Update...

I promised more of an update... so here it is! We are expecting our first bundle of joy next April. I have been feeling great so far, so just praying for an uneventful pregnancy. We are very exciting about adding to our faimly. I will post some pictures of our little "peanut," as it has been called as soon as we get some good ones that actually look like a baby.

Delay...

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. Life has been crazy around here. The last time I updated was after our first trip to New York in July. In August, we went back to New York, except that this time it was to Buffalo for Rob's friends wedding August 8. We had a good time. I was able to go to Niagara Falls with Rob and I will post pictures soon, I promise. We had a good time celebrating Stephanie and Tyler's wedding. Three weeks after that, we went to Chicago to visit my best friend ever, Camie. Camie finally moved back to the city so we went for a long weekend. We got to eat real Chicago pizza, yummy!!! We got to see Wrigley Field and the Cubs game, where they beat the Mets, which is always fun for me!! We also got to see the bean and walk downtown for little while. It was great to see her and I miss her dearly, she needs to move down here pronto... I will post pictures from everything shortly. I don't have any pictures with me as I am house sitting and have been for the month, I am done next weekend. I will be glad to be home with my husband and animals. I miss the chaos that was my life. I am super exited about next weekend. Not only is it my one year anniversary but I get to go the UGA v LSU game with some great friends Stephanie and Scott.
More updates to come soon!

New York, New York







This past weekend, Rob and I went to New York for his best friends 30th birthday party. It was a blast. I got to be a tourist on Saturday for a bit and we went to the Empire State building. That was awesome. Here are some pictures from the trip.

My Birthday...




For my birthday, Rob surpirsed me with a surprise party at this great restaurant Cinco in Cumming. It was a blast. Thanks to Kristen and facebook, Elizabeth and Tisha were able to make it. Thanks again for a great night all!

Bailey's New Collar

So my exciting day yesterday was that I got my puppy Bailey a new collar. I know you are jealous, but try not to be. And it is a UGA one. I was very excited. i was wanting to get him one for awhile, but I was waiting for him to be almost full grown before I did. He is 8 eight months now, and they vet says he wont get much bigger. I was very excited when I made my purchase. It was at this great store in Alpharetta called Tumblers and Totes. They have everything from cups to napkins, to dishes and flags. It is a great store, and I have to thank my husband for finding it and telling me where it is. I love it! Unfortunately, Bailey will not sit still long enough for me to get a good picture of him wearing it. I will try harder though and post one soon.

Casino Night!



Last night we went to a casino party for out friends dad. It was a blast. I forgot how much fun playing with fake money was. At the end of the night, I had $14,300 in chips, too bad it wasnt real money, that would have been awesome. I played blackjack most of the night. This is a picture of all the ladies, I will try to post more once I get some more from Keri.

Celebrations all around






In one night, we celebrated Jamie Len and Steve's engagemnt, her birthday, and our friend Brice's birthday. It was one interesting night. We dont go out that often so I forgot what it looks like when people get crazy drunk and dance with random people. Very interesting and glad that I am not single anymore.

Cruise

In March, we went on a cruise to the Mexican Rivera. We had a blast. We wen to Cabo and did some whale watching and Rob went para sailing... too scary for me. Then we went to Mazatlan where we just did some shopping and sight seeing on our own. The last stop was Puerta Villarta(spell?) where we went on a tour to see little towns that were only accessible via boat, but they were worth it. We also went snorkeling at one of the towns, which was ok, the water was very murky. Here are some pics from the whole trip. Enjoy!!

Pets

Here are a few pictures of Bailey, wow he has grown so much in the last months since we got him. And the other picture is Busgy the cat sleeping in the sink, I like to say "fat cat in a little sink". For all who get that reference, you rock.

Delay...

Sorry for the delay in updating the blog, but things have been crazy around here. Work is so very stressful and life in general is crazy. Good news is though that my mom is almost done with chemo, only one more treatment on Monday. That is very exciting. Also exciting that I am going to be an aunt again to a sweet little girl in July. Very exciting. I promise to update more often once life gets back to normal, if that can ever truely happen around here.
No offers yet on the house, but it is still on the market. Just trying to see if there are any nibbles.
Hope everyone has a great week!

Update

Things have been a little crazy for us lately. After the holidays were over, and things got back to normal, we decided to put our house on the market to see if there were any nibbles. It offically goes on today, so we will see how things work out with that. We are excited about the possibilty of a new home, but somewhat scared that ours will not sell, as there are 7 for sale in our little strip of the neighborhood. Please pray that we can seel our house and get that dream house that we found, cause with the market the way it is right now, we will need a miracle to sell ours.

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and a great new year.

New Puppy!





This is the newest addition to our family, our new puppy Bailey. We joined our family November 30th, and we cannot get enough of him. Having a puppy at home has for sure tested our patience, but at least I came out with more. Below is a picture of Bailey and his sister, Paisley. Paisley is our friends puppy, and she inspired us to get Bailey. Bailey and Paisley have play dates every coupls of weeks which is fun to see him playing with a dog, instead of the cat(even though that is funnier to watch).
