Watch out the world may end! Mike is making a post

We have not posted in a while to the surprise of everyone. So I am going to give a small run down of our lives. I know it is almost summer time but the last time we posted it was still winter. We were able to go skiing a second time this year with some of Megs friends from work. We also got to go hiking for a little bit and took some cool pics.


It was very pretty as you can see. I was also able to get into the Guinness book of world records for licking the worlds largest icicle on earth.
In the month of March I was able to work on the Apples kitchen remodel which went very well. It was a little scary knowing it was my first project all by myself. In the end everyone was happy and we made some money.


Our latest adventure was the gardening weekend. We decided to spruce up the outside of our house seeing that we had ivy growing all over our tree and our fence. So we tore it out and planted flowers.


Hopefully the remodel will be coming to a close in the next couple of weeks so that we can post some pictures of the finished product. Then we will have to have a huge family party to have everyone over.

What we've been up to

I realize it's been a while since we (I) have blogged. Sometimes when I write on here, I feel as if I'm writing in my journal or something and am pretty transparent, so I haven't had the guts to write much lately....we've had quite a lot going on. So instead of writing too much...I will try to explain with pictures.

At the end of November, Mike and I and the "Bailey" side of the family traveled to Ohio for my Grandpa Watson's funeral. It was a very sad time but also nice to be with family. We got to see four generations together: Grandma Watson, my mom, my sister Stacy, and her daughter Wendy. Pretty neat.


I fell even more in love with my nephew Caleb....he actually played with me!



I got to watch Mike be a sweet Uncle


When we got back from OH, Mike took on full time work at the house finishing the remodel. We have come so far from what our house started out as:

I'm so proud of my husband and all his hard work!

In December, we decided to start our first Christmas as a married couple with the tradition of going and cutting down a tree!










At the end of December we got to travel to South Carolina to spend Christmas. We got to stop in Stafford, VA on the way down to visit with my girlfriends from high school.

Oh yea...I dyed my hair brown.













New Year's Eve we got to celebrate with Mike's parents at Outback Steakhouse. mmmm it was very good.

After dinner, Mike and I went bowling. I would also just like to add that I BEAT MIKE in the second game. I got THREE STRIKES IN A ROW. Wow, even I am speechless.

This past weekend, Mike and I got to go skiing with a group of friends. It was tons of fun.





And that brings us to now. Mike will be starting a kitchen remodel for his friend's parents this week so we are very thankful for that. He also has a couple leads on full time jobs other than our house remodel. Please keep us in your prayers....and that I wouldn't get too burnt our at my job. Hopefully we will be on here a bit more often!
