The house update...

So we found the house, you all know that. Finally after about three weeks of waiting, we got it appraised today. Now we can officially move in not knowing how much our house is worth, if we got a great deal on the house or totally screwed. I am pretty sure we got a good deal but you never know until it officially happens right? Well now the moving starts TOMORROW! Then we rush to unpack and find a refrigerator in time for Nathan's birthday party on saturday, which is held at our house. Yes, this means everyone is coming over to see Nathan and our house will be a complete disaster. Biggest fear? Everyone judging me and how my house looks. Is that stupid that i care what people think about my house? Charlie just spent a good half hour lecturing me that i shouldn't worry what everyone thinks about my house. But i can't help it. There is nothing like having someone come over and being impressed with something that involves you. And then there is the side where everyone that walks in leaves with that thought of, "what the helk did she do to her house. really? wow. she should hire someone to do that professionally." ugh. I hate decorating.

Awww... isn't she soooo cute!!!

Welcome to our family Roxy!!! This is our new baby, Roxy. We get to pick her up June 1st. we are sooo excited!!!

birthday continued...

ok. so i told you all that i would let you know how the rest of my birthday went. well we went to my dads and he i got a really cute card that michelle made with a hundred bucks (which was GREATLY appreciated). That night we came home and watched tv and went to bed. monday morning came and we proceeded to our normal days. we were bidding on a house that day and after bidding on so many you tend not to get your hopes up, especially when the house is in amazing condition and really big. well the day went pretty good. lunch time came around and i always call charlie to see how his day is going. i saw that he called me twice and left a voicemail (which he never does) so i called him back. oh and i should tell you i was waaayyy tired that day. here is how our conversation went...me, "hey hun." charlie, "baby whats wrong? are you sad?" "no, why?" "well you sound really sad?" "no i am just tired." "well did you get my voice mail?" "no i just saw that you called so i called you back why?" "oooohhh. so my voice mail isn't good enough for you?" "haha. no would you like me to hang up with you and check it?" "no...(using a very sad and depressed voice)"... a few moments of silence... me, "we got a house didn't we?"... charlie "YES!!!!" then i started screaming and jumping up and down telling everyone we own a house now. it was seriously the best birthday present ever!!!! it is a 2400 sq ft, 4 bed, 2 1/2 bath, a den, living room and family room. i am sooo excited. i can't wait to get everything done so i can put up before and after pictures! aaahhhh!!!

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

Ok. so here is how my birthday weekend all started...first i should say that i was getting pretty bummed cause i wanted to do a water balloon event Saturday with all my friends and family but half of them had things going on so i just decided not to do anything (plus with my birth control i have been EXTREMELY emotional and that did not help the fact that i was not going to celebrate my birthday). Then on Friday my husband called me at work being very frustrated. Here is how the conversation went.. "Kacee i just can't do it anymore!" "whats wrong baby? did something happen?" "Kacee, i wanted to surprise you for your birthday and have a surprise birthday party for you. but its just not working!!! everyone has to work or is busy or they aren't calling me back. will you please just do it?!" i proceeded from there to laugh at the fact my husband tried so hard to make me feel special but just couldn't hack the stress. so Friday night we went to top shelf and had dinner with his family and a few of my friends that were able to make it. Saturday we ran errands, went to my families annual mother's day picnic and then went to the movies and saw Ironman 2. (great movie by the way.) When we got home i decided to look for my birthday present. :) i figured i was getting close when my husband came running from the bathroom with the toothbrush still in his mouth screaming at me to go to bed and stop looking for my present so i decided to be a good little girl and just go to bed. Sunday we woke up and i convinced charlie to let me look for my present. which i found pretty quick. it was the spot i was just bending over to look behind when he came running out of the bathroom. haha. I WIN!!! when i opened my present i found BEAUTIFUL diamond earrings! uuuhhhhh! they are sooo gorgeous. then we got up to the smell of cinnamon french toast that my amazing roommates made. It was half for my birthday and half for mother's day for Julie. then we went to church and ditched out early to look at a couple houses. then came home to the kitchen decorated with streamers. now we are about to head to my dads house for tacos and more fun!! ill let you know what happens there later ;) so far a pretty good birthday weekend.
