BIG PLANS....

So we did our taxes about....mmmm almost three months ago now and we still haven't seen ANYTHING yet kind of annoying if you ask me! Especially because WE Carl and I have BIG BIG PLANS with this money....
1. Pay off some good old things that need paying off like:
My credit card
Carl's credit card
RC Willy
2. Clean up the yard...the lady that lived in our house planted RANDOM things EVERYWHERE!
3. Put a little money into the house
4. Spend some on our self's
5. SAVE SAVE SAVE!!!!
So with this in mind I have been looking at things i want to do with my spending money and my ideas for what we should do to the yard and house....
These are things I really want for ME, MYSELF, and I:
This dress...
The other dress
The bag...
LOVE THEM ALL!





Now moving on to the house...our kitchen is a work in progress...we have this HUGE ugly light fixture in there right now that doesn't have a cover on it so it looks like this:

This thing is SOOOO ugly I hate it....







I Would much rather have something like this:








The only problem...our ceilings are really low...so who knows what will happen maybe so nice track lighting or can lights....
We bought a new doorbell, and we still very much need a new mailbox....these are all things I would like to buy with our tax returns WHEN they get here!

I don't know why the last few lines of my last post are bold and I have tried everything that I know....so oh well we will deal with it I guess...

6 Months


Friday

was our six months! Can you believe we've made it this far?? lol So Carl was in Las Vegas last week for a Vacuum Convention and came home Friday just in time to celebrate! I asked him Thursday night what he wanted to do to celebrate and he just kept saying i don't know....i don't know i just want to come home....so he was a lot of help! So i decided that we would just make a nice dinner. So after I picked him up we headed to the store to get steaks and made yummmmy yummy steaks, garlic mashed potatoes and a salad....This has to be my most favorite meal in the world! We had planned at first to just stay at home and hang out the two of us since we hadn't seen each other for 3 days lol but then we got a call from some friends to come over and have poker night....so both decided that we didn't want to just sit around and Adam and Nikki had invited us over a number of times and we still hadn't gone over to their place that it would be fun! So we showered got ready and headed to their house! It was a lot of fun I'm glad we decided to go hang out!


Saturday

So Saturday we decided that we would have an us day because we ended up going out Friday night....so we woke up cleaned the house a bit then went to lunch at Cafe Rio (mmmmm).

Then later that night we got a bunch of friends together and went bowling! I love bowling but after the 2nd game or so i get burnt out and can't handle it anymore! It was pretty funny Carl and a lot of the kids we hang out with on the weekends ride bmx and so it was cool that they ran into an old bmx friend Carl really enjoyed that! All in all it was a super fun night and thanks to all the cool kids that came with us and the ones we met there! lol



We had a blast this weekend and i can't believe its already been six months! It really feels like we were married only a short few months ago not 6 months ago! I can't wait for the many many more years we have to spend with each other! Carl is my best friend and the love of my life he means everything in the world to me!
