UGH....

I just can't seem to stress it enough. I HATE DOING DISHES!!! For about 2 years Tim did ALL the dishes and I did all the cooking. It was a great deal because I enjoy cooking. Well since we moved into the house Tim put his foot down and said he was tired of being in charge of the dishes. So, we started alternating EXCEPT I am still doing all the cooking and now I have to do half the dishes! I hate this deal. (to be fair Tim does plenty of other stuff to even things out). Tim finally nailed it on the head the other day - I hate to get my hands wet. It's not that I don't get my hands wet, but I just don't like the feeling of it when they are wet. And if anyone was to touch my hands within 1 hour of my hands being wet YOU WILL DIE! But I'm so practical I can't stand spending the money on a dishwasher! I'd rather post this blog and bitch about washing dishes the rest of my life then spend the money on a dishwasher! (I am 99% sure I will eat these words at a later date haha)

YAY SPRING IS COMING!! The boys played outside for a little while in the middle of their jam yesterday. Although Ben was wearing only a T-shirt it wasn't THAT warm.

Healthy Veg Out Day

Karen and I decided to spend the day doing NOTHING! Yes, there was a plan to actually do nothing all day. We didn't want to just veg out on a bunch of crappy bad food so we bought some fruit and veggies and pigged out on that (as you'll see by the photos). We watched Bridezilla and Amazing Wedding Cakes in our comfy PJ clothes. :) Along with watching TV we did lots of laughing and internet browsing. Karen brought her laptop and just connected through my wireless network. It was a good day, good day!

What's New?

This past weekend Karen and I ordered her bridesmaid dress it'll be in sometime in June. She looks so hot in the dress! She might just out hot me haha - ya right! I decided to go with a dark red color for her dress. It's about knee length and strapless. I'm kind of sticking with Fuchsia, Orange, and Red for the wedding. I think it'll all look really amazing once the room is put together at least it looks amazing in my imagination. I have a few days off next week and I'll spend it working on the wedding. I'm going to go to my hair salon to look over some possible hair styles, I'm going to the Muddy Rudder to set up a table the way I think I want it to look along with deciding on how to decorate the rest of the room, I'll also be renting chairs for the ceremony and doing random wedding shopping. LOVE IT! The planning seems to be going really well!! Tim hasn't had a lot to do with the wedding, but he did get excited looking online for the kind of tux he wants. He'll probably stick with just a black and white tux, while Chris will have a red vest and tie to match Karen's dress.

So, what's new? nothing.

That's NOT my dog!

I dropped Obie off at the groomers this morning. His hair was ridiculously long and was starting to mat up kinda bad. I under estimated how often a Bichon's hair needs to be brushed. Tim picked him up on his way home from work today so when I got home I had this rat running up to me. I was speechless!! Not exactly the haircut I was looking for! He looks so awkward - long legs, long skinny body and big rat eyes! His hair grows pretty quickly so hopefully in a couple of weeks he'll be less freakish! And the positive side is I don't have to brush him for awhile!

What Wedding Show is your FAVORITE?

OMG! I'm obsessed with tv shows about weddings. Whose Wedding is it Anyway?, Bridezilla, Platinum Weddings, Rich Bride Poor Bride! LOVE IT! It was so totally worth getting cable just for these shows! I watch at least one of them every day! Although I haven't pulled any ideas from them it's really so much fun to watch and it keeps me super motivated. Tim's not a huge fan. One night we flipped back and forth between Ultimate Fighting and Rich Bride Poor Bride haha. Isn't that what love is though... compromise? :)

We've asked Paul to play acoustic guitar at our ceremony and thankfully he said yes. I'm taking a few days off the end of this month I'll spend the time coming up with decorating ideas. I'm having a super hard time deciding on what to do for centerpieces. I'll stop by the Muddy Rudder and check out the room again to help brainstorm. All in all everything is going well. We're still struggling on where to go for our honeymoon. Once I think we've settled on a place he says "well, I don't know" ugh! Friggin' Boys!
