Tulips??

What an awesome weekend we had!  Me & Brian checked out the Home & Garden Show in Clovis on Saturday.  Let me just say I cannot wait to get into our house and start decorating/painting/drive Brian crazy.  I love making a house a home and I can't wait to put things on the walls of a house that we will OWN! 
I also love love love the outdoors.  I could not be more thrilled that this house we are buying has an already awesome back yard with LOTS of possibilities.  Oh AND a patio!  I love relaxing on the back porch on a beautiful summer night.
So we saw a lot of awesome things at this show and got some great ideas.  The one I am MOST excited about is a new greenhouse in Clovis called Traci's Greenhouse.  She had a booth at the Home & Garden show and I can't wait to check out her store.  I have a feeling we will be spending a fair amount of money there!  Not only does she have gorgeous plants, but she also has outdoor decor, even jewelry!  Right up my alley.
I could not be more excited to plant some.

I found her on Facebook and she had this picture up of some beautiful tulips.  Tulips!!  I didn't really think I liked Tulips till I saw this picture.
I really can't wait to visit this store.
As you can see, she has some fabulous stuff.
Here is the link to her Facebook page - -


Anywho, I am just so excited about this house and I can't wait to make it ours!  We have so many plans for it already and I just can't wait to get started.  I may have even packed one box today.  Just one though!! :)

Home suweet home... hopefully

I'm the worst.  I start things and don't finish.  Whoa is me...
I was reading someone else's blog and decided Brian & I are going through a lot here lately, so I better blog about it.
So, like I said, A LOT has gone on in just the last couple of weeks alone.  Right now we are living in a rent house that Brian's grandmother owns (MUCH more room than our previous apartment).  But, alas, it is time to grow up and join the real world.  Time to purchase our first home.  I was on that like white on rice.  I scoured the world wide web looking for local listings and found a few that suited our needs.  Spent a day walking around people's homes and found the house that was calling our names!  Had everything we were looking for plus some.  Best part?  Oh ya, we'll be neighbors with our good friends Zack and Shari.  Can I get a woot, woot!!??
The outside of our soon-to-be-home!

So, the ball is officially rolling on this sucker, just gotta wait on the loan peeps and sign some papers.  With the help of the good Lord, (and some decent credit) this house will soon be ours!  I just can't wait to decorate, it has some g.o.r.g.e.o.u.s wood floors.
Obviously not our furniture, but look at the floor!  Soo pretty.
