Room #2 is done!!!!

So last night I worked on our guest bedroom and finished. This will probably be it until next week. Tonight John and I are off to a Blues Traveler concert at the Casino Queen. I loved Blues Traveler when I was in high school and I am really excited to see them. Hopefully they will be playing some old school stuff. Then this weekend we are off to Hendersonville to see my family and for my cousin Kacie's baby shower. I am sure there will be plenty of pictures!!!!

Finally - the first pictures of the new place

So this was the Moving Tip on our truck this weekend. I actually think that could provide some great entertainment. Anyway, we are coming along slowly but surely!!! I have the first full room upacked and decorated. Now how wonderful would it be if I could somehow get it done this week. WON'T HAPPEN!!! More pictures to come when other rooms are finished.

 

 

First room finished...Our Bedroom

 

 

 

WE HAVE MOVED!!

Everything is officially out of the apartment (which, by the way, still didn't have power as of yesterday) and in the condo. That doesn't mean that it is upacked and put away though. We have done quite a bit, but still need a few days to finish it all. I will post pictures once out interweb is working at the new place. Hope everyone had a great weekend!!

Storms, moving, and allergies

YUCK!!!!

Ok so Wednesday night St. Louis was hit with what some are calling Hurricane St. Louis (doesn't make sense to me). Anyway, so actually it was a wind gust front, whatever that means. We had winds up to 85 mph. It was crazy. There are trees and power lines down everywhere.

I took pictures but with no power to download them it doesn't to any good. There were 500,000 homes w/out power and now there are only 414,000. You would think that they could do a little better than that in 24 hours. Our apartment and condo were both out, but luckily the condo came back on. So, last night we stayed there in the A.C.

So we are still moving this weekend. Actually we have been doing a lot throughout the week. There are a lot of boxes and clothes already moved. Just the big stuff left for the most part. But...what sucks it that I feel completely crappy. I don't know what it is, but something has set me off. I think allergies, but then they usually don't bother me. Whatever it is...it stinks.

Wish us luck moving and stay tuned for pictures! Have a great weekend everyone and think about us in the heat moving heavy furniture!! :-)

Little Rock weekend

So the weekend is now over...booooo! We had a great time in Little Rock @ Mike and Audra's wedding. Good time with good friends!! Now it is back to work! Have a good one.

My flowers and our weekend!!

I got roses and they are pink!!!

So we did nothing for our anniversary yesterday b/c we were so tired from this weekend (see the rest of the post). John actually grilled steaks then we made smores over the grill. They weren't as good as they would have been on a campfire but we still enjoyed them. That was pretty much our night. Tonight John is off to do some more painting and I have meeting to go to. Fun stuff!!

SO...this past weekend. First of all Friday we closed on our condo. So, now you can say we are home owners!! Then.....WE PAINTED AND PAINTED AND PAINTED. Luckily we had my parents up to help us. It was wonderful to have help. We would have never gotten done what we did. Here are some before and during pictures. I will post some after pictures in a few days. We won't officially move until JULY 22. If anyone would like to help please feel free!!!

HAPPY 2ND ANNIVERSARY!!

Thanks for all you do!!! I love you.
