New wedding date

We have changed the wedding date from May 8,2010 to now April 10th, 2010. Why you ask?! well mom said they do not make flowers for weddings on mothers day weekend. I guess they are real busy. The following weekend might be bad for Rachel, my cousin. She might be graduating at Purdue. 

I do not want a summer wedding and the first weekend in April is Easter. I cant win! So now it is April 10, 2010. Please mark your calenders. Oh yeah, and the band said they would switch the date too!

House Hunting part 2

Well, Tony and I just got back from looking at 5-6 houses. The first house was awesome and we want it! It had a finished basement, a huge deck out back, which might to be repaired, big and spacious kitchen and eatery...the house house Tony likes. Here are few listings we saw. The one Tony likes was on Robertann St. The whole house needs new flooring. The late owners had it built in 1960. It was still decorated from 1960! We walked in and the carpet was neon yellow/green! You can tell in the pictures.http://dayton.rapmls.com/scripts/mgrqispi.dll?APPNAME=Dayton&PRGNAME=MLSPictureDescriptions&ARGUMENTS=-N252564812,-N423691,-AE,-N0,-N0,-ARR,-LFalse,-N0,-ADTON

Hopefully, we can find a house we like. When we went and saw the first house, couple houses down from that one there was a house with a huge porch out front. Updated everything, new garage, new front door. My realtor stopped and called the number out front. He said that we will have to make an apt to go see the insides but the owner is going through a nasty divorce and is trying to sell the property for $140,000. Jay, my realtor then said it is going through something called short sale. Which means it needs to sell so he thinks it might go for $110,000 and with all of the updates it might be nice! Cross your fingers!

Tonight, we are going to my cousin's baseball Monte Carlo party. It is at a country club in Miamisburg. Ill try to remember to bring my camera!

Warm Weekends!

This past weekend was GREAT weather! Tony and I were actually both off that weekend too. Saturday morning we went to John Bryant park and hiked. A warm/cool breeze was very nice. We took Gracie too. We came home and showered then went to Mom and Dad's house to see Sarah and Addison. They were here for a haircut. CUTE hair Sarah! I love it. Saturday nite, Tony, Eric (his bro) and I went to a fish fry in Vandaila. It was ok. There were alot of colorful people there. We had food and sat around drinking beers and taking everyone in. I called these two old ladies. They were hilarous. Reminded me of the red hat ladies. They walked in and came straight to our table and asked if they can sit with us. They were hilarious.  We left the fish fry at 8pm We were in bed by 930pm. We are so old going to bed early.

Sunday at 4pm, Tony and I went to go look at some houses to buy. Mostly in Kettering. They were so run down and nasty I said NO to all of them. The first one was on Hackney Dr. Tony like it but I thought it was way too little. The kitchen was so small there was no room for a kitchen table. The other house was off of Ackerman. Two old ladies lived there and they were still there when we walked, watching TruTV, they wanted us to stay and watch it with them. We walked around and walked right out. The smell was so bad it reminded me of an old folks home. Moth balls and medicine. The carpet was installed on concrete, no padding. Major redo! The other houses just went down hill from there. This one kitchen had pale yellow cabinets with mint green and peach inlays. SICK, the laminate floors were coming up with 4 different layers under. The basement also had puddles. 

Tony came home and made steak salad and sour cream apple pie. So yummy!! He looked up some addresses that are foreclosed/bank  owned. I emailed these addresses to my realitor, Hopefully he will find us a perfect house! Cross your fingers! 

Monday when I got home from work at 1pm, I saw a package at the front door. Tony had bought me Cheryl Burke's work out videos. He remembered me talking about them and he bought them. Thank you sooo much! 

Gracie's Butt=Gross!

Today was my day off. Full pack day! I went to JuJu;s  hair salon and got a touch up plus trim off my dry ends. Then Tony and I went to Hobby Lobby. I am starting to love this place! Tony and I found silver velum for our invites. It is going to be the shiny black paper with silver velum over, tied with a red bow. Very sharp!

Then I took Gracie to Petsmart by my work. They gave HD associates free check up coupons, she also needed her anal glands squeezed. Gross you say, well the doctor even asked me next time i come she will show me how to do it internally so I can do it at home! HOW SICK IS THAT? well I will save $20 each time! Just pop on a glove and squeeze!! HAHA....

I came home cleaned up our room... The other day, Tony changed our room around and bought me a chinese lantern to hang in the middle of the room. Makes our room look allot bigger! Here is a picture...

Yes i know... i have to clean on top of Gracie's cage. Well the headboard was on the wall to the left. Now it is behind the camera. We also got new comforters. From Ikea. Down comforters for only $20. Great deal. Tony got a king size and I got a queen. We have to have our own blankets cuz one of us will steal blankets. I like my own!

OFF!

WOW I am a blog slacker! At least Sarah keeps hers up! Well today was one of my days off. The other night Tony and I were watching Bobby Flay cook-off for lasagna. It looked yummy so I decided to make some. The very first time I have ever made it. It was actually good. I took it over to mom and dad's. They loved it too! I messed up with the bottom noodles. I ran out of sauce and cheese. It made the noodles hard. Next time, it will turn out better! But it wasn't bad!

Also, today was wedding planning. I have been looking into reception sites. Called a few of them also called the photographer. Tony is planning on taking me to Hilton Head Islands for the honeymoon. I cant wait to get away! I need a vaca from work.

I have our band booked! I can't wait to dance with Last Call. If you would like to visit there website and hear some of there music..www.myspace.com/lastcallohio. 

Poor Civic got stuck!

What a day! Beth called me and asked if I could come to her house and help her with a project she needs done for work. Well when I was coming up to her drive way I was a little nervous, she had a huge pile of snow at the end of her drive. I noticed traffic coming both ways so I tried to go fast and sped up. (Beth lives on a main road) Sooooo I gunned it and got STUCK! I felt retarded. Cars were stopping both ways. One car was motioning me to back up and go... I rolled down my window and yelled IM STUCK! Well the Fairborn guys are very nice! The one I yelled at turned around and parked and another guy pulled over. I had at least 3-4 people try and push me out. I had a camera on me but they might have made fun of me if i started to take pictures.

Tomorrow, Tony and I are going to a place where I am considering  to have my reception. It is called Top of the Market. check it out at www.topofmarket.com. Beth just informed me she would not want to be one of the bridesmaids so I will have my sister, Tony's sister, Wobin and possibly Katie. If she wants to be in it too. I will have to ask her again.

Ill bring my camera to the reception place.... until then...

My Birthday Bash

Last nite was my birthday! I turned 27. I had a great birthday! Well not the part when I had to wake up at 5AM and head to work. I got off a 3 and went to the BMV. Paid way to much money on a little sticker, which I ripped!  I went home and I took a quick nap, then headed off to El Toro for dinner. You like what my family did to me and asked our waitress for a sombaro. 

I want to thank everyone who made my Birthday so special. Wobin, Bryan, Mom, Dad, Julie, Jack, Cameron, Scott, Theresa and specially Tony! After we ate at El Toro, we decided to hit up Elsa's for some Bad Juans. I love them but I can only have them once a year. They are very strong margaritas. I drank two of them and one strawberry.


Here is a picture of Wob with the hat on. After she told me their might be lice in it. Thanks!
Julie, Mom and Theresa at Elsa's. Drinking some yummy Bad Juans. It was Theresa's first time having them.

Mom and Dad bought me Wii Fit. WOW, it is sooo cool! Tony and I set it up this morning and tested it out. Per the Wii, my age is 24. Tony's is 20. But still overweight! LOL, we will loose it! I will keep everyone posted on what goes on with our Wii fitness.
