still alive, just not the best blogger

so i guess i suck at blogging. adam and i have moved into our newly renovated house FINALLY, it only took about 10 years to get it done. we still have a few projects here and there but the bulk of the grunt work is finished and we love our new house, it's so much better than renting :) i own two cameras but never seem to carry one with me ever! therefore, i do not document my life in any shape or form so the following pictures are from my mom's computer. i need to get better at taking pictures before i have children so they know i love them ha. when i do get around to taking some pictures i'll get some afters photos of our home to post.

first up....
my beautiful mom turned 50, shhh don't tell her i published that information on the internet. so, we threw her a surprise debutaunt birthday party, but called it a "DEBBIEtaunt" (her name is debbie, hence the play on words). what is a debutaunt one might ask "a young woman making a formal debut into society" according to the french dictionary or in other words like a sweet sixteen party. she didn't want to feel old, so we threw her the opposite kind of party. it was very fun, we all dressed up in our pretties and adam dressed up as a pimp, don't ask me why...

i'm so hooked

just finished the second book in the series and it was just as good as the first. the problem is the third and final book doesn't come out until august! i'm dying. please please please if you have a suggestion for a good book let me know! i need something to pass my time at work. thanks :)

p.s. adam and i are still renovating our house we bought at the first of april. it's taking FOREVER but is looking so beautiful! i can't wait to post the before and after pics, they will knock your socks off! also can't wait to move in, hopefully just one more week.

hungry for a good read? :)

now that i don't have homework to do i needed a good book to help pass my time at work. i stared reading this and haven't been able to put it down, it's fabulous! i plan on starting the second book when i finish but i'm sure i'll read that one fast too so if anyone has suggestions for another great read please do share!

hallelujah!

yesterday i graduated and the feeling of relief was even more than i had expected! after i finished my last final on wednesday i just walked down the hall with the biggest grin on my face. i can't believe i'm done with school, i don't think it will hit me until monday when i get to sleep in instead of going to my marketing class. my grandparents flew up from sunny california to come to my graduation, they're so great i love them so much! my family all came to support. it was a great day and i've had lots and lots of ice cream and junk this weekend to celebrate :)

37 days

i'm starting down the countdown. only 37 more days till i...
GRADUATE!!!
i've got senioritis, bad. can't wait for that glorious day on april 30th. it can't come soon enough!

poor poor adam

adam just had surgery on his foot a couple weeks ago. this summer he tore a his lisfranc ligament (betcha haven't heard of that one before) while playing flag football. after months and months of an ugly purple ball on this top of his foot it wasn't healing right so we went to see a specialist. come to find out he needed to have surgery so that's exactly what he did. the x ray looks like frakenstein's foot with a plate and about 8 screws, they had to fuse the bones together. so poor poor adam is in a cast for 10 weeks and on crutches for 6 weeks. it's killing him to be so sedentary but he's a champ and takin it like a man! he's also getting very familiar with the bathtub.

california trip

the week after christmas adam and i went to california with my parents and sister kk to visit my grandparents in huntington and my grandparents in newport. it was a much needed break that was so delicious to my soul! we had lots of fun shopping, playing scrabble and integrity, eating to our hearts content and spending time with the fam. my grandparents are the cutest couple, we love visiting them at their beautiful beach house! i ran on the beach everyday, PURE BLISS! much better than the treadmill i've become accustomed to the past few months. as always i'm the worst at taking pictures, but i managed to snag a few here and there. even though it wasn't terribly warm there it was so nice to escape the cold and wear short sleeves. anyone else ready for spring? i've been ready since november. we left katie down there to live with my cute cousin erica. we miss her lots!
