Not a big fan

Okay, okay, I dont know why but I am just not that big of a fan of Valentine background right now.. Maybe it's cause it's a month away, maybe I just dont like the Valentine things, not sure.. I tried giving it shot but nooo, noo, I just, uh how do I put it.. Not for me right now.. Maybe I am ready for spring that might be it :) So I am strange I know I know :) So if there is a cute one later, I may put it, or I may not I guess I need to be in the mood. Right now though I just want spring, spring flowers, spring weather, spring birds, you know the whole 9 yards :)

:) Got to love my husband :)

Okay, so with all the new decorating, and adding color
to the bathroom, Jake has been really sweet about it all..
He even bought me the red towels and red rugs.
I wasn't sure how he would feel about me picking the bathroom colors
or spending the money on silly flowers, and frames, and the
little things to go into the frames and all that fun stuff.
To my lovely surprise he has been helping, and even going
out of his way after work to buy me the things,
so that I can decorate the next morning while he is at work..
He has always been a real trooper to all my crazy
ideas, and has always gone the extra mile to make
me feel good about living in Vegas. Which I love Vegas, and
I love being with Jake and his family, it is adjusting,
and well, a matter of getting my own creativeness
out there and into the house.. :)

MY PROJECT house to a home



Okay, So we have been living here for uh 8 months and this house still
does not feel like home. I feel like I am visiting, maybe even visiting some old ladies house.
( maybe cause we share, maybe it's the fact this house is like 60's style too)
I really have not felt like this house had any spot for me.
You know when you walk in your room, or your house, it just says
welcome home, this is where you belong.....
Well, I have not had that feeling so I decided to decorate and try to make
this feel more like where I fit in and belong.
Make a project I guess you can say :)
I am not done yet, but I just buy a little here a little there and add..



So I am doing RED, BLACK & GOLD
I am not a big fan of gold, but the lighting in the bathroom is gold
and because we are renting I am not going
to spend the money to change that..
Above the towels under the little black frame I am
going to be putting a shelf with some zen stuff, a zen garden
a little bamboo tree, and the in sent thing will be moved over to there.
and over the shower curtain I am putting a red window scarf,
with black little hooks to hold it to the sides.
the wood towel racks will be changed to the black metal.
Like everything though it takes money so, pay check, to pay check
I buy new stuff :)
So this is what I have been up to, and why I have not been blogging
cause I have been shopping and decorating :)
OH YES, Yes that is a real fish bowl I have hanging on my wall :)
It is the neatest thing I've eve seen. Petco :) Love it.

Christmas :)

Well me and Jake spent Christmas at home just the two of us.
It was a little different but it was wonderful, to have time with just him.
Jake ended up waking up at 1:30 am (Christmas morning) and
he couldn't go back to sleep, so he woke m up at 2am to open gifts. :)
I have to laugh a little inside and think he is crazy, but that is why I love him so much
So we opened our gifts and Jake ended up playing with his guitar hero until about 6am
I didn't get any pictures cause as you can imagine I was soo tired.
Jake spoiled me rotten though, and I think I did pretty good for his gifts,
even though he already beat his game lol :)
