This Weather!

We are now the proud owners of sod, 10 trees and 5 rose bushes. Ya, I got some rose bushes! Pink and white ones. :) They were a complete surprise from my hubby. The nursery delivered the trees and bushes yesterday. My hubby called to make sure I was home. And I was expecting sod and trees. Instead, they delivered rose bushes and trees. No sod. It will be delivered sometime next week. Something about the sod they had on hand was dying. So I'm glad they waited to deliver it.


Oh, and we were supposed to do a lot of planting today. That isn't happening. The weather is so bad today! So our rose bushes and trees are now in the garage. I hope they live. And we're hoping to plant everything next weekend. If the weather decides to agree with us. The sod should be delivered by then. At least we're hoping! ~Chels

Grassware Jewelry

So cute! That's what I said when I saw these little treasures. You see, we're having some really bad weather. For the last few days, it's been incredibly windy. In fact, my hubby and I seen a roof fly off of a house yesterday. It's been bad. So I've been inside. Trying to cook. And playing on the computer a lot.





Along with finding new blogs, I've found more little treasures. Like Grassware. You can customize any of the necklaces. Which range between $23 and $42. They're too cute! And you can add extra charms, $3-12 a piece. I would really like one of these necklaces. Because you can completely customize them! Oh my. I could just see one with mine and my hubby's names...and our wedding day. ~Chels

Love Lasso Ring

We've been having bad weather. I don't think it's ever going to warm up here. So we're pretty much stuck inside. Do you think that winter is ever going to end? I'm starting to wondering. While I was just sitting in the house today, I was searching for some jewelry. And I came across this ring. I think my hubby is just praying for warm weather, so I stop doing searches online. :)



But don't you just love this ring? I do! Probably because it looks like a rope. And it says love. It's a Zoe and Morgan Ring. They also have it in silver. But I like the look of the gold one. :) The price isn't too bad either. £85, or about $130. Now if I could just win the lottery. Or maybe my hubby will buy me this as an early anniversary present. ~Chels

Our Yard



Today hubby and I spent almost the entire day at the local nursery. We're starting to get our hands dirty...in our yard. So we went with our lists to see what they had. Of course, I wanted all the pretty flowers. Rose bushes, seasonal flowers, and even strawberry plants. My hubby wanted all these "structured" bushes and trees. Go figure huh?

But we've made out a plan. We're going to slowly work at our yard. That means all the "bones" need to come together first. Ugh! But we'll get it done. We priced a lot of stuff today. And talked to a really nice man. He gave us all kinds of tips and tricks! What a nice man he was.

Well, hubs and I, we ordered sod today. We figured that's what is going to be the most expensive part of the yard. And the part that is going to need the most labor. I guess my roses are just going to have to wait until later. But I'm glad we have a plan. I don't feel so lost anymore. ~Chels

Tired

I'm so tired. This week has just been so crazy! Between Valentine's Day, Presidents' Day and Mardi Gras, I'm barely standing. I really need some sleep tonight. And we don't even party. You know, like getting drunk. No, we just like to do a lot of things...in very little time.


I just don't understand why we cram so much into 1 week. It's insanity! Hopefully I get to catch up on some sleep. And hopefully, we don't have to do too much this weekend. Because I'm not sure I can handle it. Ya, I need some time to recover from all these holidays. Because we crammed so much into the last week! ~Chels

Happy Valentine's Day!



My hubby, he's pretty amazing! He has the whole day planned out for us. :) I just love Valentine's Day! It's just an excuse for me to tell my hubby how much I love him! I was never a fan of Valentine's Day. Until I met him. And he always makes Valentine's Day so special. I'm a very lucky lady!

I just wanted to wish ya'll a Happy Valentine's Day. I hope your day is filled with lots of love! Now it's time for me to enjoy my breakfast in bed. ~Chels

NuWave Oven



Hubby and I are still in bed. We're being a little lazy this morning. And we're watching a ton of infomercials. Well, sorta watching them and falling asleep. We're really being lazy! But the infomercial for the NuWave got me interested! I know, it's all gimmicky. But if this could help me and my cooking...it might just be worth the $150. It might be worth it. If only I could cook like that. But I'd probably still make a disaster out of my meals. I guess I should really think before I go out and buy me a NuWave. What do you think of them? Would you buy one? ~Chels

Temporary Home



This song makes me cry everytime I hear it. Carrie Underwood's Temporary Home is such a beautiful song. But I cry. Even when I'm driving. People must think I'm nuts! But I really do enjoy this song. It's beautiful! But then again, I've like all of Carrie's music. She's a really good country artist. And she's sticking to her roots. I'm glad! ~Chels

General Hospital



General Hospital is my favorite show to watch! I've been watching since I was in high school. And I've always loved it! Darn, this show is getting good! This is the best the writing has ever been! Oh, I love GH!

Lately, I haven't been watching it a lot. Because I've been busy with everything in life. But I sat down and caught up over the weekend! Thank you YouTube! I watch Scrubsjasonmaxie's videos. She's really good about posting. Heck, one day I was going to go watch an episode from the day before. GH was about an hour away from showing here, and she was already uploading that day's show!

Is there any show that you're really passionate about? GH is my show. I can miss Greys or DWTS, but I just can't miss GH! I'm glad that I found Scrubsjasonmaxie. But I don't always get to watch the show when it comes out. It's nice to catch up on the weekends. :) ~Chels

If We Had Kids...



I was searching for some stuff for our dogs. Toys and beds. Somehow I found myself here. Looking at this Cowboy Basket of Toys. It's just too cute! There's puppets, soft animals, and just a bunch of toys. It's really cute set. It's $45. But that's a lot of stuff. So I think the price is right. :)

Now it only we had some Honky Tonk Kiddos. I'd buy this basket for my kids. I can't wait to start having kiddos. But, this couple isn't quite ready to expand the Honky Tonk Family just yet. Sorry mom. ~Chels

Feeling Better



We're finally feeling better. Today hubs went back to work. When I say we've never been sick like that before, I'm not lying! It was so bad! I really wanted to just die. My entire body hurt. Badly! But now we're better.

I really think the chicken soup that our friends brought over, it did the job! And it was really good. So much so, I called them to see where they got it. And I picked some up for dinner tonight. Ya, we're having soup, grilled cheese, and 7UP. I don't want to push my luck too much. Besides, that soup was really good!

In the end, I'm glad we have great friends. They help out whenever we need the help. I'm so grateful. And I'm so happy that the hubs and I are doing a lot better. Because that was a rough week! ~Chels
