HappyHomeOwners.

So i have to say that one of the most satisfying, awesome things Kris and I have
done is buy a house.
There is just something about a "home" that we lOvE.
We have lived here now for about 4 months and we are loving it.
Great neighborhood, Great house.
We are pretty new to this whole home/house owner thing, and
are learning a few things.
For example, a house makes wayyyyy more noises than an apartment.
I cant tell you how many times i wake up in the middle of the night and start to freak out cause
i think someone is in our house and it is just our water heater or Sparkletts machien or Diesel dreaming. haha 
Kris thinks he married a crazy lady because im so paranoid.
Another thing we are learning about it WEEDS.
Man o man are they a pain in the butt.
So this past month we have been working on getting all weeds killed or pulled and
make our lawn come back to life.
We are spending lots of time at Home Depot and the Nursery
right by our house. Who knew there was so much to know about a lawn?
Im not sure how my parents did it to be honest. They had 40 acres,
and Kris and i have a tiny itty bitty piece of grass. haha
My next project is to plant flowers and new palm trees in the little ledge
on the back wall of our yard.
{where kris is in the pictures below}
i have to say it is looking pretty good now.

I know its pretty lame to be posting about our yard, but we have
worked so hard to get it too look awesome.  We still have a little patch to work on
 but we are almost there.
:]
Also, this last weekend we installed a 10 ft RV gate instead of our little 5 ft gate!
Now we can put our trailer back there!
This is another one of our projects. We arent finished with it yet, we are going to change out
the wood and stain it.
So excited.

So happy.
So grateful we have a beautiful home.
Especially at our age.
We are so blessed.

Flowers+Hubby=happywife.

So my amazing husband bought me Flowers yesterday
for no reason.
Just cause he loves me.
He is so wonderful.
And to top it off... he got me my favorite flower.. lilly!
My house smells so good because of them.
I have to admit, this might be one of my favorite flower arrangments.
So gorgeous.



I have always loved flowers.
One day i will open up my own Flower Shoppe.
I have the name picked out and everything.
Someday.

:]

Our Best Friend.

Diesel is defiantly our best friend. 
Kris and i could have a horrible day at work.. and it all changes when we come home.
We are greeting by Diesel everyday and he is just always so happy and ready to give us love. 
He is now 5 months old and he has the funniest personality. 
Everywhere we go in the house... Diesel follows.
I will be cooking dinner and he will lay right by my feet by the oven.
I will simply walk from the bedroom to the kitchen and he will get up from a dead sleep walk where i go and lay down where i end up stop walking. haha 
If one of us goes to the bathroom he follows us in the bathroom and lays by the door.
{i know probably too much info but it is just so cute}
This was Diesel today.
Kris went to the bathroom and he waited till he got out. haha
We took Diesel out right by our house to play fetch with him today.
He is so cute.

My boys.


Love him.

Got it from my mama.

Happy Birthday Mom!!!

Today is my moms birthday!!
She turns...well...umm.... 34?
{that is what she says her age is haha}

I love my mom so stinkin much. She is so halarious.
I have always been one of those girls who love love to be around her parents and think
the world of them.
Kris and i in high school would go on double dates with them all the time and we still do!
My mom is incredible.
I get alot of who i am from her.
She is gorgeous, funny, smart, strong-willed.
She is one of my best friends and the best mother a girl could ask for.


Happy Birthday Mom!
I love you so much.

xoxo


He is aWeSoMe.

So this last weekend Kris decided to start a project.
About 3 weeks ago we bought a GMC Canyon for Kris's commuter vehicle to and from work.
Kris drives about 50 miles on way every day so we wanted to get something we can run into
the ground with miles that we wont really care about.
Well.... this thing was alllll stock.
If anyone knows my husband, he cant leave anything stock.
hahaha
So... he bought new rims.. tires... lift kit... shocks... floor mats{haha}.
The whole shebang.
It took all weekend... Friday Saturday Sunday but he did it all! The entire thing by himself!
So impressed by him all the time!!!!

So here are the pics.

Weekend.

Can i just say that i LOVE my life.
Im just so blessed to have the life i have and the people who are in it.

Anyways.. So Saturday night i got to babysit my Brothers Kids Tatum and Tripp.
They are so stinkin cute i cant get enough of them.
Tatum has just the cutest personality, and Tripp is just the sweetiest little boy.
He has these binoculars that he used for everything.
The funniest part is he would use them especially when Diesel was around.


he is so cute.
We watched a movie on our air up mattress{which they loved, also notice tripps binos haha}


Love this.
We made a fort.



We made Brownies.
We had fun.

Sunday i went to my first ever NASCAR race with my hubbs!
Kris has always been a NASCAR fan and so when we started dating i got into it as well and we always
talked about going to a race.
welp.. we can cross that off our list of to do's.
It was so much fun!! i love the loudness of it all, the speed, the people were halarious.
Kris kept saying that we will fit right in with all the people there becuase they are all so hick.
Boy was he right.
we saw LOTS of shirtless beerbellys and mullets.
i think one of my favorite things about it was all the proud-to-be-an-american flags everywhere.


Our fav driver is Tony Stewart and we sat right in front of his pit!
His car.
Pits.
annndd their off!
Kris an i always watch these guys on the SPEED channel, so we had to see em in person and try and get on TV. haha

So fun!
Here is a video to show just how fast they are going.

love him.

oh and we got sunburnt. In march. SUNBURNT! haha oh AZ.
