that's how our house is starting to become our home. We bought some bushes (or shrubs, whatever) to put in our backyard. The sunflowers we planted 2 weeks ago in our little flowerbed have sprouted up, along with the other flowers we planted.
This weekend, we will probably finally plant our garden. We are planning to grow tomatoes, green peppers, potatoes, asparagus, and some herbs. We're still working on the grass for the backyard, however.
And, we may be painting soon. So far, we've only picked out a color for our living room. And it was such a hard decision! But I know it'll be fun for the rest of the house too.
We're just about 1 month away from our 1 year anniversary! Time has flown by.

Lucky streak...
Don and I will be seeing Kenny Chesney here in Houston on May 3rd! I won tickets on a local radio channel!!! Wooo!
We get set up for internet and cable on Monday. Finally!
Next weekend, we'll be planting our garden! This past weekend we bought an avocado tree and planted that. Hopefully I can get some exciting video up of that.
Now it's time to start dinner. Don's a trooper for putting up with my cooking. It's not bad, but definitely experimental. Let's try this with that... So tonight I'll be cooking chicken breasts on top of long grain wild rice and bacon, diced tomatoes and black olives. We'll see how it goes. It usually ends up good :)

A brief update...
It's 9 days until we get internet. Right now, we're using my parent's internet. So, I'll give a brief summary of what's happened:
We closed! We got our keys at noon on our closing day, and moved in that afternoon!! We've been busy busy busy getting all the necessities we couldn't forsee until actually moving into our home. So far, so good. I can't wait to start updating everything to how I want it. The house is still a work in progress, but that's just fine with me :)
A great new addition to our living room is our 42" Plasma TV! I won it in a drawing at my gym!! I still can't believe it, and we've had it for over a week!
And here is a video tour of the house. It's just the basics now, but soon it'll become more like our home :)
