Hollywood goes Lime Green

So for my 30th birthday, I am going to keep up with my themed atmosphere. I bought a lime green dress, and I think we might rent a limo to ride around in. So my theme is going to be something like Hollywood goes lime green. I am busy finding Aaron a matching shirt and tie to my dress.

In my search I'm theming the 4th of July too. It's going to be Miss Americas and I bought the girls red, white, and blue crowns. I'm so excited to take the girls to Washington DC! I can't wait.

Life is so good. Aaron and I each day are one step closer to where we want to be. I am doing well in school and he is going to be starting school up again in September!

I better be off to work on the house! I'm meeting my snuggle for lunch! How lucky am I to get such an awesome family? I know not ALL girls are this lucky. I want him to be impressed with the house progress when he gets home tonight, and I want it to be done when my little sis gets here in just 2 1/2 weeks.

A million pictures to come.....

Yay for little sisters!


I have to admit, God must have really been looking out for me when he was handing out little sisters! Raychl is coming for my 30th birthday! I'm so excited! We have plans for a BIG girls lunch date with Bailee, a dinner cruise, shopping, running, eating healthy, gossipping....I literally have the best little sister in the world. Be jealous. This is a picture of us when she was in Boise for Christmas. We made amazing tacos, banana/peanut butter smoothies, tanned, and laughed about how rediculous I can be sometimes, and how lucky I am to have such an amazing husband to put up with it! Well the count down is on...she will be here in a month and I'm sooooo excited!

Superdad

I am a VERY themed person. And everything has to match. So on top of moving and school, I'm amidst planning father's day weekend. Which we are both off for! Thank goodness Bailee is on summer vacation and can help me a little bit in the morning with the baby. Aalyah is a very demanding little bear! I know that sometimes I wear myself out and stress a little too much for things to be perfect, but I have found my theme for father's day is going to be SUPERDAD! I would say that fits Aaron perfectly. I found some gift wrap, and instead of making breakfast superdad muffins, I think I might just take him out to eat since time is running out. Tomorow I will barely have time to pick up the rest of his presents. Yay! We are going to stay that night in Myrtle Beach I am really excited! (I promise to post pictures!) Hopefully they turn out because we didn't get ANYTHING worth posting of our Gwen Steffani concert pictures. I guess that's what happens when you have a 9 year old taking them heeeheee! I love Bailee but she needs to take a photography class :)

Another door closes...

Well, you win some you lose some, and when you lose you should learn. Aaron and I overlooked a little provision in our lease that says you CAN'T paint. Well, our kitchen was so dark we were just going to paint our cabinets. They looked so good too. But our landlord caught wind of it, and issued Aaron a 30 day notice to vacate and explained that we can't make any changes to this house since it is not ours. Heeheee. I guess we were used to being homeowners. And Alicia, yes as difficult as I am, customized EVERYTHING to my liking. I know we are forfeiting our deposit, so this was quite an expensive lesson learned. But in our favor, we did find a MUCH nicer house. I would make no changes to it! I was waiting to take pictures of our house until we got our cabinet painting project done, that was going to be the final touch. AND now we have all ready started moving our stuff out. I don't even want to take pictures of this house. I have never really liked it, and although we had some really nice, welcoming neighbors, these are the people that ratted us out to the landlord. Aaron and I just quietly packed our stuff and we have the movers coming next Saturday to transport it to the new house. Well, lucky us, they allow dogs, and we are looking at a dog right now and that would have been breaking the lease as well. So we are lucky that we just get to move out. I am excited to move, but also it seems like we have spent so much time and hard work getting everything to our liking here. I do love North Carolina. I am very excited to get IN and get SETTLED!!!!! Once and for all. And with that, another door will close, but yet another door opens. I am a little tired of packing, but yet I know that something better awaits us!
