My First Basketball Game

The hubs and I are going to see Lakers vs Boston game 5 of the finals in Boston on June 13th and I am estatic about going. This will be my first NBA game and It's going to be a great, mostly because I am excited that the hubs gets to see his all time favorite team play THE LAKERS! I just get excited seeing how excited the hubs is about going, it just puts a smile on me face and I know we are going to have such a great day just the two of us. A millions things are crossing my mind like what am I going to wear and I wonder if the Kardashians are going to be there lol haha but nothing basketball related! Such a girl! I never thought I'd be so excited to go to a basketball game!




P.S. I will definitely update you on what I am going to wear!

UPDATE!
 
Okay! So I've come to the conclusion that I just can't see myself all decked out in Laker gear lmao! So I'm thinking maybe something like the outfit I put together in the above picture is what I'll end up wearing ...although I will sport a flag or something of that sort on game day!

Today we started shopping for our place...the hubs has given me full control over decorating our place he says "lets see how good you really are" ..so I'm on a mission to prove to him I am good lol So like Carrie Bradshaw said in SATC2 "I've been cheating on fashion with furniture," I will definitely be giving up fashion for furniture for a while. lol

After much complaining the hubs has finally agreed to let me do his office chocolate brown and white,  a very clean and crisp looks (originally I wanted a light teal and brown but that wasn't gonna happen) so brown and white it is. I'm excited to do a nice clean look that hopefully he will love  and enjoy for some time ...unless we have to turn it into a nursery lol

July 1st it is!

As I mentioned in my last post July 1st was going to be the day we moved into a place no matter what....After much searching we finally found a place. Just yesterday the hubs and I signed our lease for a 2 bedroom condo in Fairfield that we are super excited about. It's a cute private condo with a eat in kitchen, living room, two bedrooms and a bathroom. We also have a small deck and cute back yard that we are excited to use to host our first BBQ this summer. So the packing, cleaning and shopping begins!

Here are a couple of pics of the place that the owner posted on the listing.
Can't wait to get in there and decorate everything to my liking.
