Bead Board Madness

Okay, it's not Bead Board Madness but it's definitely coming together. Looking better each day and still working out the kinks. BTW, no we're not moved in yet. Maybe this weekend? We have moved the majority of our boxes and quite a bit of furniture but haven't made the leap.

The Writings On The Wall

We tried on the chalkboard wall today and I'm very pleased with the results. Ryan wishes the wall was smooth but in our house you'll never find that (well, except the new drywall in the bathroom). I can't wait to write my "to do" list and nightly menu. Yes, I love organization and this is awesome.

Game Day

It's the opening game of the 2009 football season and our neighborhood is overflowing with tailgators. The stadium is a couple blocks from our house so we were in the heart of all the action. We took Harrison for a walk to witness all the crazy college football fans. He had a good time but decided it was a better perspective to have Ryan carry him than ride in this stroller. We had to call it quits shortly afterwards because 25 pounds of a wiggling baby is exhausting.

Subconsciously, I must really like El Caminos. This is the second one I've featured on the blog. Hmm.

Bring On The Guac

A friend suggested I order the guacamole tonight because it's quite tasty and part show. The waiter wheeled a tray in front of us and scooped out two avocado then I got to decide yah or nah on the onions, tomatoes, jalapenos, cilantro and fresh lime juice. I went for the works and it was pretty good. But I must say Ryan's is my favorite which is pretty funny b/c he's never tried it before. He used to be a REALLY picky eater but after almost 9 years together he's getting more adventurous taste buds. Maybe by 2010, he'll try it but then again I'd have to share it :)

Draft This

Ryan has played Fantasy Football for several years and I always wanted him to draft Tom Brady but he's never gotten him. Last year, I became part of a league and was SO excited. Unfortunately, the draft was during Harrison's bedtime so I randomly shouted down players I had heard of, while Ryan was on the computer downstairs. I was able to get my star quarterback but the rest of my team sucked. For those of you who don't know, Brady suffered a season ending injury in the FIRST GAME! Ahhhh, my team went straight down hill from there. Even our cat Lucy beat me that year.

Well, I'm back this year and I'm feeling good about the team. Brady is my star again and I think I'll have a few secret weapons. I'm the only girl in the league so I need to represent.

It's Moving Along

Drywall is now complete. I drove up after work tonight to prime the walls. It was a project that shouldn't have taken too long but did. On another note, it's the beginning of the month and we're not moved in yet. However, I'm guessing within the next week we'll have enough finished to move in furniture.

Me Likey

I'm obsessed with clean edging. I love how clean and fantastic it looks once completed. Two of my co-workers know people who trim it with SCISSORS. I can be a little anal but can you imagine?
