More House Pics

Our wonderful realtor Stephanie (if you live in Starkville, I HIGHLY recommend her!!! Let me get you her number) suggested that I do some before and after pics of our house. It is a bit of a contrast from the previous owners. They kept it a bit messy which really hid the houses true potential. We are loving being home owners.
This is our bathroom BEFORE!!!!!

This is our master bathroom AFTER my dad painted!! We are thrilled to have a master bath again!!

This is our master bedroom before we painted with the previous owner's furniture still in it.

Our den, before we got the furniture in it!

We love our new couch. Super comfy.

Happy Birthday Dad!!!

Today is a very special man in my life's birthday... my dad!!! There is really no adequate way to explain how much I love my wonderful dad just as there are no words to describe how incredibly goofy and funny he is. He is called "funny man" by kids in our family, you never know if he is being serious or joking, but no matter what I know that I am his baby girl! He is the best Papa to our sweet nephew Jackson and we can't wait to see him with our kids one day. Happy Birthday Dad!! I will never forget standing with my dad in the back of the church on our wedding day. What a special time!! We love you and are looking forward to another great year ( try not to freak us out this year with the heart attack)

Pics of the new house

We have been getting many request for pictures of the house. I have a few to share today, but only because these rooms (master bedroom/bath & kitchen) are unpacked. The rest of the house is a work in progress. We are LOVING the new house and already feel like we have lived here forever.



So here is a sneak peak.

The Life of Albe

I know you are probably tired of hearing me talk about Albe, but I'm sorry, he keeps us entertained. Remember when I posted about Albe serious dislike for rain here. Well I have been looking for a little rain jacket for the fella to try and lessen the trauma he experiences everytime it rains (which seems to be a lot here lately). I lucked up at Tuesday Morning with a $5 find. The only problem was it was a little big. Albe loved it and we got a GREAT laugh, but the size made it not quite functional for the wet weather. He looked like a ghost. So cute.

Albe's wardrobe expanded again when I felt like he needed a sweater or shirt to keep him warm. In our new house we are leaving him in the rec room during the day and it gets pretty drafty. So I went to Tuesday Morning (remember shopping it limited here in Starkville) in search of a doggie sweater. The only thing they had was a Harley Davidson T-Shirt. Isn't he to cute!!!!
That's the last addition to his wardrobe. We are looking for a fun halloween costume we were inspired by a fellow blogger to get him a costume. Suggestions are welcome! Have a great day!!

We are home owners!!

Well blogging friends I have been withholding information from you. I guess we wanted to wait until everything was OFFICIAL! But as of about 4 pm this afternoon it is, Adam and I are HOMEOWNERS!!!! We are sooo excited. What a process! I don't have pics to share with you yet, but promise they will come soon along with more details, but couldn't keep this information to ourselves any longer.

Before I go... a bit ironic... our new address is Cardinal Lane. For those who read our blog much you will catch the connection to Adam's love (PASSION/OBSESSION) with the St. Louis Cardinals! It was meant to be!!

Happy Friday!

Happy Anniversary!!

Today is my wonderful parents 32nd anniversary and we are delighted to celebrate this day with them. Adam and I are so blessed to have such amazing legacies of faith and love in the marriages that surround us. Thank you mom and dad for setting such a wonderful example for us to follow!! We love you and can't wait to see you this weekend!

Its Her Birthday!!!

They say its her birthday..... Happy Happy Birthday!!!!

Happy Birthday to our wonderful sister Lisa.

I know we are a little on the cheesy side, but what can I say.

As Lisa enters her 24th year, Adam and I pray the Lord's richest blessings on her. This is an especially exciting year for Lisa as she will becoming Mrs. Patrick Lowery in just a few short months. We are thrilled. Happy Birthday sister!
