Hallow-Thanks-Mas

It's the Trifecta of Holidays.

It's Chuckles (Liz) and Pebbles (me) on Halloween....

Bubbles (Chad) and -----les (Joe) on Halloween...

Yes I totally made this for Thanksgiving and it was yummy and look how amazing it looks!

The Thanksgiving table....how awesome is it to have Thanksgiving dinner outside?

Meet the Pilgrims and grimes....

Chad with an elevator shaft on his head and Jacob...

Oh it was absolutely wonderful!

I believe the tree was up on like day 5 of our move. I always like to get it up early because you get to cherish it longer.

Stockings hung on the bookcase with care by bobble-head snowmen, with hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there!

I wanna wish you a Merry Christmas...

Probably my ultimate favorite Christmas item. We bought this our first Christmas when we went to the Christmas Village with Vance and Sherry. They bought one too but different colored hat and scarf.

Happy Halloween,

Happy Thanksgiving

and Happy Christmas!

Oh yeah and Happy SEC Championship baby! Woo doggie!

Life Across the Street

First, I have to say that I did finally find my camera cord and the darn thing had 211 pictures to upload. I have SOOOOOO much to show you but in little bitty nibbles.

Here is the madness before the calm...we're still waiting on the calm part.


Mr. Fitness pretty much organized the kitchen himself and I have to say he did a mighty fine job, but I still know where the butter is without having to ask. Ah. Men.


Ain't that the truth, Pepito:

Yah, all cleaned up and decorated!

The artwork was originally above our bed but now it has a new home:

Little niche beside the tv/media console:

Awww, even the monchichis are happy in their new home:

View from kitchen/hallway:

It doesn't look like this now but there was a period where it was all nice and neat:

The bar side:

The living room is definitely a work in progress. We tried to hang curtains on Sunday but the darn wall is concrete! Maybe next weekend.

No pictures of the upstairs yet though those rooms are coming along. Maybe I can tackle them this weekend.

I couldn't remember why I was excited about having a bathtub (from my last post) but now I remember. I now can shave my legs without using my muscle to hold my leg up in the air. Do you even know who dangerous that is with a razor blade AND I've been missing spots for a whole year!

Home Sweet Townhouse

Okay so I don't have pictures yet.

BUT, here are some things I love about our townhouse (in no particular order):

1. The upstairs. I love how's it laid out, how it's separate from the rest of the house. I've never had stairs before and I hate to say this but my knees are having to get used to the stairs. No, I am not getting old thankyouverymuch.
2. Huge screened patio!
3.Bigger closet.
4. Yellow flowers in the back.
5. We can park so close to our front door.
6. Bigger fridge and washer/dryer!
7. Alcove in guest room.
8. We have a tub!

Now, there are a few things that I don't like but, fortunately, somewhat correctable.

1. Mr. Roach in our bathroom.
2. Ant family in the kitchen.
3. We have to actually lock our sliding glass doors now. In the condo, the only person we would have to worry about was Spiderman. Now just any Joe Blow could come in.
4. Fewer cabinets and counterspace in the kitchen.
5. Ceiling fans in the living room and dining room. Please note the living room and the dining room ARE THE SAME ROOM. So, why on Earth do you need two ceiling fans? I already asked her before we signed the lease about taking the one down in the dining room and she said yes. I definitely see us doing that in the future.
6.Black specs in water. Hello, Brita pitcher!

I'm sure there are other things that I love or don't and I'm quite sure Mr. Fitness has his own list (I know he hates the ceiling fans too 'cuz he keeps hitting his head on one!).

Overall, I like it. Pictures will be forthcoming (like tomorrow).

Oh yeah, almost forgot.

ROLL FREAKIN TIDE! Boo yaw!

Vampire is the new black...

Okay so one more post! I was cking out my fave blogs...

YOU HAVE TO READ THIS POST BY JENN!

Grow a Pair

So, this weekend is packing time! We are probably half way finished since I've been packing a little at a time. When I woke up this morning I almost cried since seeing the ocean when I first wake up will be a memory all too soon, but it was a year on the ocean! Tough up woman! Maybe I need to watch G.I. Jane to grow some balls and not cry at the slightest thing.

I may not blog much until next week with new house photos so here's to a wonderful Gobble Gobble Day. I drew you *yes you!* a picture!

Winston Churchill revised

I just bought this artwork for our new place. Well, technically, that was the "reason" to buy it. You know "for the new place."

Rock on Sir Winston Churchill.

Just a singin' and a dancin'

My friend Chrissy Lou sent me this video. She has a slight obsession with Michael Buble.

What I want to know is why this can't happen to me in the grocery store?
