true story

I thought I'd do a picture post, to catch up on some random pictures we've taken while I've been "away"...to start things off...

Our wedding is less than one month away!!!! The picture above is where we'll be when we say "I Do"...finally! You enter through these gates into the Courtyard...


Moving Day June 16th: Aspen and I showing our "muscles" inside the moving truck.

Our awesome faucet...I love this thing! Pull down on the nozzle part and it detaches to become a sprayer. Woo hoo! And yes...black granite countertops are very high maintenance...

I'm sure we are the eye sore of the neighborhood right now. With all the rain we've gotten, half of our dirt yard has washed away into the street. It made such pretty ripples though! :) This was during a walk to the mailbox...

Isn't this bag awesome!!! Kim gave it to me as part of my scrapbooking birthday gift. Love the saying, and will get a lot of use out of it...thanks Kim!!!!

Speaking of Kim...she works at the same company as I do now! And she lived through her first company luncheon, where she had to sing the hazing song! She did great! It was such a hoot! I was going to sneak some pictures of her doing it, but dog gone if she didn't REQUEST that I take some! Gotta love that!!

A little "pretty" from the bridal shower Kim threw for me. It turned out so nice, and Chris and I received so many nice things. I loved this frame that she put together of pics of Chris and I...and then at the end, she gave it to me! Love those pink and orange flowers too...sooooooo bright and fun!!

My mom was at the bridal shower, in spirit...she had Kim get some dinner mints and put her name on them, because she knows I have always loved them. She used to take me to all the showers when I was growing up, and I would eat these things like crazy. She is too cute!!

Proof that the tv remote control IS permantly attached to Aspen's hand. I captured this picture of her early one morning. She had slept on the couch, and just couldn't bear to let go of the remote before falling asleep...

Chris is 33! He wasn't in the best mood on his birthday, and that can be seen in his apparent dislike of one of his gifts! :) He's always saying he wants a Porsche, and this year I splurged and got him one!! Pretty and yellow and everything. :)

July 4th: we grilled out for the first time in our new house...in the middle of our HUGE dirt yard.

And this is a picture of the people who work with me in the Marketing Department...this was taken at the stadium when we went to see the Texas Rangers play, and when we saw Sammy Sosa hit #600...too much fun!

Back with actual house photos, once I take some! :)
