Here I am!!

So sorry about the delay in blogging! Phil has been moving in and I've been getting rid of a lot of things and cleaning the house.

We had a garage sale this weekend and did great! We cleared out soo much stuff and whatever didn't sell we took to the Boley drop off center. The money we made is going into the Wedding fund. :-(
I was hoping I could use some of it to buy some new clothes, shoes and some things for the house.

We had our wine tasting a few weeks back and had a blast! I'll post pictures soon.

Gotta get back to cleaning and preparing dinner.

Puppy Days!

No Peanut and I didn't add a puppy to our family.

We are dog sitting Honeybun while Robin and her family are enjoying some vacation time on Orlando.

My how I have forgotten about the energy that puppies have. She never stops! I'm surprised she doesn't pass out from the amount of playing and energy she expends. Poor Peanut too! She has been a real trooper with sharing everything with Honeybun. She plays with her and when she's tired she will just sit there while Honeybun whines for her to play.

Then there's meal time...AGH!!! Peanut wants to eat Honeybun's food and vice versa. But look out-if Peanut tries to eat Honeybun's food she snaps at Peanut. I finally figured out that I have to hold onto Honeybun while Peanut devours her food. She knows that whatever she leaves Honeybun will finish it. Normally Peanut will leave her dry food for later in the day-not anymore-she has been just chowing down.

I boarded them for New Year's Eve so that I wouldn't have to worry about getting back to them early. They were thrilled to see me and each other as they were seperated while boarding since they aren't from the same family.

Before I picked them up, I stopped by the pet store to get some bones. That was a nice little moment of silence as they chewed away. I should have napped, but no I caught up on everyone's new years. From the scrapping divas at Linda's to my mom and grandma's annual New Year's Day shopping spree. I never seem to make it as I am a little tired (hungover) from NYE. Oh well, maybe next year!

Speaking of Next Year...I will be married this time next year. At midnight I was emotional cuz it's really gonna happen...we are getting closer to the big date. Don't get me wrong, I am very excited and looking forward to getting married, just nervous about taking that huge step in my life!

I asked another friend to be in my wedding. Diane-she had a big role in Phil in I meeting and I was with her when she met her husband, Bill, which is Phil's best friend. So it only seems fitting that they are in our wedding.

Tomorrow is my step dad's birthday so we are headed up there to sit by their fire pit, eat and celebrate his day. But in the morning we have to go to a funeral-Phil's great uncle passed away on the 26th. He was 97 so it was just his time.

On Thursday the YaYa's are getting together for some Wine. The YaYa's are a great group of ladies that get together at Kip's for pool parties and have great times! We have had marriages, babies, divorces, breakups, cancer, and many other times to laugh, cry or celebrate. This time, we are going to a Wine tasting in Safety Harbor for free-I won it at a bridal show. Afterwards we are taking a Limo home-also won from a bridal show. We are bringing food to share and may just make it a little more than a wine tasting as we will have the limo for 3 hours. We are really looking forward to seeing each other and spending time together. Some of the YaYa's have moved away and others can't make it, but there will be 5 of us there ready to drink some wine!

So I think I've caught you up and you should be good for a few days! LOL!
