Weekend Countdown.

I like most people LOVE the weekend,
but I especially am coming to love Sunday!

Not only do Benji and I get to go to church together every Sunday,
but over the past few weeks it has become our day.

The day where we don't have to worry about being anywhere at a certain time.
The day where after church we can lounge all day.
The day where after church being in pajamas is ok.
The day where we don't have to worry about homework or a million things to do.
The day where it can be just us, together.
It is becoming OUR day, and I love it.

The weekend countdown resets every Monday morning.

(one of the first Sundays as a Mr. & Mrs. and a little sunburnt)

Picture Overload.

I have finally finished unpacking/decorating/working on our place.
House tour begins.

Living Room.







Stairwell.


Kitchen.

I am still on the hunt for a cute round tablecloth.
I was going to try to make one then this happened.
Let me know if you see one, please.





Benji's bathroom.
Yes, we have separate bathrooms.
I have a lot of bathroom stuff with very little space.
We also have separate closets.


Guest Bedroom.


This bookshelf is a work progress.
In February, as Benji was packing our car we had to choose wedding presents or my collection of books I have in Texas.
Benji choose our wedding presents.
So, this bookshelf is anxiously awaiting books.
Hopefully, we be here later this month.



Our Bedroom.





My bathroom.


Big news for Utah. Check this. I am pretty excited.

25.

So, I have been seeing this around on
some of the different blogs I read
and I wanted to give it a try.

25 facts/goals/interests/worries/whatever

1. If I could be a professional student, I would be. I love learning and going to school.
Something about it drives me.
2. I love cinnamon. Cinnamon anything. Hence, why I spilled cinnamon sugar on our leftover wedding cake. Just kidding that was an accident. Serious though...cinnamon speeds up your metabolism.
3. I have become a huge tv/movie watcher. Thank goodness for netflix.
Benji and I are currently into Prison Break.
4. This song has been on repeat for the last week.
5. I am planner. If I could plan the next 50 years I could. Too bad I can't. I get very frustrated/stressed if there is no plan.
6. I have become a clean FREAK, ever since we got married. It is starting to drive Benji nuts.
7. I wish I was crafty. I am envious of crafty people, like my sister.
8. I am cooking more. Like actual meals. I am pretty proud of myself.
9. I don't like surprises. Goes back to having a plan. I am getting better though. Benji loves to surprise me, so its a work in progress.
10. Most good things happen when you don't go looking for them.
11. I love getting things in the mail.
12. I want new hobbies.
13. I love the Wall Street Journal. Nerdy, I know.
14. I hate getting lost. Whenever I go somewhere and I think I am the slightest going wrong I have to call someone. Mostly, its my Dad, but for here in Idaho Falls its Benji.
15. I love peanut butter and Oreos together.
16. I don't do well with change.
17. I am trying to be more outgoing.
18. I am most definitely a morning person.
19. Unless I have a firm opinion or really want something, I normally don't care about stuff.
20. I love frozen yogurt. Whenever I go to Rexburg now, I go to Twizlberry. Its the best.
21. I am not an animal person at all.
22. I always tell Benji we are going to take pictures whenever we do something, but very rarely do any pictures get taken. Like Easter dinner, none got taken.
23. It takes a lot for me to try new things.
24. Sometimes I have a hard time letting things go....I am trying to be better at this.
25. Benji makes me laugh everyday on a continual basis.

A lot harder to come up with 25 random things than I thought.

Benji and I are slowly ordering wedding pictures to have throughout our house.
I came across this one the other day.

It shows our relationship pretty well. I think. I talk his ear off day and night and he listens.

I wish and I am thankful!

Credit for today's blog post goes to Stephanie

I wish I could go could back to school and take more fun classes.
Like decorating, floral arrangement, and sewing.
I am thankful for my degree and the opportunity I was given to attend school and the internet and books so I could learn more about those things.

I wish my husband wasn't so crazy busy all the time, even more now that school has started again.
I am thankful for him and all of his hard work and everything he does for us.

I wish I lived closer to my family so the days when Benji was gone all day I could hang out with them.
I am thankful for skype and how I got to see them for a little bit on Saturday and for the person who invented texting and cellphones so I can talk to them whenever.

I wish Idaho Falls was a bigger city. Sometimes it doesn't cut it when I want to get something.
I am thankful for the family environment Idaho Falls does have.

I wish I could be a professional shopper. Like everyday, all day. Just get whatever I wanted when I wanted it.
I am thankful for those times when I can treat myself to get those things
I want to get and how much more excited I am.

Dressing Room.

I have always wanted to someday custom design
our house.

I have dreamed of having a huge walk-in closet
but then I came across this the other day.
Now, I have decided I want a whole room.

As Benji dreams of his tv/gaming room,
I dream of my dressing room.

I have already decided on the color scheme
I want to use.

My love for Ikea and Target has just doubled
after seeing everything she got there.
