... not so much!


The END!  Hope yall have a fabulous weekend. Tonight is Friday relax night-aka wine and Say Yes to the Dress! Tomorrow is busy busy with the Braves game, security system man and house stuff!! Yay for another 80 degree weekend at home! Loving it!

What I'm Loving Wednesday


Happy Wednesday!! I haven't hooked up lately to What I'm Loving Wednesday so I thought this would be fun!

I'm loving  all my wonderful blog friends that have sent me soo many emails about my last post. I felt soo much better knowing i'm not the only one who gets beyond irritated at their husband and also has a husband that as wonderful as they might be can be downright pathetic at times.... maybe it's a good thing they don't have blogs because I'm sure they would say the same about us... and we all know how that would go over with us :)

I'm loving that per my wedding photographer we *should* be getting our wedding video soon! I am beyond excited to finally see our video- there was soo much going on throughout that day I just want to relive it all and see what all I missed!! Stay tuned...

I'm loving that this Saturday is the Atlanta Braves home opener weekend and hubby and I will be at the game on Saturday!! Not to mention we have some amazing seats :) Bring on the jumbo hot dogs, tomahawk chop, sunshine and ohh yea... baseball! I absolutely cannot wait


I'm loving that Saturday morning we are having a security system company coming out to look at our current system and talk to us about plans and options for monitoring.... Hubby and I's schedules are pretty opposite so this was just help me when it's me and the girls (pups) especially at night. Also for traveling purposes I would just feel better since we always seem to be out of town. It's the little things....



I'm loving that despite this big, ugly, annoying sling and shoulder crap I have going on, the warm weather and fun events coming our way the next few weeks.... it makes this all a lot more bearable....or is the hydro's i'm popping to keep the pain level down... hmmm debateable! :)

Last but not least I'm loving some exciting things that seem to be falling into place for me.... nothing to be revealed quite yet but hopefully good news to come... I'm in need of a few changes while here in Atlanta!

And I guess I'll be nice today and say.... I'm loving you too hubby! Good times and the very few bad you are truly God's gift to me and I love you.... shit head in all :)

Just one of those nights

Two posts in one day for me?! Well Hello April... maybe you will inspire me to get off my lazyness and blog more often...

This is short and sweet....

Everything... and I mean every. single. thing. my husband has said tonight has completely pissed me off. He says he is "joking" I call bull to the %$#*&.

I'm sorry I asked you to dust 4 rooms in our house because after 14 hours of being awake using 1 hand I am exhausted and would like to put your 2 good hands to work for 15 minutes and dust the house.

It's just one of those days when he is such a boy, and doesn't think before he speaks *surprise surprise* and says things that are not nice.

Such is marriage....

Love my husband... more than I could imagine loving someone

But right now he is a shit head.... and not on my good side....

And I needed to vent....

WELCOME to my blog!!

If you don't relate to this in someway please email me and tell me why....

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH


Busy Busy Weekend (long post)

Happy Monday... Well not to happy, but it's Monday. This weekend seemed to go by extra quickly and well I don't feel like I got to enjoy and relax like I like to :)

Friday night was SUPER exciting.... frozen pizza, 1 episode of Say Yes to the Dress and I was OUT like a light by 8:30 on the couch... oopppss.

Saturday I managed to sleep until 10:30... 1. I never do that, 2. that is 14 hours of sleep... must have needed it. Anywho, finally managed to get my laziness out of bed to a beautiful day in Georgia! I absolutely love how much hubs and I are alike when it comes to weekend plans... We went to Lowe's... our favorite warm weather get-away (locally that is) and loaded up on house stuff! The Hot Dog guy was even there which makes my day... but seriously... heaven... spring flowers...

Here is what we ended up with:
Home sweet home





Outside the front door-I wanted something bright

So cute :)

We have had this for several years- it my spike plant I nurture... He lives inside in the winter and has a twin brother! Reminds of a palm tree

This was my Valentines "flowers" instead of one's that died hubby got me this guy! Love him!

More pics to come once we get everything in it's home... we ran out of  fertilizer last night... ooopps!

We also took on a new project.... Hubby's great grandpa used to make birdhouses... lots of them. And now they are floating around in the family. Since we have a massive backyard and lots of birds we requested one. It needed some work... so we repainted the whole thing. Its still needing some touch ups... but here it is as of now.... and yes, orange and white... GO VOLS!


Here are my sweet baby girls this weekend... they LOVED the sunshine and us being outside with them all day... Bailee thinks she is in trouble for some reason when i take a picture of her...(notice the ears)
And my DIVA Grace refuses to look at the camera... so you get her side view!


Saturday night we grilled a ton of meat outside since it was soo wonderful... makes for great leftovers throughout the week! Well... ok.... soo umm Saturday night we were supposed to go to a friends Birthday dinner with a bunch of other people. Yall... don't ask me how but we completely forgot. Like didn't even think about it until Sunday night when i opened my planner and saw it there. I feel soo terrible... anyone else do things like that?! Ugghh...

Sunday was church and followed my "blate", I was soo anxious to say the least. Julie was sooo sweet and we chatted up a storm over lunch at Bahama Breeze.... excellent! I had never been soo it was a fun treat for me. I am soo excited to not only have found a new friend but I swear her and I are soo much alike!


I've looked cuter in my day... but when you have one arm to get ready with you would understand too!!
We are already planning our double "blate" now with the hubbys soon!!

After a wonderful lunch with Julie I headed home to relax on the deck, get some sun, drink some wine and read my book.... instead hubby had other plans. He decided to work on his brakes, mess up the brakes, and we proceeded to have to fix the breaks for the next 2 hours. And by "we" don't get any ideas of me getting dirty and gross under a car... I was the break pumper trying to get the air out of the lines... (whatever the hell that means).... Anywho... I managed to stay super calm(surprising) since hubby was a cussing mess... all is well... minus my Sunday relaxing... I forgave him... after he poured me several glasses of wine and helped with dinner later!

Today was my first day of getting ready by myself for work. Hubs started his new semester... and to say the least it was miserable. I was seriously pukey all morning from the pain of the process of this stupid shoulder. It's not easy.... I am proud of myself... probably should have planned better last night but honestly didn't even think about it until I woke up, in bed, alone, with no husband this morning... that's when the ohh #)*&% how am i going to do this began! Hmmpphhh

Eventful weekend I tell you... well in the life of a married couple living in foreign Georgia that is!

The End!!
