16 Day Countdown to Moving Day

I am so excited only 16 more days until we move. Last night we had the chance to go in it again. I know I have seen it like 20 times already. All we have left is packing and few lose ends. Cross your fingers that we have nice moving weather. Matt recruited a lot of great help so it will go fast. Boy is the time flying. It will be here before we know it.

Movies in the Park

Last night Matt and I went to the movies in the park to see Charlotte's Web. It was a really cute movie, but I am terrified of spiders. Every time she was on screen I had to turn away. By the end of the movie I was just sure spiders were crawling all over me. Well we started to walk to the car and I took a sip from my drink and guess what there was a spider right on my mug. I flipped out. I kid you not. It was the funnest thing. The movies in the park was one of the coolest things I've been to in Plano. I was suprised on how many couples our age that were there. Next time I'm going to have to stop by Weirs to grab some popcorn.

Long Time, no blog part 2

Ok, so I'm an awful blogger apparently. Everything is finally getting back in place. Let me get everything caught up:

First, Matt was in a small accident. He is doing well. Had a few cuts, but they are healing with the thanks to coco butter. His car on the other hand not so much. It was totalled. We were planning on buying a new car in a year. So, it kinda worked out nice b/c we received more money than if we would have traded it in. Last night we bought our first car. We decided on the four door Jeep Wrangler. I adore it. I'm so nervous to drive it. It feels so cool to pick out the exact car you want and buy it with your own money. A since of pride comes over ya. The four wheel drive will come in handy when we go to New Mexico and Colorado. Two of my favorite places. Some day I hope to have enough saved where I can ski every winter there. I'm not a granola eating kind of nature person, but I do love granola and nature. It's nice to get out of the city every now and then.We do have a nature preserve here. It's really cool. My sis, Ash, and I went there twice last week. A few weeks ago I tried the bike trail I did when I was a kid. Man was that crazy.

So, update on the house stuff. We decide not to buy my grandmas. Instead we are buying a home more north. Closing is on Nov 1st and I can't wait to move. The area we are moving to is really booming right now. I'm so excited about finally having space to have people over. Here are some pics:

Long Time, No Blog

So, it has taken me way to long to blog again. It's even hard to just take a minute to breath lately. I have no idea how we became so busy. I don't even have time to get groceries, my favorite part of the week. I do like having thing to do though. I get so bored watching tv.

Let me catch you up. We had a lovely trip in St. John. Matt and I went to a Jazz place one night. That was a lot of fun. We also went on a million mile hike. We got to see all kinds of ruins. They were gorgeous. Hope you enjoy the slideshow. I wish we took more pictures. Good thing my bro did.

As for the house hunting we are now looking at buying my grandma's house. She recently moved to an assisted living community. We are still looking at a move date in Nov. 124 Days! I am so excited. The house is two neighborhoods down from my parents and three from my sis. It is so ideal. It even has a movie room. So our house will be smelling like popcorn in no time. The house has a lot of work to be done from the foundation to the door knobs. We will have it just in time for football season for parties.

I don't see anything in our life slowing down right now. Last weekend we had my Mom's big birthday bash and a company picnic. This weekend we have Ash's 1st birthday party and then a rough riders game. For the 4th there will be some much needed walking and hanging out. I have gained 7 pounds since I got married. AGHH! I haven't even changed anything. I blame it on stress. I tend to do that for no reason. Anyways, I will have to post some pics later. Tell then.
