If You Walked Into My House Right Now...

I thought this was a neat linkup so I have decided to participate (for the first time in forever)! Head on over to My Life As A Sailors Princess to check it out. Basically the title explains it all. If you walked into my house right now this is what you'd see...

I clean my kitchen after every use but you will always find a single pot on the stove

ready to boil  some water for Hot Chocolate (my favorite thing on this whole planet!)

 We haven't been able to eat at the dinner table for weeks 

because my hubby is using it to work on his model train layout

 Our closet is a HOT MESS! I blame my husbands Sea bags all piled on the floor

but really I make up about 80% of the problem

We have moved out Family Wall! It is now on one of our red accent walls and it is soooo fab!

(excuse the gigantic sheet of Styrofoam and creepy gigantic Pixar lamp) 

One of my favorite parts of the living room

Hope you enjoyed and linkup at My Life As a Sailors Princess!

I Just Felt Like Writing...

I am really in the mood to blog today, about what though, I don't know. I'll probably ramble on about a few things and call it a day.

We have seriously outgrown our house already. There is not enough room to put ANYTHING. It's actually rather annoying because our house always looks like a hot mess, when really it is because there is no proper place for anything. This makes me really happy, though, that we decided to not rent the very small but super cheap place that we loved. We'd be swamped there. Anyway, we have decided that when T gets out of the military, and we leave this apartment that I love so much, that we are BUYING A HOUSE, with much more room of course. And when we say buying a house, we mean try to buy a house. We don't know exactly how it will go but we are going to try, at least that is the plan for now (T changes his mind like every week).  We want to move up by my parents house, ie. the nice part of town but there is not much we can afford up there so this will be an adventure!  I am really looking forward to it!

Now of to something else that is completely different, our amazing friends KC and his twin Danny surprised us with our wedding present yesterday. They made us a hope chest from scratch. It is so beautiful! And I cannot wait to fill it with treasures, like baby blankets (yes, baby blankets. I have been having baby fever lately, I need to snap out of it!).

This picture does it no justice! It is absolutely beautiful!

Okay, if you are not bored yet, one last update. I have been a sewing fool lately. I am almost done with my second project, an apron, which was MUCH harder than it looked. But so far it is turning out pretty decent. I am almost done attaching the flounce onto the bottom of the apron, then I have to sew on the ties. I think my next project will be sewing a duvet cover for our new down comforter.

 Okay for some reason my house looks super creepy in this photo, its just because it's dark in here right now and T doesn't believe in opening blinds.

P.S I should be getting wedding photos today! I am so excited to show you all!

PURE SPARKLY SEX!

Being on blog hiatus is so sad! I haven't even been able to read blogs because on my phone I cant scroll down while on blogspot (something that REALLY annoys me) I promise to catch up with my commenting =].

So I am super excited for the end of this week because I have Friday AND Monday off! WHATTTTT??! I know! Partyyyy! Well kind of. Friday I am going to finally unpack all my stuff and get our house looking like a home (hanging pictures, getting potted flowers, buying a couch [?]) I am also thinking about doing my very first video blog! I am really eager to show off our place, I am not so eager for you to hear my annoying voice (seriously, you have been forwarned). I also need to make our house look somewhat presentable because Saturday I am having my bridesmaids over for Facials! (I won a free facial day at a bridal show! I guess sometimes you are not just spammed and acutally win stuff!)

(Fun Fact: T is singing in the kitchen right now, it's super cute)

AND, I have my wedding shoes!! My wonderful sissy is letting me borrow them, so they are my shoes AND my something borrowed.

I am pretty sure Steve Madden did the impossible and was able to design pure sex into a shoe. (P.S this picture doesn't EVEN do the sparkly justice!)

And if you haven't seen the word sex enough in this post, here it is one more time:

SEX
Anyway, I am about to dip my hands in some paraffin wax to make them nice and soft. Check ya later!
