So far..

My 101 are going really well!

I've read 2 books already!
One was called "All Things Hidden" by Judy Candis. I picked up this book at
Barnes & Noble for only 4 bucks. I wasn't too sure about it, but I knew it
had crime and God in it! I was surprised at how well it was written
and how much I really liked it. The only thing was I wanted to know
how the outcome came for the main character. I hate it when books stop
like that. Leaves your mind wondering what the heck happened. It was worth
the read. The second book I read was "How Starbucks Saved My life" by
Michael Gates Gill. I read this one because my general manager suggested
that I read it. And aside from the colorful language it had, the book was
a great read about being satisfied with life and where you are. It also made
me want to learn coffee more with working at Starbucks. You know I don't
drink it and my attitude has been I don't really care about it{whole bean}.
But after reading this book, it made me want to learn all there is about
coffee. So I talked to my boss on Sunday and he suggested I call the
district manager. So I am going to do that. There are classes I
believe for learning about coffee.

I've also got 2 things in the works as well. Making an Americana quilt
and drum lessons! I am excited about both!!!! I've wanted a quilt for
our bed for a long time and the lessons will only aid in my becoming a
better percussionist! On another 101 note..

I've decided not to make my own invitations for our wedding. I would
be a stress of a mess making them so I went on the internet and looked. Found
them straight away! Isn't that cool? Here is an example of them:

Getting them through here. They are the exact colors going through my mind!
I am excited about them and Dayv loves them! Perfect. I think a lot about our
wedding and am really getting very excited! I love the thoughts in my head
and how I realized I can do whatever I want, how I want because its our wedding!

Okay so...

I wished I had the patience of Job. However I do not. So this past weekend
D&I made the pillows for our new couches! I am in LOVE with them! The
room is looking more cozier and cozier! I loved how we worked together on them
as well! I sewed 4 pillows, he sewed 2 and he also whip stitched them closed.
We decided already against the green we had picked out, its too dark. Maybe
a little shade, like olive or something. But honestly green isn't our favorites.
I am hoping that Debbie has some great color schemes! I cannot wait!! I will
take photos when the LR is finished completely!

Also this past weekend when the sun peeked out I made D let me take
some photos of him and his trumpet.
That's right! He's taking trumpet lessons! He just decided one
day to take lessons and he's actually pretty good!!
{Yep that's our new plaid chair!!!! Notice the stark white walls,
I am SO over them!!!}





And just because she is a cutie and I love taking photos of her...

This is Kira, which I am sure you all know about! She is a such a wonderful dog!

My aunt and her husband are coming to see us!!! She came last year to take my
mom back to FL and was able to see our house on base, and now is going to see
our new house too!!! I am so excited to be able to have them come. They will be
here pretty much right after we arrive home from Disney! It works out really
well cause D&I took leave until the 27th. So we'll have days to spend with them!

Well that about raps it up for me today! Debbie will be here soon and I am pretty
darn excited about that too! I hope that you are just as excited as I am in your
today as I am in mine! Happy day!!!!
