Project!!

I have been decorating my new place and one of the most important items i needed was a coffee table. I didnt want to spend a hundred dollars on one right now so Marshall & I re-finished one that i bought off of craigs list. We painted it "crackle" it makes it look like its old an vintage. I think it turned out great, and i will be the first to admit that Marshall did all the work ;o).

Dover

Marshall & I finally made it to Wendover! He has been bugging me to go since February and we finally did. We didn't take the party bus like planned but we still had a great time. The bad part is... now he wants to go back! I knew this would happen. We broke even but everyone else in our party pretty much lost, so thats kinda sucky. Sorry i dont have pictures, it was a spur of the moment thing, literally, Josh and Tiffany called us at 7 and we were on the road at 8, so i forgot my camera.

The New Place

I have no idea what they call this place in the house, i have never used one before. Just kidding... I actually baked muffins last night, i felt so domestic.

The dining area

My friend Ashley from work gave me those words for my birthday. They stick on like stickers and it is super cute in my room. It says "Everyday holds a possiblity of a Miracle".

The room that holds the most precious gift... DVR (i need to get a grip, i know).

The living room with my homemade end table. It holds a drink quite nicely.

It came with the shower curtain so i just went with the black and white theme. Turned out pretty darn cute if you ask me.

Half of my room. Its actually pretty big and this picture makes it look tiny.

I finally found an apartment!!! The walls are kinda bare right now but i have only been there since Sunday, so don't worry, i got it covered. I have got big plans for this place ;o) My roommate and I get along GREAT so that relieves a lot of stress and the best part is... drum roll please... I have DVR!!! Its amazing! I dont know how i ever lived without it. This is bad though because now i dont know how i ever really will and its kinda a hard thing to justify. Last night i went through and set it to record all my favorite shows, plus some. I am totally pumped! The memory is going to be full in no time.

Marshall's Trip

Nick Kay, Marshall and his nephew Austin

Abby (Marshall's sister-in-law), Nick (his brother), Don (his dad), Marsh, & Jared (his younger brother)

This one is my fav.... oh boy, what a looker!

While I was in Hawaii, Marshall went back east to Buffalo, NY (his hometown) for his best friend (Matt's) wedding. Of course he didn't take his camera but his dad was there and he sent us a few pictures so i thought i would post them since he looked so handsome.

Climbing

By far the funnest part

I look like i have got everything under control

Marshall just shoots right up it. He makes it look so easy.

It's a lot more complicated than it looks

How pretty are those leaves?

One more thing that i would like to post about is an event that happened before i went on my trip to Hawaii. Marshall FINALLY got me to go rock climbing with him. It was his friend Josh's birthday and he wanted to go with his wife and us so after a lot of sweet talk i finally caved. And... it gets better... i actually tried climbing. I am not so great but i gave it my all and got a little ways up the wall. I thought it would be harder with fingernails but that was the least of my worries when i was slithering my way up the rock.

Hawaii

Carrie and i were conversating a few weeks ago and she mentioned that her and her little boy Stone were going to Hawaii for a week vacation in a few days, i asked her if i could go and she was pumped! So... alas... here are the pictures from our exciting adventure! I got sick the last half of the trip so we ended up coming home a day early but it was A-Okay, we had a great time while we were there!!!

Carving Pumpkins

Sorry it has been so long since i have posted. It seems as though i was doing so good then i just dropped of the face of the blog world. Well, dont worry, im BACK!!!!

Okay, starting us off...Marshall and I babysat his nephew a few weeks ago and to keep him entertained we carved pumpkins. I think they turned out fabulous!
