THE projects…..

OH how the projects never end. But they are entertaining while the time goes by. So far in our new house we have: remodeled the bathroom, painted the basement stair case, did some major landscaping and so much more. It feels so good to know that anything you do, you do it for your own house not for some landlord. Right! Well anyway we are loving our new house and can't wait to show it off. P.s We are having a civil ceremony on Aug 14th and we are getting married but don'w worry we are having a nice reception new summer to give people notice. But we are pretty much already married so why wait! Keep on loving.

Life's hardest moments.


So Devon and I have looked for a house for a LONG time since January. Let me tell you it has taken its tole. This has been the hardest thing we have ever endured. Now towards the end of things, we have both learned so many important things that we would have never know in life without this experience. What a journey, we have gone through 6 banks turning us down for: job history, credit scores, current loans, and of corse $$$! But we found a broker and she is amazing, she has bent of backwards for us, she said that she was adopting us. In the beginning we were referred to a realtor and she to is great too. We have met some really nice people along our 6 month journey, and honestly they were our inspiration and they kept us moving on. Thanks to them we are where we are now. It has been a roller coaster from day one, finding your "dream house" and loosing your dream house, finding a better home for the future and almost loosing hope and giving up. Requesting help from friends and then all the sudden things start crumbling around you and all you can think of is "why did I drag these people into this with me" but then, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel, and you think "wow, it says a lot when someone is willing to risk their ass for you" and you feel good that you are including them in your adventure. We love it we hate it and we are so in love. Love is our hand to hold and our purpose for waking in the morning! Never give up on what your dream is even if there seems to be no way, if there is a will the IS a way!

B-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l weekend!



Devon and I had a great weekend went to lunch with my mom and the Mustard Seed on Saturday then to Zag graduation party for one of my close friends, came home watched some shows. Went to Breakfast on Sunday then to Costco, then walmart, and home again. Went for a long walk then went 4x4ing came home made Shrimp on the Barbie and rested. The sunset was just amazing so we decided to go kayaking and took Kesha (like always) and by the end of the weekend we just did a ton of things! I love those weekends, where you can just do what you want when you want. I love my Dev and have the best days with him.

Windy day but went Kayaking anyway

kesha and I hit up Eloika Lake today. It was fun but kind crazy the waves were kinda big. We paddled for about 1 mile going with the wind and then what goes down steam must come back up so we had to go against the wind on our way home. Paddled so hadr I have massive blisters but I am not complaining because I love my hobby!

I remember being 13 thinking "ya in 2011 i will be 21 and i will have a car and a house and be married and have dogs" and i think now my birthday is less then 2 months away and i have a SUV and i have a house (not paid off yet) and i got married and my girls are wonderful.
