Summer Time

Well, it's officially HOT here. At 7:30 tonight, the temperature in my car still said 100F! Been a while since I've updated this thing, again, I apologize. Maybe I should start calling this my monthly blog, lol. Anyhow, so what's been going on with us?

Well, we've kind of decided to put things "on hold" as far as wedding planning goes, for many reasons which I'm not going to go into detail about, but it's nothing bad. Until we know where, we're not going to say when, because weather may end up playing a factor. So the possiblity of Vegas and November may still be an option, but we're not ruling out local locations and spring time. Actually, we went and looked at the venues on Petit Jean Mt yesterday. I'll try to keep everyone updated as we work things out. But yes we ARE still getting married! Like I said, this isn't a bad thing, we just don't have ANY details planned and before you know it it's right around the corner!

On to other stuff....

Jake has got to spend a lot of time with Nanny and Grandpa lately! He's one spoiled rotten child that's for sure! But he's happy and that's all that matters right?? LOL

Summer school has started and first term is almost already over! I really do love summer school though. I wish all my classes moved by this fast! I'm taking two more classes next summer session, then I'm still on schedule to graduate in the fall, YAY!!

I've been looking for a part time job recently. I've given my resume to a few organizations like Big Brothers and Big Sisters and the Boys and Girls Club, but I don't know if anybody is hiring. From what I hear it's EXTREMELY hard to get a job! If you hear of anything up my alley please let me know.

Tom and I had our engagement pictures made last month. We also had some family pictures made while we were at it. They may still be available to view online, feel free to check them out www.studioyounique.com ,my or your photos (I can't remember which one it says)go to my name, then the password to view them is Vegas. The one of Tom and Jake is absolutly precious, I love those guys!

We've been doing some house hunting. With my favorite of them selling while Tom was still "thinking about it." And it's not the one on the previous post, although I did like that house, it was way overpriced. The one I was really in love with was on Crow Mountain, with an awesome view. **SIGH** I'll post some pictures of some of my runner-ups. Again, if you know of any FSBO properties you think we might be interested in, please let me know.

So, I got a second interview with a job that I would LOVE to have, wish me luck on that please. It would be a perfect job! I get to work with a child, it's part time, and the people seem very nice. I was really nervous though, I can't remember the last time I actually went for an interview! :S

So lets get to some pics, first I want to post some of the house that I feel we totally let get away...









So, MAYBE the current offer will fall through and I can convince Tom this is the house I HAVE to have! Don't you love it??!

Ok, now I'm posting some pictures of Petit Jean. Do you think I could make this place look like a wedding chapel???







And last but not least, here's some pictures of Stephanie's wedding that was on June 6th in Hot Springs, wasn't it beautiful?!? And YOU look beautiful Steph!













I guess that's about all I can think of for now. Hope all you guys had a good Father's Day. I'm pretty sure Tom did, but I'm sure he'd rather have been with his little man though. But he'll get to actually see him tomorrow, he's thrilled. So until next time.....take care all!

House Hunting

So, we went and looked at a house today that I LOVE! I wanted to share some pics. The house can be bought with the property that it sits on, 2 acres....Or it can be bought with a total of 5 acres....OR with a total of 10 acres! It's on a dead end road, which is wonderful. There is a pond across the street and one included in the additional property. It's about 2400 sq ft with a detached workshop/garage also. So, here's some pics....please, feedback will be GREATLY appreciated!!

Catch Up Time

Well, school's done for the semester, time to catch up this blog! So, what have we all been up to lately? I'm gonna have to think about that for a minute, lol! Lets see, at the end of April we went to Disney on Ice at Alltel, that was OK. I think Jake really liked though. He liked the FIFTEEN dollar peter pan sword that did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING better than the whole show though. Here's a few from that...





My friend Stephanie is getting married in a couple of weeks so we had her wedding shower the weekend before last...the food was awesome! I didn't even have room for CAKE! She's having her bachelorette party this weekend in Memphis. So for the first time ever (I think!) Tom is keeping Jake for me to have a "pleasure" (as opposed to business) weekend! Keep checking back for those pictures....they may be interesting! But for now, here's a few from the shower, and one from the night before.






Yesterday, Tom and I had our engagements pictures made at the Old Mill in Little Rock. Of course I'm extremely anxious to see those! We had a whole bunch made with Jake too, it was our first family portrait session together! We'll be able to view them online when they get posted, message me for the website and password if you want to see :)

Funny, since it's been so long I thought I'd have a lot to write about, but honestly, I can't think of anything! All I'm doing now is waiting, rather impatiently, for grades to be posted. I can't believe they're not yet, NONE of them are! Oh well....maybe tomorrow. Alright, I'm gonna go update my myspace now, since it's been forever since I've done that too! So, until next time......have a great day!
