Merry Christmas 2009






Christmas is my favorite time of the year, Joe and i love to spend time with our families. The time goes by too fast we have celebrated 3 Christmases together as a married couple!! 2009 was a great year for us, we adopted a beautiful Chihuahua named Macy who we love dearly, we got to celebrate Christmas in our first house and we also got to spend time with our beautiful niece Lily.

I love Christmas time is my favorite time of the year, i love decorate and listen to Christmas music while putting everything together. This year i asked for the Willow tree Angel Nativity Set and i thought maybe i would get a couple pieces and ended up with 4!!! I am very excited to put them together next year!! I have put up a few pictures of our tree and a few decorations we have around the house. I also put one of Lily in her Christmas sleeper and Macy of course!!! I will be posting more of the house soon and then our new years resolutions of course!!!

We hope everyone had safe travels. We were glad Brett and Liz, Jason, Jen and Lily were able to make it back home safe and sound!!

All moved in

Joe and i are finally all moved into the house, i say moved in because it is going to take awhile for us to get everything organized i never realized how much stuff we have.... We are adjusting to living there and Macy is doing well, she has her moments when she is scared but we are loving her up so i am sure she is fine :) She misses Gizmo so we have to schedule some play dates for them to get together and play!! I will post some pictures soon of the things we have done at the house. We are hoping to tackle the basement this spring or after the first of the year!!

Happy Anniversay Hubby!!

Yesterday Joe and I celebrated our second anniversary it is hard to believe we have been married 2 years already :) The weather is not the same as it was the day we got married, we had a beautiful day!! 74 degrees light breeze, partly cloudy and NO CHANGING of leaves already. It is crazy to think the leaves look like October already!

We didn't do too much i had the day off of work and we did a few things for the house, we are still deciding on carpet and paint who would have thought those decisions would be so hard?

We have a couple busy weekends coming up so i will be posting more about those and adding pictures from those events!! Hope everyone is doing great!! Love you Joe!! <3

Holiday weekend

Iknow it has been awhile since i have written anything, but i am not very good at keeping up with this blog thing :) A lot has happened since my last post, the year has been good but also very heartbreaking at the same time, in March we lost a classmate and a dear friend of mine, Burns was a one of kind person he could make you smile even if you were sad, it was a very hard time for many of us, i still think about daily and know he is watching over all of us and keeping us safe. We all miss him dearly...

Joe and i finally decided to get a dog, i know many of you who have known me for a long time can't believe i have a dog, but when you get married we might fold HAHA, we got a Sable and White Chihuhua her name is Macy and she is a hefty 3 pounds, she is the second love of my life and i don't know what i do without her, she is spoiled rotten and has her dad wrapped around her finger!! :) Isn't she cute?


Next in April we got the WONDERFUL news that we are going to have an addition to our family my brother and sister in law are expecting thier first BABY!!!! Its a girl!! So i am sure she is already spoiled and i will keep you updated on her name and when she makes her way into this world!! The due date as today is December 4, 2009. I am thrilled to watch her grow and spoil her!!


My job is going great, we are busy and getting ready to move our offices soon, we are looking forward to having more space as we are out growing what we have now!!!




On July 3rd my sister in law Joe's sister got married at the Pipac Centre in Cedar Falls it was a beautiful wedding and the rain held out for them, as they got married on the terrace, it just sprinkled a little bit. We met for breakfast in the morning before we got our hair done at the Village Inn in Cedar Falls, Mary Jo (my mother in law) was very nervous about the rain so she keep a St. Joseph figurine close my her side at all times!! :) ( i wish i had a picture but i don't)
