Busy weekend.. Ready for the week off


So yesterday we went to Jamin's Mom's house to have a early dinner. Elena's Mom was there and "D", Sarah, Joe, Jamin's Aunt,Grandma, and his Mom's friend from work. We had a good time and lots of laughs. Today I went to brunch with a friend and then when I got home Nini was here and then Ralphael came we started making dinner. Then Maria Ro's Mom called Ralphael and he told him he was here.. let's rewind a little. I haven't been on good terms with Ro's Mom for about almost 3 yrs. if you know the story you know why. Ro felt bad because she called him after she talked to his Dad. So he looked at me and asked if she could come over.. Well with the 3 men are looking at me and are laughing because they know I'm uncomfortable. I said sure. So first I think what can I do so I can be out of the house. I am working on painting a hutch on the back patio. So I changed and headed out there. While I'm painting I hear her voice and my stomach get's upset and the anxiety is building. I had to stop painting and sat down at a table outside. We are watching my Dad's dog until Tues. She is out there with me and I just sit there thinking what should I do what's gonna happen when I finally have to go in. All of a sudden Ro comes out with his Mom in tow and he makes me get up and talk to her, she hugs me we talk and all of a sudden everything is fine. So I came inside and we started talking and making rice. I showed her our wedding website and talked about our wedding. When she left I invited her to our housewarming party on Sat. So it was a good Easter, and I know that Ro feels a lot better knowing that his Mom and I are ok now. Also we Skyped Ralph, Jenny, and Ava, it was good to see them. I want to find more people that are on there. It's a fun way to communicate. My fav. part is that it is FREE! Whohoo!

Maybe this wasn't a good idea

So both of my parents are gone for Easter.. =0( I don't think this has ever happened. My Dad has this yellow lab named Noni she is the sweetest low key dog ever. Ro and I don't like to hear that she goes the kennel . We rather have her be here with us. We have dog sat her before at Sunny Park, but not at our new house yet or around Delilah. I think the last time we had Delilah in our bedroom so she never met Noni. So Noni came yesterday we like to keep her inside because normally she's outside dog and doesn't get a lot of attention because my parents and my sister are so busy. So we love to spoil her will love and bonding time when she's with us. It took about an hr until Delilah came out and checked out the new visitor. She seemed fine and she kept her distance, Noni does whine at her though .. because she wants to play. Delilah seemed fine all last night and they slept on there separate couchs. But this morning I went outside to put the mail in the mail box I closed the door behind me and when I opened it Delilah was right there. Usually she is.. waiting for me.. today she decided to bolt! She ran outside and I sat in the door way calling her, then I tried chasing her. She was hanging out by a tree and I thought that she would bolt it up but she didn't .. I gave up and came inside to call Ro.. I am not sure why but I was a blubbering mess because I thought my baby didn't want to be here anymore because Noni was here, and this was her way of saying Hasta La Vista... I called Ro and he's not upset or anything and I can barely talk and hold the phone. Then all of a sudden I hear here scratching on the door.. First thought she really does love me! I ran to the door and she bolted right back in .. UGH! What a morning! She hid behind the couch for awhile because she was probably recovering from her trip outside. Then she finally came out and sat on her beanbag watching Noni. So I'm really confused because I thought she wasn't happy Noni was here why would she be intrigued with watching her.. Who knows.. what if animals could talk to you and explain themselves.. I'm just glad that Delilah decided that she wanted to be here and not run away.. I knew I always had a reason to have a collar on her with her name and Ro and my numbers.. in case this happened... but now a days do you really think people call.. I did last month when a beautiful German Shepard was roaming the streets, I called it over and it had tags and I called the number.. The man didn't live too far and he came and picked up the dog.Hmmm well here's what they are doing now..

My purple socks.. Jamin said I should

I figured I could blog about anything.. J suggested my socks.. they are white with purple stripes.. the bottoms aren't very dirty because I have only walked in garage once with them. If I had been out there more than three times they would be a dirt color on the bottoms. They are thin, which means they are breathable and they don't make my feet sweat. That's nice, I like that feature. I usually wear them with tennis shoes because they are breathable.
Tonight we had a little kick back we had Jamin, Elena and their baby Teveah, and also our friend Tom that we haven't seen in awhile. We had pizza and lots of laughs. We watched the final game of the final 4 for college basketball.

I love these wedding shows

I DVR any show that has married.. wedding.. or anything that pertains.. I am watching one about this gay guy couple... It's the cutest thing.. LOL It's called Newlywed, nearly Dead.. it's about newlyweds that are having troubles.. they need help with their marriages. Other shows are Wedding SOS a wedding planner comes to their rescue and gives them 3 wishes to help them with their wedding. Some are good for info but others are just lazy people that are so last minute. I think the one thing that has really helped me so far is a book called Bridal Bargains.. and I got it at the library. It has sooooooooo much info and great websites to check out. We have a videographer, a venue, maybe a photographer.. a caterer is with the venue... that's it we have to figure out cake,flowers,my dress.. I've been looking at pictures.. but I wanna go try on .. but I think 13 months before a wedding is WAY to early.. My Mom knows someone who makes wedding dresses.. we think maybe that will be cheaper.. and neater because it will be a one and only.. I haven't been able to grow my hair out forever.. Ever since I cut it doesn't grow that much.. A friend of mine recommended prenatal pills.. she says my hair will grow crazy.. I dunno.. She says I could also put in extensions..But I think that would look weird .. UHHH .. I didn't realize that you should register 2 to 3 months before the wedding and not much more because if you do that people will try to buy stuff you registered for it might be out of stock by then.. Just really interesting stuff.. My biggest happiness is last night my Dad told me that he wants Ro and I to swim with the dolphins in Kauai on our honeymoon next year. He will pay for it.. OMG! First I thought that was weird.. but it's kind of exciting knowing that you will swim with a dolphin.. How many people can say they have done that.. WOW.. Can't wait.. I want the wedding to be over already so I can do swim with the dolphins and chill out on the beach! WHOOO HOO!

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..
