Craigslist for the win!

We bought our first piece of furniture for our house!



I was bored this afternoon and went looking on craigslist. I found a small round black kitchen table and 4 chairs for $100! Our kitchen is a little weird in the new house. The area where a table to be able to eat is right next to the island in the middle of the kitchen and on the other side is the living room area. So we have been looking for a small black round table to put there in that awkaward space. It's really hard to explain.... When the house is completed we are planning to decorate the kitchen in red, black, and white with the fat chef theme.



The table was all the way in Aledo in the country...it was quite an adventure to find...Thanks Paul for going with us to find it and help load it. All in all it was worth it...just needs some TLC...Kile plans to paint it and get it looking awesome.



It's a really great find for us to start off with. I'm really excited to see it in the space. Even if we don't end up getting the house for whatever reason, the table is still small enough where we could have it in an apartment. YAY YAY YAY!

Finally.....!

Today I was offered a full time position at my branch! I'm so excited....full time coming from part time means 8 more hours of work, medical/dental insurance, a day off during the week, sick and vacation time...After two years working at EECU, and getting passed up on the job once, I got offered a full time teller position! I start my new schedule April 6th when the current full timer starts at his new job downtown.

YAY! I'm so excited :0)

we now have a wedding page!

Our House

Without fail we have been driving by our plot of dirt every day and NOTHING! We told the builder when we signed papers that we would like to delay construction a month to put our closing date towards the ideal time for us. Well it's been over a month since we completed and turned in all the papers. Kile went by the office yesterday to ask what was going on. Fox and Jacobs told kile that the house only takes 100 days to build! When we originally asked they told us 6 months. Well they are not going to start building until May, so that puts us closing August, possibly September. September would be awesome, but August is good too. I'm sad....nothing to see on our lot until May!

8 months from today....

Kile and I will be married....

Wow!

More updates...

1. My wedding shoes arrived yesterday from California. I love them....they are incredible. http://www.angelanuran.com/ (this is designer's website...excuse one of the pictures on there.) http://www.adancetoremember.com/products.php
   

That's the two websites you can see them. Mine are ivory with heart rhinestone buckles on the ankles.

2. Nothing has been done on our house yet. They move dirt on and off the lot, but nothing else. If they have not started by March, we are going call and see if the six month build time included a wait time plus the month we asked them to wait. We want to close in September if possible, but they told us it would be August. We will just have to see.

3. I"m really tired of our guest list yo-yo-ing. We started with 200, got down to 150, and now we are at 177. UGH!

....and that's it?

updates

I haven't updating in a while about what we have been doing, so here's the latest!

1-We have picked and booked our honeymoon. We are going to Las Vegas for 4 days, 3 nights; staying at the golden nugget. I'm so excited!!!! We got a super awesome room, and I'm so looking forward to everything being over so we can relax!

2-We have picked our invitations, I'm just waiting to be able to order them. They are absolutely amazing and everything we wanted. I can't wait to send them out, but I'll have to hold off until august : ( I can't make up my mind on wording...I want something different, not by who is paying.

3-We have filled out all our loan documents and sent them off. We're preapproved, and just waiting for the building to start. I'll post some pictures as soon as things start.

4-We have made arrangements for the rehearsal dinner.

5-I have added a color to our wedding....PINK! Just little touches here and there but mostly in our flowers. I love pink and decided to add just a touch in.

6-I have a makeup trial Sunday to try out a makeup artist for my bridal portrait session and also for the wedding day.

7-We have picked out tuxs for the groom, groomsmen, usher, dads, and ring bearer...They are all going to look so handsome!

8-I had a job interview last week for the city of burleson working as a clerk in the municipal court. they want the job filled by the middle of february, so i'm just waiting to hear. I just applied earlier today to work for city of burleson, at the library also. We will see what pans out...I hope one works, either one of them would be awesome... I would really want the library one before the courthouse but either one is fine with me!

and I think that's it for now.
