Our honeymoon was perfect!

Brian and I had a wonderful wedding!  It was everything we could have asked for and more.

Now I just wish I could go back and live it all over again!

We left the Monday after our wedding and headed to the Dominican Republic.  It was a place we would probably never go back to and we had an absolutely perfect time.
* Beach
* Pool
* Continuous drinks with umbrellas and fruity flavors
* Fun shows in the evening
* 7 different restaurants on our resort
* 24 Hour room service

Enough talking...I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

I'm back!

Hi Everyone!!! 

I'm back from my time away from the blogging world!  I have missed catching up on friends' blogs, reading about new home decorating projects and now I can probably stop reading wedding blogs because I AM MARRIED!!!

A  lot has happened over the past two months, and I probably can't take the time to fill you in on everything but here's the jist (sp?)

1.) New home w/ the new hubby

2.) Started a new job

3.) Got married and we went to DR for our honeymoon (this will definitely be a post soon).

Life is great.  I'm soo incredibly happy, no more stress, just enjoying the time with Brian, learning my new job and RELAXING!  I cannot tell you the last time I relaxed...took Ellie on a walk...watched TV for a full Saturday afternoon.

I'm enjoying every minute of it! 

More posts on wedding and honeymoon and updated house pictures to come.  But for right now, I have to get to work!

Have a great Thursday!!

I'm so sorry!

I have failed at posting anything about my life lately.

In the past month I have...

1) started a new job

2) moved to a new house and painted the entire first floor (well almost, we have 1 more coat of the entry room left)

3) 1 month out from my wedding - lots of planning and finishing things for the big day.

I'm kinda stressed to be honest.  I don't like to get stressed, I think it is a sign of weakness.  (not for you, but for me).  I like to be in control, to have everything in order, to do in my way (yes I know I sound like a b&*%) but I'm just a very anal person when it comes to my life and being in control of it.

I'm a control freak - there I admit it! 

Right now I feel like I am going in 100 directions, I can't keep track of my to-do lists to keep track of to do lists, etc.  So needless to say something had to give.  That was my blog.  After I get back from the honeymoon (Dominican Republic baaaabbbbbbbbbaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy!!!!) I will update you on the house, my new job, life in general and start getting fun wtih this blog again! 

I PROMISE!

Moving Day is Approaching!!!

I can't believe this day has finally come!!! Only 4 more days and Brian and I will be getting the keys to our first home!!!!

I am beyond excited!!!

We take possession on June 4th...let the cleaning and painting begin!  I've already taken before pictures {here}.  But don't you worry, I will be taking pictures as we get changes done around the house.  

We officially move on June 9th -- this time we hired movers!  Smart thinking on our parts, I know! 

WOOHOO!!!

Here are a few sneak peaks.

Of course I'm not going to let you see all of the details or a full view of each item.  

But you get to see a little sneak peak.  

Less than 2 months away and I will be MRS. ALEXANDER!
