" Life is about laughing & living through good & bad times!"

Last weekend was very productive. I can officially say I have marked off at least 3 things off my Wedding to do list. We went to Kay's and Alex picked out his ring, and I got my wedding band, it was funny I kept wanting him to look at the more expensive ones' and he was just fine with the plain Jane ones's. That's Alex never really likes to be flashy except for when it comes to Softball bats! I also ordered our Save the Dates I only paid $15.00 for them I got a free 100 and just had to pay shipping and handling. From vistaPrint.com I am hoping they run a special on invitations so I can go through them as well.

So now with all the big stuff out of the way right now it gives me some time to just sit back and relax and enjoy the silence from all running thoughts in my head. Misty started her 2nd round of traning classes she is now in the intermediate classes and Monday was her 1st one. I have a feeling that this class is going to be more work for us than it will be her. I am excited to see what will come from it though. She has already learned "Stay" and she does it very well even with distractions. Our baby is growing up she is now officially 40lbs see...

Speaking of good deals I found this special at Canvaspeople.com they were giving away a free 8 x 10 canvas picture all you have to pay for was shipping that came to $ 14.56. I love it I think I am going to get a plate stand and put it somewhere in the house. I might just go do a couple more and have them in our bathroom at the new house.

Life is good right now, not to hectic just enough where it is easy to keep it together. Alex has a bachelor party this weekend. He will be leaving Friday and coming home Easter Sunday. They are getting a cabin in the wood by some lake and spending a much needed guys weekend away. I am going to use the time for packing, and throwing stuff away. There is our mid-April update stay tuned for more!

"A smile is a curve that sets everything straight."

Well the suspense feeling is gone...we are officially not joining the Army, and now we can move on from all that. I have to admit It would have been an interesting run, but I am so much more happier knowing I get to have Alex in my arms every night.

With all that out of the way I am now looking forward to our 4 year anniversary coming up this month on the 26th. I am not sure what I want to do yet, was thinking of going to our 1st date restaurant it's called Luna De Noche. I will never forget before we walked in the restaurant he made me leave my cell phone in the car, so we could have a nice, and quiet dinner. Then half way through dinner it started to storm like the sky was falling, and everyone and my mom was trying to reach me since I was only visiting from San Antonio. It was a good first date, had the butterflies, and the awkward silences...who would have known 4 years later, we would be engaged and getting married!

Misty Update:

Well Misty starts her 2nd round of training classes starting on Monday the 18th. Her teacher actually asked us to make sure she gets the next round because she is just to smart and needs the training to be the very best dog. It's so funny we get so proud when she does so well in her classes, like she is our daughter. She is getting so big to last time we weighed her she was at 37lbs. I can't believe it 7 months ago she was only 9lbs and barley could wear her collar we got her.

Moving Update:

So "WE GOT APPROVED!!" we are moving into the town home in Plano. We are hoping to have everything packed by May 15th, I want to start moving stuff over on the 23rd and get totally moved in by the end of that week. I am excited I want to go in and paint and get everything nice and clean. So excited this is will be our "1st official home" I think Misty, and Grace will be excited to...more room to run for Misty and much more places to hide for Grace. See our Google Map's picture of our new home!!

Wedding Update:

It will be here before we all know it!! We got the official "YES" to get married on the ball field, and we have not yet booked our Venue but it is looking promising. I am going to get my mom to call them today and save the date for October 1st 2011. Then we will have a date!!! It's so exciting getting to actually do the things I have been excited to do. Next I want to go try on dresses. That is going to be fun!!!! It's going to be so hard trying to keep it a secret from Alex, because I never keep anything from him, BUT it will be well worth it!

"Be All You Can Be"

Today is the DAY! We will find out if Alex is eligible for the Army. It's kind of weird I am excited knowing that he has a very good chance of getting accepted this time. I was so anti-Army a few weeks ago, but now I think I have come to terms and I am trying to see the good in the change. I will be able to be a full time student and have the opportunity to travel, and see things we have never seen. With all that said I am still very nervous. Looking forward to knowing where our life's will be going in the next few years!
