3 Inches of Snow in Charleston!! SNOW DAY

What a great weekend for a SNOW DAY!!  We woke up to about 3 inches of snow in Charleston, SC. It had been 10 years since their last snow!!  And we woke up to still NO POWER :( .  After having to make ourselves get up on this cold morning, we ventured outside. It was so PRETTY.  White all over the ground, and so peaceful and calm.  Princess was a little bit more excited about the snow today. Afterall, the cold rain had stopped and it was more of a powder. She had fun running in the field across the street and took a nose dive once or twice!! lol.  She was covered in Snow by the time we got inside!!
Patrick's snowman lasted through the night, and into the afternoon!
The snow quickly melted by 10:30am or so, with only shaded areas holding white still. We still had no power, so all 3 of us snuggled in the bed and watched a movie by the laptop!!
We decided around 11:45 to head to lunch at Chick fil A ! ... Praying when we returned we would find POWER. and WE DID!! Finally around 1pm we had power restored!!
It was a wonderful Snow DAY!!

A Night of Snowing!!!

So around 9:30pm we decided to go outside and play!  The power was going on and off, so we put on our coats and headed outside!! This time however, the little angel get to stay inside in her warm bed!! She would not have the cold... hehe.
It was coming down really hard at that time, and had started sticking really good!!  Patrick started building a snowman!! He was too funny. Our neighbors were out, and throwing snowballs and several neighbor kids were just amazed at the snow! Patrick's snowman was a HIT by many...
We enjoyed the snow greatly! It was our 1st Snow together!!
After coming back inside however, we lost power not long after around 10:30pm. We did light some candles, and headed to bed. Wanting power by morning!!

SNOW IN CHARLESTON

It is Snowing!!!  I can't believe we are getting snow on the Coast!!!  The Weather Channel kept saying it all day, but ya know we had to SEE it to BELIEVE it!! Lol.  Patrick's school got an early dismissal at 2pm, due to being across the bridge on the island.  So we spent the early afternoon together, and I made Chili for dinner!! Patrick and I noticed it was Sleeting around 7:30pm. It started getting bigger white flakes and started sticking just before 8pm!!! YAY FUN!
So of course I had to take some pictures tonight when I took Princess out! However, she was not so happy about this cold wet stuff that she had to walk in. She was too funny about it. Needless to say, since coming back inside she has wrapped herself in all the blankets on the couch!! Bless her heart!!  Little does she understand, she will be back out there first thing in the morning.. hehe.
I am loving the calm, silence that the snow brings! It is a great way to start Valentine's weekend!!

Princess Check-up

Little Princess had her yearly check-up yesterday. 2-8-09.  She is now 10 pounds 5 oz. She is getting to be such a big girl!! This was our first time at our new Vet here in Charleston. They were so sweet to her! Princess had 3 shots and her yearly exam. She is a very healthy year old little girl!! 
However, mommy didn't do so good, with the shots.. She broke my heart each time they gave her one, her little eyes would get full of water, and she would turn her head to me, like Mommy, why??. It was so terrible for me.
I have no idea how I will be when I have kids one day!! lol.
But she got lots of love and attention and then came home and rested all day!!

Here is our Big Little Baby, in her new sweater!!

Date Night

Patrick surprised me with an amazing Date Night this past Friday night!! 02-05-2009.  He called me after work, and said babe, I know you are sick and not feeling well, but get dressed! I want to take my HOT Wife out on a HOT DATE tonight!! 
It was so fun, and much needed time together! 
We went to Red Lobster to eat dinner, and then went shopping!
One of our fun stops was to PetSmart to get little Princess a beautiful sweater! She is so cold in the mornings when she goes out potty, so now she has a nice sweater to stay warm!
We always found our way to Target, where we always seem too.. lol. And got yet another game to add to our collection!!  This time we bought Battle of the Sexes! And Are you Smarter then a 5th Grader for his xbox.  So basically we spent the weekend enjoying our new games, and relaxing!!

I love that MAN!!!

Home Makeover Night with Marianne

Tuesday night February 2, 2009, we had so much fun!!! I went over to Meg's house and Marianne (our Sunday School Teacher), did her magic with a home makeover!! About 12 girls got together and enjoyed fellowship, laughs and redecorating.
I have really enjoyed getting to know and develop friendships through our new Sunday School Class.
The ladies are so nice, and it is great knowing people that are going through the new adjustments of marriage along side with you.

It was a great Girls Night!!

Our New Red Microwave

I am so excited that we finally got a New Microwave!!  I have been living without one, since we moved into our apartment!!  But I love that we found a red one!!! :0

Princess

She is getting so big!!!  We love having her here, and most importantly she loves it here!!! She has found a new spot on the porch.  She will sit out there for hours, in the sun spot just looking out or sleeping.. She is so funny!!! We stay entertained by her for sure!! The Following Picture is when I caught her, after I couldn't find her anywhere in the apartment!!  Notice she stays super close to the door and wall, and she runs inside every few minutes to make sure I haven't left her! :) I did mention she is funny...right :)

Apartment Complete

So thankfully, we are finished with the apartment... I am still trying to decide if I want to paint 1 or 2 walls as accent walls?? Anyone has any suggestions, I would love to hear... ??? I am thinking a Red one, in the Dining Room or Wall where TV sits in the Living Room.. I think it will add color and space in the apartment.??!!
Here are some pictures of our Room, Bathroom DONE :) YAY!! we are still waiting on Wedding Pictures to put in Frames, but I hope to have them soon!!
