Everything in the house is finished

Our walkway to our house.. It's hard to see but there's daisies in there.. lol
So he's had to add extra cement .. then he will add tile that he took from our bedroom.. because we wanted to recycle the tile same way.. so we thought it would look good in the front..

The only thing left for Ian to do.. Our super duper handyman.. is to do the front of the porch.. someone threw cement there.. and it looked horrible.. I should of took a pic before Ian added cement.. but I guess I can take one of what it looks like before he finishes it.. He will put tile from our bedroom that he took out. Then he will be done.. Our house will FINALLY be finished and our open house will be in April.. We are so happy..

Oh I almost forgot..


Ro and I are going to Wedding University tomorrow night to start looking at stuff for our wedding next yr. I think it's so much easier to go to these free wedding show's to see vendors instead of driving everywhere to check them out.. Hopefully we will get some good ideas..

Well since Ava is crawling now! =0) We have some good news too!

Cute sink Ew!? LOL
YAY it matches!!!!
My lil sis came over last weekend to spend the night... we had fun.. I took her to Chuck E. Cheese to play.. what a mad house!

So our remodel on our bathroom

is finally starting to come around and start... slowly but surely.. whenever they took off the first layer there was mold.. so he had to stop and we had to spray it with bleach and water. Then he came back and tore some more stuff down and there was more mold. Our contractor is glad that we wanted to do the remodel because the mold might of gotten worse and we would of had a huge problem. So now today he took out the old window in the shower and put in the new one that is smaller and higher.. because this is strictly Ro's bathroom. =0) He's so excited. I think tomorrow they will put in venting system's for both bathrooms and put in new insulation. Sooooo yay! I'm glad tomorrow is Fri. I get a three day weekend.. I had one last week and I will have one next week too! 3 3 day weekends.. I feel spoiled! I feel even more spoiled because Ro has been having the weekend off with me too. But this weekend he will have to work Sat. =0( It's ok though, I need to go over to my Mom's and work on ebay stuff. I was over there the other day and put at lease 5 new things on ebay and they are gonna sell this week so .. that makes me happy.. any way to make some extra money. I'm gonna start saving for our wedding.. We want to get married next year but we don't want to announce a date until we find a venue for sure. Well our friend "D" is over so I'm gonna get goen.. I gotta finish a scarf too that someone wants at a spa party in couple of weeks.

So things are great.. Ro and I are starting to enjoy the house instead of fixing or putting stuff away enough though we are still doing that and still fixing but it's finally slowing down. I am finally going to post some pictures, since these pictures were taken we have changed some things but I will post those later. Ro and I both bought each other Valentines presents.. LOL We talked about it the other night .. that we would only spend $50 on each other this yr. Because Feb. is the 1st month that we will pay our mortage and all other bills in full. So Ro has been saying he wants a soniccare toothbrush like mine and he said Target had one for $50 so I bought that for him today and he used it and commented that his gums are tingling.. he's too cute.. Then the other day he looked through the Victoria Secret catalog and found some stuff he liked.. for me.. not him. So I made the order online.. For 3 things it was $56 bucks! So he gave me his credit card and that's my Valentines gift. So yay Valentines Day came early for us. So here's the pics

Christmas and New Year in San Diego

Well we are still in San Diego.. What a nice vacation we are having.. usually it seems like the vacations we have go by so fast, this one is going slowly.. which is weird, Ro and I have been sleeping on a inflatable bed and we are starting to be missing our own bed. We are also really missing Delilah our cat. We are happy that we have a housesitter there to be getting our mail, and paper and watching our kitty. Also it's nice to relax and spend time with family, it's been so crazy moving in and being stressed so it's nice to just sit and help my Nana cook and visit with everyone. Christmas dinner was wonderful with everyone. Visiting my Grandparents in Alpine, having dinner with them. Having lunch with my Aunt and Uncle. Going to go visit my other Aunt and Uncle who are the close and age to Ro and I so I don't really call them Aunt and Uncle. One of my cousin's I've never met he's 2, I have heard he's a terror and run's away already, people bringing him home already.. LOL I'm excited to see them tomorrow night. Then we leave Sat. it will be nice to be home again. We have a lot that needs to get finished and get started. Mon. our contractor will come and put in our new kitchen sink, our dishwasher, and our microwave. Then we have to talk to him about what we wanna do with our guest bathroom tub, we want to put in a shower since Ro doesn't fit in our shower. So we will have to buy new tile for that. I will be happy that we will finally be able to use our sink and dishwasher, we haven't been able to cook a meal really since our kitchen sink is broken. Well I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and a very exciting New Year..
