More progress at our new casa...

New updates on the house!! Changes happen every HOUR!!! Soon it will be HOME :)

The brick...the roof is still being put on, I guess it takes a while for a tile roof to be put on...they have been putting it on for a LONG TIME!!!!!! Also, they have not acid washed the brick, so when that is done it will be a little darker.

The Island...this side book shelves
....this side cabinets and a trash cabinet
most of the cabinetry put in....Burnt Sienna (the UGLY color in a box of crayons), but the color of my cabinets which I love :) they also have an ebony stain on them as well
My vanity area in the Master Bath...same cabinet color and stain :)
Our desk area
only part of the laundry room...here you can see the wall color with the trim color :)
the mantle in our bathroom...they painted the bathroom the wrong color....OOPS...they are fixing that soon :)
The crosses ceiling in the dining room...the molding is not up yet and they also painted this room the wrong color!!!!!!!!!!!! We also have our wine room off the dining room...I will post pictures of that when they finish the built-ins and put the wrought iron door up :)

Staircase...they have put the banister up, but not stained it yet
The back of the house
One of our new little friends....the lake is stocked with what ever kind of fish that is...I can't wait till we get our boat and we can cruise around the lake ;)
Du as Mason would say :)

I was TAGGED

10 yrs ago:
10 years ago it was just a few weeks from spring break my senior year of high school. I pride myself on having a great memory, but I am at a loss trying to remember what I did on spring break of my senior year. However, I do know I was for the first time SINGLE my senior year (but only for a little bit) I met Marcus the summer before college and the rest is history......

Things on my to-do list today:
Well since I am typing this at 9:30pm I plan on going to dream land pretty soon, but tomorrow:
1. Houston Zoo
2. Choose MORE things for the house (built-ins, stain, who knows what else?!?!?!)
3. Look for Mason some Easter pants
4. Work on trips for my travel agent career :)
5. Since it is not tomorrow yet....my list may grow by leaps and bounds :)

What would I do if I became a billionaire:
1. Share
2. Travel
3. Travel
4. Travel
5. Share
6. Vacation ;)

Three of my bad habits:
1. Biting my nails...that is why I always have fake ones :)
2. Going over my cell minutes
3. Forgetting to lock my car door (no Mason is NEVER left in the car!)

Five jobs I have had:
1. 4th and 5th grade teacher
2. Sonic (got LAID OFF....I was too young however Laura had to quit...she was my transportation to work :)
3. Pizza Hut (the tips were great...I worked in the restaurant one I was not a delivery girl..however, Laura do you remember interviewing with Crystals for delivery????
4. YMCA caretaker person after school in Lubbock
5. Texas Tech Ticket Office for sports

Five things people don't know about me:
1. I am a LIGHT sleeper
2. If I am in trouble I am not going down alone :) (LAURA...ring any bells)
3. I was in speech when I was in elementary school
4. I drank HOLY water...thanks to my sister AKA: TOILET water :(
5. I love to TRAVEL :) Well you may have got that one already...too tired can't think of another one!
