Monday morning...already?

What a weekend! What a week! Last week was pretty crazy but I got a lot of stuff accomplished like finally organizing and cleaning my office! Which is really hard when you don't have any bookshelves or file cabinets, but thanks to the suggestion of Kristen, I bought some baskets and neatly organized papers and books in them and it actually looks quite decent. It sure is nice not having boxes piled up in our office anymore, that's for sure.

Alex has applied for a business loan so he can work from home and be his own boss, which he is very good at. We are very confident that he is going to get it. It will be so great for both of us.

Saturday, Alex and I just hung out being goofy and watched some funny, yet painful episodes of Curb your enthusiasm, but it was good to have a day just to ourselves, even though we would have loved to hang out with others.

Sunday was very busy, church was really good and afterwards we went to a birthday lunch for my friend Hannah, that was fun. Her mom asked me to be in charge of the birthday decor, it's much harder at a restaurant than it would be at someone's home but I did what I could;). I ate so much at the luncheon I had to take a nap when I got home. A few hours later we went over to David and Christin's house for dinner, which was a blast. Alex is so obsessed with baby's it cracks me up. Anytime he saw their 8 month old, he automatically snatched him up so he could hold him before anyone else, it really is quite a site;).

I'm loving the cold weather, I'm just really hoping it stays cooler, My basil temperature has risen and I can't handle the heat any longer. Plus I love fall/winter. Oh it's going to be such a great winter! It rained for a few minutes on Saturday and it put a smile on my face, I love the rain. We need more of it!

Well, that's all for now.

Dream House

This is the house Alex and I would love to have, it is perfect in every way...except the price. There is one option for us to buy the house and that's if one of them goes into foreclosure. One of these houses is already for sale by owner because they couldn't afford the house anymore.

This is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom house with a huge kitchen and 2 seating rooms and a fireplace. It also has a large backyard. The inside is absolutely beautiful. High ceilings, beautiful lighting fixtures, soft carpet, it even has a laundry room...specifically for laundry, with a hook up and a sink and lots of cabinets. I think this room could make me enjoy laundry...;)

In the master bathroom there is a make up vanity built in with a curling iron holder built in the table! And it has a jacuzzi style tub and two sinks and a huge walk in closet that could be a little bedroom, actually I think it may be the same size as our second bedroom in our apartment. It's huge. I love it! We are absolutely drooling over this house. We have been to see these houses at least a dozen times. Sometimes when we have nothing else to do, we'll just come over here to see the house. They have a model open so you can look inside anytime and I love being inside there.

Back to Blogging

Well this is my first attempt back at blogging. I know I haven't blogged in a long time but hopefully I can do it a little more regularly now.

In case some of you don't know, I am 5 months pregnant.;) We are having a little girl March 10th.
Her name is Alexandria Victoria Branning. Alex and I are so happy!

God has really been teaching Alex and I alot throughout this process. It is amazing to see so many things through different eyes.

I don't have a whole lot to say today but I just wanted to jump back in there, hopefully more to come soon. I definitely have the time.
