OK, for real this time.....

I'm back. I've been neglecting you like the plague but seriously this time I'm back. Life has been good. We just celebrated our 2 month wedding anniversary (with mexican food and margaritas no less) and things are great!!

Quiky updates:

Brandon is still in the process of getting hired on with Harris County Sheriff's Department. He passed his polygraph back on April 1, and today the detective is coming to do a house inspection. I'm assuming to make sure we have no bodies or drugs lying around :) He was supposed to come yesterday but the weather in Houston has been crappy and he wasn't able to make it out.

I restarted working for Macy's again. I however am working in the Estee Lauder counter and it's soooo much fun!! I mean make-up is every girl's dream right? So I get to play with it every night I work!! I really love it, even more so than my real job?? I would love to be able to move up in the world of Lauder and be a big wig!! THat would be SUHWEET!!! I'll be posting on here some of my fav makeup that we have as I try them out!! Here's the first to meet the blog. It's our new Double Wear Creme eyeshadow. This stuff I swear sticks to your lids for 15+ hours. I put it on one night, fell asleep with it on and it looked like I had just put it on. This stuff is awesome!! It comes in a variety of colors, and did I mention the shimmer factor?? It has TONS!! I love my eyeshadows that shimmer, and this has it full force!! Best to use a concealer brush to apply it and blend with your finger. I'm not used to creme shadows so this takes a little getting used to but it's an amazing find!!

Other happenings in our lives.....nothing too much. Just trying to settle in and get this married life down pat! hehe I mean that in the best way possible, I SWEAR!! I'm just having a hard time figuring and sorting out coming home and cooking supper, doing laundry cleaning up. Things like that. Hubs helps out which is good, but I really want to cook for him. I just have to get my routine down and now going back to Macy's puts a damper on that, but we'll figure it out. We are the best team and work great together.

Both of my Sister in laws are having babies within a month of each other!! I'll be having 2 littles nieces a month apart!! I cannot wait!!! THis should cure whatever ounce of baby fever I have in me for sure!!! :) We had Brandon's sisters' baby shower this past Sunday and it was a success!! I made my infamous spinach dip and everyone loved it!! She got alot of adorable baby clothes and the hostesses made a big basket of neccesities for her as well as $300 to put towards a crib.

I know one thing. I am in dire need of a vacay. I just want to get out this town for a while and see some new scenery!! My wish may come true if all goes well with Macys and I can get off the last weekend of May. Brandon has a friend that lives in Point Pleasant, WV and we may be road tripping it up there. I have off from my real job, just have to get off from Macys. Apparently getting a weekend off from there is a big deal, but we'll see how it will work.

I'm really also wanting us to go to Europe. I know not anytime soon would be doable but maybe for our 1 year anniversary?? We are just dying to go to Germany and Czech Republic. I want to take train rides back and forth and get to see the beautiful landscapes and mountains and scenery. Hopefully we can work something out and save up our money and go. I was pricing tickets just for the fun of it and it may not be too too bad. We'll just have to see.

Other than that, nothing too too exciting. Being married is great and we love every second of it. It seems like we have been married for forever but then we still find it funny to call each other husband and wife sometimes, in a good way, I didn't mean that bad at all!! I just feel soo lucky to be married to my best friend and I get to spend every day with him. I am truly blessed to have him!!

It's Official......

I'm a MRS.!!!!!! (and funny thing, MRS is now my initials, heehe) but yes, as of 4 o'clock this past Saturday, February 28, 2009 I became Mrs. Brandon S.!!!! I am soooo excited!!! My husband was too totally handsome and when I saw him for the first time while heading down the aisle, my heart skipped a beat and I fell in love with him all over again. I knew at that moment I was at the exact spot I should be in. I loved our entire ceremony, it was soo romantic, sweet and very personal to us. The music that we had chosen, the scripture that was read and the vows that we wrote just made the ceremony, our ceremony. I could re-live the whole ceremony over and over again, it was so magical for me.

I have a few non-pro pics taken by my cousin and sister in law. Here's the link:

Blubbering mess.....

I think everything is starting to get to me. I started secretly wigging out last night because FI is having a bachelor party and I dont' know why I was getting so upset. I totally trust him, I know he won't do anything stupid, I totally know that and believe that. We both said in the beginning that we didn't want one, and now his Best Man is giving him one, which is totally fine. I guess all my old insecurities just got the best of me. I've been griping at him lately about stupid crap and I feel horrible about it, it's not his fault. The other day I apologized to him about it, but he understands, he knows I am busy and I don't mean it, cause I don't. I don't realize that I'm doing when I do, but later on I realize that I am, and I feel just horrible. I hate that. I don't want to be like that towards him especially with this being that last few days that we are an engaged couple.

I'm totally over it now. Totally done and over being upset about his bachelor party and all this other crap too. And this sounds soo dumb, but I was looking at this amazing wedding photographers blog, http://www.nicolechathamphotography.com/ and just looking at the pics of her weddings and the couples and crying my friggin eyes out, just made me realize, this other crap doesn't matter. Who cares that he's going out, we are going to be married and that's all that matters. Who cares that my mom is stressing me out more than the actual wedding is. Who cares that we have soo many programs to make and I don't feel like doing it, and that everyday my mom keeps adding more and more shit onto her list. I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!!!!!

The only thing I care about is being Brandon's wife. I am in love with an amazing man, and I don't deserve him. He gives me more love than I could ever ask for and he's the bestest friend that I've ever had and ever will have. I can't wait to begin our lives together. I cannot absolutely wait to have a family with him and hopefully our children will have his beautiful blue eyes and wonderful laugh and thick hair =) I think I am just over come with soo much joy and thankfulness right now. Next week is the beginning of our wonderful life together. I am just soo ready and have been sooo ready for this journey to begin. It's going to be magical, it's going to fun, it'll be a rollercoaster, but we will be on it together, side by side, as one.

T-minus 10 days....and counting

Sooooo the wedding is 10 day, 10 DAYS AWAYS!!!! All the big stuff has been done. The last bridesmaids dress was purchased last night, HALLELUJAH!!! We are now finishing up the programs (150 done, 40 more to go!) and our aisle runner needs to be done and gifts need to be bought and bagged and thats pretty much it!!! I'm getting soo excited even though my mother is stressing me out. I love her to death but good lord she knows how to stress me out waaaay to much!!! I can't wait for this all to be over with and everything goes back to normal!!!

I still do need to get a card for Brandon for the wedding (i'm contemplating making him one, or going with a hallmark one, he loves it when I make him stuff, so I may just do that!). I also need to get a card for my parents and for my aunt and uncle who are doing our rehearsal dinner!!

I'm really nervous about the rehearsal. I hope that everyone pays attention and listens to what we want to have done. We ahve soo many people in our wedding party (mainly kids) but luckily their parents will be there, so hoepfully they will control their children, hehehehe :)

I still need to see if I can get brandons grandma to fix my petticoat. when I Had my bridals done a few weeks ago, I noticed that the hem was unravelling and it was all a hot mess!!! Soo that needs to be tended to, not that anyone would see it, but I would just feel better about it.

I feel bad lately cause I've been feeling like I've been griping at Brandon non stop, and I don't mean anything by it, I think I'm just stressed, and I'm gonna try to pay more attention to what I say to him. I don't want him to end up hating me after all this!!! hehe Not that he would. He does understand that I'm stressed out, thank goodness. He's such a great guy!!! I honestly feel like the luckiest gal in the world!!! I can't believe that I found someone that loves me as much as I love them and wants to be with me for the rest of our lives!!!!! It still amazes me everyday, and I just feel soo utterly blessed that we found each other, and are going to spend the rest of our lives together. We cannot wait!!!

The past two weeks

have sucked major ass hole!!!!!! Fi's mom went into the hospital on the 13. She was throwing up blood and they found a tear in her esophagus and a blood clot in her stomach. A few days later they found a huge varicose vein in her stomach, no bueno. I feel soo sorry for her. She's supposed to get released today to go home. She had a procedure yesterday where they put a shunt in to bypass the flow of blood to the varicose vein so that it will go down in size. I hope to god it works.

I've just super stressesd about that, and worrying about FI and how he's handling all of it. He doesn't talk about it and when I ask him he doesn't want to talk about it. So I just leave him be. I just think it's better to discuss it if something is bothering you, but apparently not him on this subject. ANy other thing, he'll tlak about but not this. One thing that worries me about him is that he doesn't tell his mom he loves her. She'll say it to the both us and I'll say it back, but he doesn't. I know he does, but I guess he's just not one to say it to his family. He says it to me all the time which I love,but I dont' know why it's soo hard for him to say it to them?? And I don't know if this is something that should bother or if it's something I should confront him about. He doesn't even give them hugs or anything he never has. His grandma told me he's been like that since he was little. I don't know why.

The wedding stuff is getting to me. I'm not doing boudoir pictures anymore which I'm really sad about. I just don't have that kind of money to spend when we need it for other stuff. Like rehearsal dinner, caterer, decorations, gifts for people, favors, invites, things like that. PLUS finding a place for us to live!!! UGGH a nightmare!!! I think we are just going to get an apartment in baytown and be done with it. Rent is sky high, but what can you do?? I woudl rather have a rent house, but they are sky high as well too. It friggin sux. THis economy sux, no one can buy houses so they have to rent which in turn allows the rentee's to put whatever type of pricetag they want to on the rental property!!! It's stupid and dumb.

FI and I did drive out to Liberty this past weekend, and we totally want to move there. It's the cutest little town that actually has a main street that surrounds the court house and then it also has the most adorbale homes ever!!!!! That's exactly what we want too!! it'll make my commute longer, but I don't care, i already drive 40 miles there and back, whats an extra 20?? Maybe by the time we move out there, I'll be working somewhere else anyways, who knows.

I'm sad I haven't barely been able to read any of my book I started a while back. I'm probably gonig to have to start over from the beginning so I can remember everything that I've already read.

I want to start on my DIY projects now. I want to get them finished and just be done with them. I think the reason I keep putting them off is because I keep thinking "oh i have time" blah blah whatever, stop procrastinating DAVIS AND JUST DO IT!!!! =) I'm a horrible procastinator, but God help me, I get my stuff done, even if it is last minute. but I don't want to be like that for the wedding. I want to have everything done so that I can enjoy it and not be stressed out about having to hurry and get stuff done!!!

I've got to get my happy butt back into a workout routine. I totally blame IKE for messing it up. I was doing sooo good!! Jogging like 3-4 times a week!!! I had even gotten up to 4.2 miles!!!! And FI was noticing and thats a HUGE plus to me!!! I have got to get back on it!! and it sux!! i'm stressing about how my dress may not fit, I am considering getting a corset put in the back so it'll be like that instead of zipped up. Maybe that iwll also help with the back fat issue too!! =)

Ok, i'm done =)
