Best Advice Yet!

So we had our usual Thursday night softball game in Little Elm, which I have to say is my favorite night of the week. I love spending time with Cindy, Brandy, and Holly and just having some real girl talk. Our real girl talk got really good last night and I heard the best advice yet. It is not the first time I have ever heard this, but last night it just hit me, the light bulb came on and it really meant something. It all started over a few beers and talking about the three M's... marriage, money and men. I started venting about last weeks mood and how Alex was not helping it get any better. Pretty much after pouring my heart out about how I felt about the three M's, Brandy looks at me and simply says " Marriage is Hard, and it's not going to get any easier. You learn to take the bad and enjoy the good." I have heard that so many times, but for some reason last night it just hit home. Made me look at my relationship with Alex in a completely different way.

Less than 2 1/2 months till this becomes a family! 

On a different note...I have been wanting a new king bed set for a while now. I had purchased a Queen bed spread several years ago and have been using that. It is to small, a greenish blue color that matched nothing, and I never cared enough to make my bed because I hated the way it looked. So I was talking with Kayla our roommate and talking about how I loved how she made her bed everyday, and how I really wanted a black and white king size bed spread, and I would make my bed everyday. So Wednesday night she comes home with a brand new king size beautiful black and white bed in a bag! I was shocked.... she said it was an early Birthday-Thank You present. This is not an actual picture of my bed before but I wanted to get the point across.

AFTER

Isn't it lovely? I am so thankful I have great people in my life. Thank you Kayla. That is not the only thing that Kayla has brought in the house that I love. Let's start from the beginning, Kayla and Josh which is Alex's cousin moved in the beginning of June, and are staying in one of our spare bedrooms. Long story short they needed to get out of his mom's house and we have more than enough room for them. Well they didn't come alone they have an adorable 3 year old little boy named Jayden. I absolutely love having him around the house, you can be having the worst day ever and you come home and see his smile how can you not smile with him. I mean look...

How can you not love this adorable face? What I love is that even Alex is a sucker for this little boy. Almost everyday he takes him outside to go hit some baseballs in the backyard. He can even cheer up Alex when he comes home in a bad mood. I love to see them together makes me really believe that Alex is going to be a great dad some day. 

Till then...
