House Hunting

We met our real estate agent last night to look at this house. It is more than we wanted to spend, but because it’s brand new the builders are really trying to sell it. It’s already finished out and we would have to close in a month! Ahhh!!! There is also the option to build. I’m so torn as to what to do, but we both fell in love with this house. I don’t want to be house poor though 🙁 So many decisions! I mean it’s either we get a nicer house and take that next step with the low low interest rates right now and the 8K tax credit, or a starter home that we aren’t completely in love with….what would you do???? It’s over 2300 square feet, I mean we don’t have the furniture to furnish this baby anyways! ha..ha… but I do LOVE it! It’s everything we wanted.
Front of the house, it has very LITTLE yard…which Terence loves…but what about for re-sale?
The Living Room-hand scraped hardwood floors

Media Room-Terence’s dream room! LOL!

Potty room

Dining Room

Kitchen-they will include all the stainless steel appliances

Staircase-except ours had the iron spindles and dark wood finish

It has 3 brm/2.5 baths & a Study

WHAT WOULD YOU DO????

The Vampire Diaries

Have any of you heard of the new show coming to CW called “The Vampire Diaries“? They are totally copying off of Twilight…but I still may watch it just to check it out and see how it is. I guess they saw a hit and now turned it into a TV show.

Also-Look who my BFF Sara ran into at Stoby’s in Conway the other day! Kris Allen (American Idol Winner)…she’s so silly! He took a picture with her preggers self and she said he was very sweet 🙂

Summer time & some road rage

It is HOT outside ya’ll! This morning I drove to work in a lightning blazed thunderstorm and I stayed in the grandma lane going 35 mph because I was scared. This afternoon I drove home in sunshine and 90 degree heat….what’s up with that??? I have some major road rage and most of the time it begins with “you idiot!!!” and then I have to calm myself and turn on some Sara McLaughlin “In the Arms of an Angel” you better believe I want to fly away from here! LOL! That song always relaxes me…..
Anyways-these are some dont’s while driving:

  • Don’t pull yourself in front of an eighteen wheeler going 70+ miles per hour!
  • Don’t be a stupid head and rear end the slow person in front of you! (the truck in front of me yesterday hit the car in front of them…stupid…I know)
  • Don’t ride a motorcycle on the shoulder because you think you are so cool you don’t have to wait in traffic like everyone else!
  • Don’t talk on your cell phone, put on your makeup, or shave your legs while driving…it can wait…trust me!
  • Prepare-Don’t wait until the last second to try and make your exit…ain’t nobody gonna let you over!

Okay that’s about it for today’s lesson in driving…thanks for letting me vent 🙂

My sweet co-worker Julie got me this awesome necklace and sarong to wear this summer…because Lord knows nobody wants to see my white bootie uncovered! I love me some chunky jewelry. She is precious! Thank you Julie! Terence is at the gym right now, that is where I should be….but I’m too busy thinking about what to have for dinner….Lord give me willpower to go! Hope ya’ll are having a great week! Becky

Isn’t it sunshiney!

28th Birthday

I woke up this morning and Ter-Bear cooked us breakfast….bacon, eggs, and fruit. We headed to Frisco to try out The Cupcakery. There is one in Vegas where Bonnie lives and they recently put one here in Texas too.
It was sooooo GOOD!

MMMMMMMM…………..
You see this Bon??? Everything is BETTER in Texas! ha..ha..
Coffee…

Yummy tiramisu from Maggiano’s Friday night…seriously the best tiramisu I’ve ever had!

Sweet gift from my co-workers…I love them!

I’ve been wanting new bedding for awhile and today we got new shams, quilt, and euro shams from Restoration Hardware. I love that place!

Also got two pillows for the sofa to break up all the BROWN

A soft furry throw for me because I am always cold and I live with Terence the “living furnace”

I had a wonderful birthday today! Thank you all for the sweet birthday wishes I feel so loved and blessed! I’m getting old ya’ll…30 is right around the corner!!!!

Thank you Family

Thank you for making my b-day extra special my dear family! As long as I am saying “thank you” I may as well lay it all out here on the blog! Mom, Dad, and Nannie – thank you for the money (very much appreciated b/c it’s expensive to move!) 😛

I miss the farm and spending every holiday there, shopping days with me, Mom, and Bon. Escorting my goofy Dad to his high school reunions and being his “arm candy”. Nannie spoiling us and feeding us fried taters until we can’t breath! Aunt Karli – the coolest Aunt in the world, and Lindsey the coolest cousin who just turned 13 a few days ago! Welcome to the teen years! Uncle Gary streaking through the living room in his XXXL undies he got in his stocking! LOL! This blog is for my family – to keep in touch because I miss you so much! You are loved beyond words and I miss you every day! I LOVE YOU!!! Today I got a sweet card from my Aunt Karli, Uncle Gary, & Lindsey
Thank you so much and I will sure enjoy the gift cards 🙂

Aunt Karla – A.K.A. the coolest Aunt in the world- has a “signature pose”

She puts her hand under her chin to hide her gobbler….as you can see I’ve collected quite the poses over the years of my dear Aunt Karli! LOL!

I love you!
