Our First home!!















Here's some pics of our house we got in November. Chris and I have been living with my fam for way too long! We moved in thinking it would be a few months which turned into almost two years. Chris luckily has had a stable job for a bit now in this bad economy to where we could get into a house. We took advantage of the tax credit and bought in November- although it's extended now. We found a foreclosure in Silverstone Ranch. I wasn't to fond of it compared to the other houses we were looking at, but it wasn't in the best shape. Anyway we knew it had good potential so we went for it. With lots of time an effort we got it looking pretty good so far. We ripped out all of the nasty carpet and floors. We replaced vinyl with nice tile and gave the house a paint job. Some of the paint is a little crazy but we'll make it work. I love decorating, so my new thing is finding cute stuff as we get more money to add to the house. I love the modern contemporary look. I still have a lot I want to do, but man oh man am I grateful to have our own home! I still would love to get nice blinds, landscape our backyard and add to our front, and get more decorations for the house. It will all come in time, but I love being on our own again! Next is babies! J/k not for a bit...

Halloween 2009


I know I've been such a slacker!! Facebook is so much easier and less time consuming but I figured I would update briefly in case anyone reads these anymore. Yes our Halloween was interesting this year. It was a last minute do what we could find thing to go to a party. It was fun. I was a Mexican and Chris was Lady Gaga!
