Okay this is our bedroom so far. Since Nathan punched a whole in the wall we've decided to paint it fairly soon. We're thinking a tan color. We just got the curtains hung up the other day. I love the curtains! They turned out awesome and are the perfect fabric for our bedroom. There are still a few more things I want to do for the room. Like, I'm going to make a table runner for my vanity which isn't in any of the pictures because it doesn't look very nice right now. Also, Nathan's going to attempt to make some nightstands for us. I think he's a little jealous of me being all crafty and having so many projects so he wants to try it out and make something for us. Right now we only have one nightstand and it's super ugly. I have a couple lamps picked out at Gordmans I want to get after he makes them. Oh, and I started today. Sucks. I blame it on being in Salina for those five days right after I ovulated. Well, we'll be working extra hard this month on making a baby. Should be fun!

The pictures are a little out of order. It's been a while since I've posted anything and I have some cool things to post. The most exciting thing is the dishwasher! I love it! We just got it put in yesterday. They were awesome! And, it's really nice to have the washing machine in the garage next to the dryer. We're planning on putting some countertops in next. The guy that did our plumbing gave us the name and number of a guy that I guess does an awesome job and doesn't charge a lot. We were pretty thankful for that. Oh, the picture of Alex in the big box is our dishwasher box. The plumber brought it in and cut little windows in it. Alex loves it. There are a couple pics from Jenna's wedding too. Don't Nathan and I look hot together. Oh, and when I got back from watching Jilli and Josh, Nathan had my laptop waiting for me. So, that's what I'm typing on right now. It's so awesome! I think Nathan's gotten a lot more use out of it than I have. He even put a gun picture as the background. I'm just glad he wasn't upset at my reaction. Which was, "are you kidding me"! He changed it back right after that. I made some curtains for our bedroom. They look awesome and go perfect in our bedroom. I'm going to post pictures of them as soon as the Nathan gets the other curtain rod up. He got a little frustrated hanging the first one. The hardware they have with it was really crappy and kept breaking on him so he punched a hole in the wall. He had to patch it up and it takes a long time for the putty stuff to dry. So, I'm hoping he'll get the other one hung today. He ran out to lowes and got some better quality hardware and the other one went up so easily. Nathan's being all crafty and is going to try and make us some nightstands. Next, we'll have to paint in our room. Oh, and I found the perfect border at lowes to put up in Alex's room. It has like three different fighter jets on it and as soon as Alex saw it he got so excited. So, I think we'll get paint to match it. I can't decide where to hang it though. Any suggestions? Oh, I've kind of started on Alex's costume and the fabric I got is awesome. It's so soft and it's going to look super cute. Nathan's going on an overnight charter flight tomorrow night so I think I'll work on it more then. His job seems to be going really good lately. I think he's been feeling a lot more appreciated and needed. Oh, and I'm supposed to get a visit from aunt flo around the 21st so hopefully she doesn't come to visit. I think I'm going to be really upset if she does. We've been seeing babies everywhere lately and I really want a new little baby. I know Alex will love having a brother or sister. Oh, and since this is probably the last baby we'll have Nathan and I decided we want to wait and see what it is. Especially since neither one of us really care either way. Keep your fingers crossed for us. Oh, and Joy you need to get preggers too!

Okay, finally, these are the pictures from our trip! Sorry it took so long to post them. I feel like our life is endlessly busy. Anyway, we had a really great time. The pictures are not in order by the way. First thing we did after we got checked into our hotel room was find the closest panda express and we went there to eat. We went to Joe's Crab shack for dinner and I gave Nathan his surprise. Which was a new ring. His old one gets scratched up really easily and he was kind of jealous of Jason's super cool ring. So, I figured this was the perfect time to get him one. The next day we went to Sea World. That was our favorite part of the whole trip. It was awesome! It's like a giant water zoo with rides. Way better than the one in San Antonio and Nathan says better than the one in San Diego too. We met Nathan's old roommate and his wife for dinner that night. The next day we went to a super nice mall. It has all kinds of crazy stores that I could barely afford to step foot in. Like, Lui vitton(sp?), Gucci, Tiffanys,jimmi choo. Crazy! I went into Lui vitton and Tiffanys. One guy in Tiffany's was so nice and came up and asked me if I needed help when everyone can tell I can't afford a thing in that store. After that we made the best mistake ever. We plugged into Nathan's gps on his phone to find the closest movie theatre. We wanted to see the Bourne Ultimatum. It took us down this street that turned into a funnel to 11 dollar parking garages for universal studio. The theatre was in there and there were no exits. You had to pay the parking. So, we went and it was so cool. We got Margaritas and walked around. We saw two movies that day. The Bourne Ultimatum and Transformers. They were both so awesome. And, when it was time to see those movies it just happened to start raining as we were walking in. And, when we went to eat dinner at Bubba gump shrimp it started raining as we were walking in also. The weather worked out perfect for us and it stopped raining in time for us to go swimming that night too. The next day we decided to go back to Universal studios and go to the theme park there. Which was an awesome decision. They had the coolest rides and it was an awesome time. We went out to dinner that night at Black Angus. The next day we went to play put put. Or as I called it golf golf. Then, we came home. It was an awesome trip! We're both so glad we did it and it something we'll always remember. I plan on doing more trips like that in the future. Maybe when the next baby's old enough. Haha!
