Lick-Or-Treat

I had to share some pictures of these little cuties all dressed up for Halloween. I don't think their costumes spooked anyone, but they sure looked cute.

Nugget was a great model in his costume. Better than his sister.

This is definently their personalities, Gina is mad and pouty and Nugget is happy go lucky!

Kim's Anual Halloween Party

Friday October 30th was Kim's anual Halloween party and once again it was a blast. The costumes get better every year and I love to see what everyone comes up with. The spooky snacks were endless and delicious. Thanks Kim for always going all out! We had a blast!

Here's everyone in their awesome costumes. Nick and Natalie as Alice and the Mad Hatter, Joe and I as The Birds and Bees, Jess as a Dallas Cowboy football player, Kim the witch, Lisa as a twirler, and Aaron and Lindsey as themselves.

Here's my favorite picture of my sweet husband dressed like a chicken. I love his smile!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!

Happy Halloween!!!

We had a pumpkin carving party at Homer and Cecilia's house on Wednesday before Halloween. There were tons of good food and Halloween treats. Adam and Meghan and Joseph's parents joined us for the party. My pumpkin I carved was a Pug and all the pumpkins turned out great.

Playing Catch Up

It has been entirely too long since my last post, so why not take the time catch up while I recover from getting my wisdom teeth out. The surgery actually went really well and only took about 45 minutes to finish. I have felt pretty good most of the day, just drowsy and sleepy. I thought I was doing so well that I think I moved around a little too much and made myself feel a little sick. Now I am sitting here on the couch, doing absolutely as little as possible and thought I would do a little blogging.

Joseph and I, and his parents took a fun trip to Vegas October 9th for fun and to celebrate Joe's birthday. I was a nice getaway and we had a great time. We went to a couple of small shows like Tony and Tina's Wedding, Price Is Right and we went and tried indoor skydiving. There was a lot of good food and shopping. We went to our favorite place in Vegas to eat called Hugo's that my Aunt introduced us to and hung out downtown at the Freemont Experience. We didn't have much luck at the casinos, but it was great spending time with loved ones.

Nuggett

We added a new member to our little family this weekend.


Meet Nuggett!

He is a male, tan Pug and he is already so well behaved at only 11 weeks old. He was born March 4, 2009. He was definently an impulse buy but we are already in love with him and Gina loves having someone more her size to play with.

He already fits in so well at our house and slept straight through the night the first night we had him. He slept right next to me in bed of course.

He got his first bath, got into my mom's pool, and went and played at the lake.

Maybe we will have little pug babies someday!

San Antonio

Memorial weekend Cecilia and I went to San Antonio to visit Mara and have a girls weekend. We had way too much fun. I visited the San Marcos outlet mall for the first time and that was a huge highlight to my trip. We went to the Coach outlet and bought the boys some new clothes from Polo. I even found a good deal on some Armani Khaki pants for Joseph to wear in our up-coming pictures next Monday. We had dinner on the River Walk one night and floated the river. What a fun time. I didn't get many pictures from the trip becuase I was memory card-less, but here are a few from Cecilia's camera!

A time for change...

There are a lot of changes going on right now at work, and home. This past weekend the salon I work at got a BIG re-model. We got all new styling chairs, shampoo bowls, dryer hoods, and stations should be coming soon. The new stuff looks great, it may just take me a while to adjust. I've been using the same things for 3 years. I must admit, I am a creature of habit and sometimes fear change, but so far so good. We have recieved good feedback from our clients and it has eased my mind a bit.

Change # 2: I finally have the long hair I have wanted for so long. Jessica put some semi-permanent extensions in my hair and I am loving them. They stay in for several months and you can wash and style your hair with them in. They have been a lot of fun so far. It will at least cure my hair boredom for now.

Change # 3: Still in progress... I have decided to try super hard to lose weight for the summer and to work out a lot more. I have really enjoyed bike riding lately and do that a lot when I don't want to be indoors or go to the gym. I have been on this program for 2 weeks and have only lost 4.4 lbs so far, but so far so good. My goal is 20-25 lbs (I think.) Wish me Luck!
