Remodeling Project

Our Tile!!



Granite Counter Tops!!



We have been very lucky to have great help when it comes to our remodeling of the house. Dustin's parents went to an auction one weekend while Dustin and I worked the rodeo. They found some great deals and beautiful things to be put in our house. They came across some granite and tile for all the bathrooms and kitchen in the house. not only did they find some beautiful stuff they got it at like nothing in price. I couldn't be happier and can't wait to see what it will look like all together in the house. So we are getting there on starting the new project. Here are some pictures of the products we got. Please note it was taken at night and on my phone. Plus right now they are in our car port area. Better pictures when they get installed into the house.

New Addition to the Family

Meet ALI!!!

Everyone, Dustin and I would like to introduce the newest member to out family. Her name is Ali, she is our little miss sunshine. As most of y'all know I have always grown up with cats. We have been in the house since December and I just felt like it wasn't home yet for me. So I got talking to Dustin about how I wanted a cat(kitten). Dustin who is not a CAT lover, was not getting it at first. While I was home sick I convinced him to go to the local animal shelter down the street from us. I ended up taking home a feral kitten who I believe was 6 weeks old when I took her home. We had a lot of work to do. She was scared and didn't trust anyone or thing. She would hiss so bad spit would come out and she would swat at everything. This week marks two weeks since we brought her home and she is now no longer being ugly. I feel she trust Dustin and I to were she is comfortable with us. She loves to play! Her new thing this week is she likes to get on the bed. Every day there is something new to get her to adjust to her new environment. Here are some pictures of Miss Ali!!



She Loves to hide!!



Valentine's Day

My beautiful Flowers that I came home to from work,
Along with all different kind of Cold Meds!!

Sadly to say I was so sick....on our first valentin's day married. Also Dustin was working the rodeo that night. So all in all it wasn't the greatest memory :( With everything going on and me being so sick, Dustin still went out of his way to make sure I was spoiled with gifts and love. He did a very good job. We are hoping a month later....this friday to go out celebrating Valentine's Day. Yes, it has taken me a month to recover. It all started when I got sick with strep throat, then after feeling better from that three days later I got sick thinking it was just a cold. Come to find out it wasn't, I had the flu and broncitis. Not fun. Still trying to get over the broncitis, it is taken me awhile to get back up on my two feet. I still don't feel like I am 100% yet but getting there. I hope everyone else had wonderful Valentine's Day!! Here are some pictures from my wonderful things my hubby got me!! 



All my nice gifts I got!! New Miss Me Jeans,
New Purse and a Gift Card to VS!! My Hubby Loves ME!!

So the few days in February I decided while Dustin was at work I was going to bake. I had so much fun making all these goodies. Dustin sure did enjoy eating them. We even shared them with the rest of the crew for GMR. I made Chocolate cupcakes and Vanilla cupcakes. Take a look at my sweets.

It's Rodeo time San Antonio

As most of yall know Dustin works for a company called GMR marketing. He gets to travel and do events all over the place. Although, he really has only done the local events we are hopping to start branching out more. This past month Dustin was able to get me a spot on with the company. It was been a new experience that we are enjoying doing together. We are hopping after the stock show and rodeo here in town we will be able to do weekend events anywhere they are wanting to send us to. It is our way to make some extra cash to use either as play money or what I like to think as putting it towards my new car!! With the hope to get one at the end of the year or early next spring. Here are some pictures from the event so far. We are only 6 days in to it and still have two more weeks to go.


Got to see Lady A!!





Look who I found!! Cousin Amy!!

Love them!! We had fun!!



We had a Snow Day

Feb. 4th 2011

On Feb. 4th, we got snow. So the city of San Antonio was shut down and schools were closed. Yes, I know all that for that little amount of snow. Yes, cause we don't have anything here to take care of our roads or the people don't know how to drive in it. I would rather be safe then sorry! Here are some pictures from our snow day. We had fun playing in the snow for the day. The snow finially started to melt Saturday evening. The weather man here is saying we might get some more sleet this week. So we will see.

The Start of Remodeling!!

As most of yall know, with our house we just moved into it is a little out dated. So Dustin and I, along with the help from our parents. We started last weekend remodeling. The fun has started!! Or should I say the craziness and mess has started. Dustin and I are very excited and can't wait to see ending results. I even have before and after pictures of our projects as we go. I hope with this blog I can keep yall up to date about our remodeling. Last weekend, we decided to a little update to the back yard. Dustin and his dad custome built a fire box, along with a custome built gate!! It looks great. It's all welded and painted black.

I even decided to do a little project myself. We were very blessed by getting some out door furniture from Dustin's parents. They needed some new paint on them and then new cusions. I found everything at good old home depo. I hope to finish up my project this weekend making slip covers for the footrest. I forgot to take a before picture. Just picture them being forest green.
