Making myself busy

I am such a procrastinator when it comes to work and grading papers. I find that the busier I am at work, the most at-home projects I do.

Here is a catch-up on what I have been doing...

I figured that I am not going to wait around for my professional wedding pictures. It has almost been 6 months and we still don't have our proofs. I am guessing that an album may be years away! Instead, I developed pictures from my friends and family and put them together in an album from Target! It took a lot of work uploading them all into Snapfish, ordering, and then putting them in order but I am so happy to have almost 300 pictures organized!I love the cream embroidery along the left side. I love how it can hold 10 pages for each full spread. Getting ready in the hotel...Making it official... Formal pics with the family and bridal party...I am so thankful that we had people snapping pictures. Most are from my cousin, Jessica, who pretty much just followed us around the Jewel Box snapping away! Thanks girl :)

The boys are working on the kitchen and I was surprised with some Valentine's Day flowers!From Home Depot! He was out getting grout and spacers for the tiles and picked up flowers. That is why I love that kid :)

I rolled coins today! $87.50!I also put on my wedding dress. Veil too. Haha...I didn't take pictures. Of course, it doesn't fit but at least I had fun parading around the house. I am thinking about selling it...although I don't know if anyone would even want to buy it.

I looked for boxer adoption organizations in Missouri. Here is the baby that started it all for me. Stella is my second-cousin's dog that I met when we went to Vegas for my bachelorette party. So cute.Remember that I mentioned we need a new roof? Here is a pic of the damage in our living room.Our first quote was $5000. Pretty sad. Then another company said they could patch and replace shingles on problem areas for $800. They said that we still have 4-5 years left in our roof. I think we might take that route. Thinking about abandoning our unplanned trip to Napa Valley this summer was pretty depressing. I really wanted to go there and now it might still be a reality!Here is what is happening in my kitchen today...
