I recently did a blog layout for a sweet precious blog friend, Nicole. She is awesome…you guys need to check out her blog and look at all her remodeling projects she has going on. It’s going to look fabulous when it’s finished 🙂
I have been craving a new lens for my camera for awhile now, so tonight before dinner with some friends we went to the camera store to check a few out. It was a lot of fun, I think I am leaning towards a wide angle lens, the one I really want is out of my price range…but in the mean time I think a wide angle would be a good investment and lots of fun!
Terence-using wide angle
Terence and I-using the fish eye lens-I loved this lens, but it’s not good for “everyday” shots…I know we look like goobers…but Terence was like 2 inches from my face (my nose is not that big ya’ll! LOL)
more fish eye lens shots….I love love love the distortion!!!
Now, back to checking everyone else’s blogs and catching up on what I have missed!
I think this whole daylight savings time effected me today…or maybe it was the 5 hour nap I took yesterday afternoon that threw me off. I’m ready to watch 24, but Terence is in class and won’t be home for another hour. Speaking of Terence, I am so proud of my honey…he studied so hard the past couple of weeks for his finals and he did so good! He made and A- in his advanced finance class and placed #3 out of 37 students for his final grade! I hope our kids get his brain! LOL! He also has his cap and gown ordered so come early May school is DONE! Yippeee!!!
I need to get some cute (but not girlie) graduation invites. Does anyone have a suggestion on a cute website or place I can order something? Probably no more than 30-40 invitations and I don’t want to spend a whole lot of money either….because after all we are still on a budget!
My mom is re-modeling her house right now and every day she has a new update. She’s been texting us lots of pictures. When Bon and I go home in a couple weeks I don’t know if we will recognize the house we grew up in! I’m so glad my mom is FINALLY able to get the kitchen and bathroom of her dreams…she deserves it so much! Here are a few pictures, the quality is not great because they are from my cell phone.
Here is the kitchen before, with the old blue/yellow walls and border as well as the laminate counter tops.
New black granite and there will be a tile black splash and a “latte” colored wall…also the popcorn ceiling has gone bye-bye!
I think this is going above the cabinets somewhere
Mom’s new organized closet!
New bathroom with shower. Before there was just a bathtub/shower combo. The bathroom is probably the biggest re-model. Mom has always wanted a jet tub. The bathroom was COVERED in ancient floral wallpaper and I’m so glad it’s gone!
There is one good thing about being a full time student for a year…TAX SEASON! It looks like we were living in a cardboard box for the year (being on one income) …so hopefully we will see some tax money back in our pockets!
Terence’s Grandma turned 83 today. Every year she likes to go to Red Lobster. So the whole family met there tonight and a good time was had! Afterward Terence and I went to see Watchmen, it was “okay”, but not as good as we thought it would be.
HAPPY B-DAY GRANDMA! WE LOVE YOU!
Yeah presents and cake!
Cutie patootie niece & nephew
