QT

I just love spending time with the hubs because him and I never really get a whole lot of QT because he works nights and I work during the day! It hasn't really been an issue other then him and I only being able to see each other a couple hours a day. So when we have a weekend together we try to spend as much time as we can together and try to do as much as possible. This past weekend was one of his weekends off were we could actually relax since we moved into our place. We already had a prior commitment to go to a party on Saturday but we left Sunday just for the two of us. It was hubs idea to make Sunday a Lazy Sunday by watching movies all day and making homemade pizza :)...we tried to sleep as late as Miley would let us, which really wasn't late at all something like 6:30-7:00 am sounds about right. Darn Dog!!!!!!!!  Hubs went to the grocery store picked up something things and came back home Pizza dough and 3 movies. Around noon we started preparing our pizzas and about an hour later we enjoyed them and started watching our movies! It was the most relaxing Sunday him and I have had in a long time and I loved it! <3

My make-up related comment is that Ms. Christina did my make-up for my wedding :-)

Also, I'm a sucker for lip gloss..seriously, I have about 30 of them, and it's probably what i would put the egiftcard toward."

2 anxious 2 wait !!!

As I mentioned before my brother and his wife are expecting their first child. At first the both of them agreed not to find out the sex of the baby ... They were pretty set on not finding out and we were kind of bummed lol but respected there decision. Well I guess they were anxious and couldn't not wait any longer (I was elated to find out they gave in)... So today they went for an ultrasound to find out !!!!! And it's a GIRL!!! Which I'm super excited about because who doesn't love a little princess !!! Hopefully soon Carley Lynn will have a cousin lol !!! Baby fever is running wild in the Mendenhall house lol !!! I guess you'll just have to keep reading to find out if we have any exciting news !!! Okay not just yet but we will surprise you all and catch you off guard!!

Yay !!! Titi Vicky can't wait for her little niece !!!

Home Sweet Home!

Move in this weekend went smooth, almost everything is set and I love it! It really feels like our home just the two of us and our puppy Miley, who by the way seems to love that she can roam free around the house and plop her little butt anywhere and just knock out for hours! lol I'm so happy and excited about our home and what's next! :)

 Here are a few pictures of the place as we started getting the rooms together.
