Patio in Progress

Yesterday my loving Husband and Father-in-law started work on our future patio. I am so excited and can't wait to see the finished product! They were able to pull up all the grass for the outline of the patio and had capped off all the water sprinklers, where the patio will be covering. Next weekend my parents are going to come for the weekend and start helping us lay down the pavers.

Matthew's Dad is an architect major and he drew up an awesome design of what our patio will look like. It will include a covered area as we walk out of the door, and then to the right of the patio, it will be empty for now, but eventually have a hot tub (maybe) and then further out, centered there will be a spot for a fire place. I can't wait to see how it will all turn out, and I will definatly post pictures! It is going to be so much fun to have company over and hang out and relax outside on the patio!

Here are two pictures. One is a before picture and the other is a picture of what they had accomplished the first day!

Blogger New-be

Well, I am very new to this whole blog world, but I've known of a few people who do blog, and I like to sneak a peak at other bloggers blogs. I always thought however that I shouldn't do a blog until I have kids, because I figured most people enjoy reading the blogs that have to deal with kids (or at least I do), because lets face it... Kids are more interesting than adults! Maybe that's why I work with them?

Anyways, I figured for the time being this blog can be about mine and Matthew's journey of being married and starting our life together.

We have just celebrated our 1st Anniversary this past weekend and I cannot believe that it has already been a whole year since we said "I do!" It has truly been the best year of my life and I couldn't imagine being with anybody else. We were talking on the day of our Anniversary saying how we wanted to do it all over again, because it was just so much fun, and of course I want to wear my wedding dress again. I am so excited to have been married for a year and I can't wait to say that I have been married to my Husband for 50 years!

Well, hopefully I can keep up with this blogging stuff, and that everything I write won't be so boring!


Here is a picture of us on our wedding day, after we were announced Husband and Wife! :)
